Tattoo Tuesday – My Life Motto

Welcome to another instalment of Tattoo Tuesday. The past 2 years have presented us with some of our most challenging issues of our lives.

Top 5 Ways To Ruin Mother’s Day

Mother’s day is less than 2 weeks away and this year Mother’s day also happens to fall on my birthday. Yay me.

Life Is Good #97

My little babies turned 5 in March! I can’t believe how fast time is flying by. Although the birthday party was a success and fun was had by all, thanks to Petland and Nana’s spectacular cakes; later that evening we were rushing Hilary to the Children’s Hospital via 911 and an ambulance. Long story short, her tonsillectomy site was bleeding … Continue reading

I’m In The Picture (week 9)

I know it’s been a while since I posted a pic with me in it. Let’s just say, I’ve been busy and leave it at that. So this is a picture of Abby and I at her 5th birthday party.
