Our Zoo Trip

We took the girls to the zoo Sunday.  It was a big surprise.  They have been wanting to go and we finally took them.  They really had a great time!  We even had a picnic for lunch.  They see all this stuff on the shows they watch and want to do it as well.  SO, we saw the elephants like "Little Bill", we had a picnic like "Oswald", and then we also got to help "Dora & Diego" save the rainforest in the 4D movie they had there.

After our exploration of the animals, the girls got to play on the Garden Friends Playground.

All in all we had a great trip to the zoo!  The girls are ready to go back again!  

What a wonderful way to spend the day as a family!

A Trip to the Zoo

My girls have been wanting to go to the zoo for a while now.  Finally, Sunday, we are going to take the girls to the zoo!  They are going to love all of the animals, actually seeing them in person.

I was looking at the website and found that they are showing a 4D movie

Dora & Diego.  My girls are going to LOVE that!

I can not wait to see the girls faces when they find out where we are going.  I haven't told them that we are going so it is going to be a BIG surprise. I think I am just going to wait until we pull in and they see the signs.

I will take plenty of pictures to share after we get home!

Relay For Life

Tonight is the Alamance County Relay for Life.  My family will be there to support and honor my mother in law, Donna Strickland, Grandmother in law, Margie Perry, as well as my aunt, Sue Bridges.

Last year was the first year that we attended this event and it was AMAZING!  There were so many purple shirts going around that track!  What an amazing sight to see all of those SURVIVORS!!!!

Tonight we will be there again to witness the Survivor Walk and then to join in and walk along also.

A Mommy's Job is Never Done!

As a Mommy, we have so many jobs to do, and they never end!

It's pretty exhausting when you sit and actually think about all the hats we wear!

Cook, maid, driver, nurse, psychologist, seamstress, personal shopper, secretary, financial advisor, event planner, organizer, travel agent, historian, tutor, teacher, nanny, pet care: and the list goes on and on.

Although we juggle many hats, we Mommas rarely complain. Its our job to do those things and most of all to love those little bundles of joy!

I am so blessed to have two beautiful girls as well as a wonderful husband!

I wouldn't trade any of my hats for anything!


I love my family!

Our Family Garden

My husband and I have been living in this house for going on 7 years and have only ever planted grass.

Finally this year we have started our very own garden. Yay! I am so excited!
This is a family project. Our girls really loved helping with the planting and now with the watering. We started the garden Easter weekend and already have plants coming up from our seeds we planted.

We did have a little mole decide he wanted to travel through and distroyed a few of our plants but we took care of him.


I love seeing the girls faces when we go out and there is a new plant growing. They are really excited because they helped plant everything. I can not wait until we actually get to start picking the vegetables that we grew.
The girls are REALLY going to love that!

Starting w/ New

Well, I decided that I should start a new blog for my family and personal writings.

I have been posting all on one blog however, its not exactly working since I have it set to age restricted for content. As many of you know, or maybe you don't, I am a romance consultant with Brown Bag Party. I blog about my business over at Bold and Beautiful Party Girl.

So, here I am with another blog! I just hope that I can actually keep up with posting on this one! Should be pretty easy since, there is ALWAYS something going on in this lil life of mine!

A bit about me:

I have been married to my wonderful hubby for almost 7 years now.
We have 2 beautiful girls: Savanah age 4 and Sarah (almost 3).
I am a SAHM/WAHM.

Okay, back to the everyday chores of being a mommy!

It's almost naptime!
