The Spectacular Binky Boy!

Watch this spectacular event of not one but TWO binky's disappear!

Okay, they didn't exactly disappear, but he is pretty spectacular isn't he!?


Warm weather means bubble time!

For those who aren't in the know, when warm weather finally comes around it's best to be sure you have plenty of bubble solution on hand for the kids. My kids end up on our porch for HOURS playing with the bubbles. I admit I have fun doing it too. It's relaxing.

Another excuse to show off my kids

Getting an 'Egg' start on Easter

We were at Lowe's getting a new plant for our front room and I saw all of these ceramic eggs that you are supposed to crack open, water, and watch a flower plant grow. I thought it was fabulous, and wanted Izzy to try it out. She dropped it as we were paying for it which put cracks in it that went the wrong way. That is why there is a rubber band around it. So far no plant.


I am constantly trying new shampoo, make-up, perfume, etc. Every once and a while I'll find a keeper, but nothing to really rave about till now. As you all know I've started jogging everyday, and I am not one of those type who can sit around in your sweat all day (sorry to be gross). So I've been trying different liquid Body Wash soap to see which was the best, and I have a winner!
C.O. Bigelow Mentha Body Vitamin Body Wash!
Absolutely love it! It really makes your skin tingle, and the peppermint smell rejuvenates me after a hard work out. Totally recommend it.

Drinking Chocolate


Speaking of Hot Chocolate (mentioned in my post before this one) I was watching the Food Network a few days ago and they did a segment on Drinking Chocolate. Apparently its NOT a new concept in Europe, but there is hot cocoa which is a powdered drink and drinking chocolate which is actual chocolate melted down into a drink. Now wouldn't that be something to try! I'll have to try it one of these days.

Its Snowing in Georgia!

Yesterday it was raining so hard that it was dark midday. It finally cleared up at about 6:00 p.m. Imagine to my surprise when I took the dog out this morning to see slush coming down. I made a mental note to dress myself and the kids warm for church today. As I finished getting everybody ready I noticed that slush had turned to snow and it was coming down fast. Big huge fluffy snowflakes are covering the ground right now as I right this blog. Its amazing and so beautiful to see here in Georgia. Shaun didn't feel comfortable with me driving the kids to church by myself so we stayed in (Shaun had to work) and I made Hot Apple Cider. Its Izzy's and I favorite drink now because I cool it down with some flavored cream, like the kind you put in hot chocolate or coffee. It may sound weird but it turned out really yummy. I can no longer go back to hot chocolate, plus cider has lots of good vitamin C.
