They say you learn best through experience, but how quick is new information applied? We take our children to tons of educational places and give them educational experiences at all the zoo’s and museums that we go to but is any of it sinking in or are they just seeing a myriad of stimulating factors? Our last gym … Continue reading

Free Writing
This is free writing… no travel pics, tips or ideas this time. Today I spent a small portion trying to clear my head, my head has been swimming and spinning with all that’s occupying it’s attention. My big issue now is that I have been given some opportunities and in reflect on these opportunities I realized that i’m burned out. … Continue reading
Pumpkin Patch Fun
So I’m not sure if it’s everyone’s tradition to go to a pumpkin patch in October or if it’s just us. And since my son is currently at a field trip with his school at Holiday Farms which looks pretty darn awesome, thought i’d share our faves and most recent patches.

Atlanta weekend in pics
This past weekend, I had to travel to Atlanta on “business” and was so stoked to have my WHOLE family with me. After we got to our hotel room we trekked up to Peachtree Center to take the kids on “the escalator” because I loved riding it as a teen probably a lot more fun … Continue reading

It’s weird cause I started applying after her, we’ve both a bunch and we both … Continue reading

Home sweet home
I am really kicking myslef for not taking more pictures over the past weekend. I now live about eight hours from where I grew up, had my first job, met my husband, had my son, and got married. Many of my best friends still live in this once small town now growing into a nice … Continue reading
Five years earlier…
I was welcoming our new baby boy to our tiny little low-rent upstairs apartment. I was a young twenty year old mother, and my then boyfriend had just turned 22. We were excited.
