If you’re looking for a good, easy meal to enjoy when the temperatures dip, this is your new favorite. You can even enjoy it in warmer weather, since its made in a crock pot/slow cooker and it doesn’t heat up your house. For those of you who are shivering, I’ve got something that will warm…
“Guys are so hard to buy for.” How many times have you heard this or said this? Guys are hard to buy for, especially at the more modest price point. Soap on a rope isn’t really a thing anymore (remember that?) and men don’t wear ties as often as they used to. There’s only so…
Have you heard of DCapella? If you haven’t it’s okay…it’s the relatively new kid on the Disney block. Yep, I said Disney. Do I have your attention now, Disney fans? Thought so. DCappella is an seven-person A Cappella group that falls under Disney Music Group and I had the pleasure of seeing them live at…
We have a 16 year-old SUV (yes, really!) and a six year-old minivan (not sexy, but super practical.) We just put what we swore was going to be the last chunk of money into our SUV – which is what my husband drives to work ever day (4o miles round trip) and we’re trying to…
I love oatmeal. I love old-fashioned oatmeal you make on top of the stove. I love steel cut oats in my crock pot. I even love those little packets of flavored instant oatmeal. But I’m afraid I’ve been spoiled for life because I’ve discovered the oatmeal of all oatmeals in this Envy Apple and blueberry…
Disneyland closed the Haunted Mansion and It’s a Small World! Whhaaaat? Relax, they will reopen soon without Christmas decor for regular operation. However, there is no date yet on when these attractions will reopen. Regular maintenance is part of the Disney experience. Some things will be going down this year for a short time, others…
People ask us for adoption advice or ask us questions about adoption all the time. Sometimes, the questions are kind of insensitive. I’ve kind of gotten used to the adoption questions, even the ones that make my roll my eyes like: “Where did you get them?” “What happened to their real parents?” And, my personal…
We are warm weather people. We live in San Antonio Texas where winter isn’t really a thing. Don’t laugh, but if the temps dip below 70, we’re pulling out the heavy coats and cancelling plans. Okay…maybe I’m embellishing a little bit but my point is, we’re not used to real winters or driving in snowy…
San Angelo is a gem of a small town in West Texas. Known as “An Oasis in West Texas,” San Angelo is located along the heart of the Concho River in the heart of ranching country. It’s a great place to discover western frontier heritage, cultural attractions, and, of course food. But what about the…
As a mom, I cherish family time. I love doing things with my husband and kids. But. I love my time with my husband AWAY from my kids and I love my time away from the whole lot of them, too. As much as I love being a wife and a mom, I need some…
