Hello friends and Happy Humpday! I’m back real quick with the second installment of EOY gift ideas. Today we’re recognizing the hard working ladies in the office. They field and treat NUMEROUS daily health related & accident cases, track attendance, disperse forgotten items that are dropped off late, supervise students during recess and lunch who … [Read more…]
We have 19 school days left until summer. In my head that’s almost 4 weeks. Which is a long time. BUT, I’m learning that lots of folks will be sunscreening up, heading to the beach/pool/lake/etc. way sooner than we will, so I’m popping in real quick and sharing this little teacher gift that I’ve been … [Read more…]
Well, we definitely didn’t starve over Spring Break. We finally went to Toppers Pizza and managed to eat there 4 times in 5 days. I’m addicted to the salad bar, but the pizza is fabulous, too! We took Jay there yesterday for lunch as he was unable to join us in our numerous earlier visits. … [Read more…]
Hello, friends! It’s Spring Break over here at FFF and we just returned from a few days at the beach. We were invited to share a beautiful beach house with some friends in Oxnard, just about 50 miles west of us. The trip is a quick hour door-to-door which is the perfect getaway in my … [Read more…]

Hello and Happy-day-after-St. Patrick’s Day! Our day of {all things green} was just like any other Monday pretty much. It started out with my favorite pair of gold Havaianas having a blowout in the same spot as all my other well-loved pairs. The little part between the toe gave way and forced me to switch … [Read more…]
In 2013 Jay and I went to a beautiful convalidation {when the Catholic church “convalidates” a civil marriage} in April, an emotional vow renewal in July, a tropical 25th wedding anniversary in October and a gorgeous wedding on a sunny afternoon in November. Each one was sacred and an honor to attend. All these precious … [Read more…]
This past Saturday we celebrated our PS3/Minecraft/Skylanders/Wii lovin’ little man with an early morning game truck pajama party. How’s that for a run-on theme? While doing my research on local game trucks, I noticed that the rates were lower if the party was held before noon. I was shooting for a 10am-12pm time slot, but … [Read more…]
A couple weekends ago we ventured out to shoot some fun valentine photos. Jay actually rented a camera and a lens to try out for the weekend so it was perfect. Trying our best to capture more pictures and videos of the kids because these days, weeks, months and years are going by way too … [Read more…]
We experienced a big milestone this week. It happened quickly. My mama heart didn’t have time to prepare. Holden had complained about one of his top teeth hurting when he bit into things, but it wasn’t visibly loose. He was eating his cereal on Tuesday morning and apparently his spoon got caught in the space … [Read more…]
