Happy Wednesday, y'all! This week has already gotten away from me... I knew I'd be busy this summer, but MAN! We had a minor flood in our basement storage room over the weekend so I've been sorting through that mess on top of what I already had on tap for the week. #Boo. Anyway, I'm popping in today to share what I'm reading, working on, and loving right now... A couple of weeks ago I mentioned that I'd strayed from my bookish ways and had … [Read more...]

Book Review: Raising Grateful Kids in an Entitled World
I had hoped to get this review up a week ago, but at last here it is... I have lingered in this book. I posted this photo a few weeks back when I was first digging into the reading and it got quite the reaction on Facebook.

And that word "entitlement" is … [Read more...]

I'm usually not that great at … [Read more...]
This ‘n That Monday
Hi friends... Well, I checked out again for a bit, but I'm back! I spent 10 days in Texas with my family at the beginning of October, taking in some Texas Aggie football and then trekking to Amarillo to celebrate my dad's 80th birthday. It was such sweet family time... And so then, when I got back, I had to hit the ground running for Legacy (more on that this week). And so while I intended to post last week, life got in … [Read more...]
In Case You Missed It {July and August}
Well, here we are! The last day of August... how did that happen?? This was a summer of sporadic posting, some story-telling, and a few technical issues here on the blog that I'm still trying to figure out. May be time to call in a professional! #ugh Today I'm going to recap my posts from July and August... just in case you missed something! I shared my favorite Fourth of July projects and recipes from years past, along with this … [Read more...]
Five on Friday
Happy Friday, y'all! The hubs and I are headed to Pensacola for the Blue Angels this weekend and I can't wait. I've been itching to get to the coast and this particular weekend is always a great time. I had a busy week this week -- busy in a good way with projects and planning projects and just kinda catching up around the house. Nice, right? And it's time for 5 fun and random things... 1. Summer sales. Y'all. Those 4th of July sales … [Read more...]
