It’s been kinda quiet around here lately. The phone hasn’t been ringing as much as it usually does. And when I have talked to girlfriends it’s stiff and weird. One of my more forthright gfriends said to me “People don’t know what to say to you” and I guess that’s true. So instead of saying…

I figure I’ll start with the bad news then move on to fun cruise pics. I don’t blog every thing. Some things I keep to myself. Some news I don’t share, especially in regards to our quest for a child, because if things don’t work out then I have that many more people asking questions…

October is my favorite month. I share my love of October with Shannon who is going to become Senora Mustachio this month! Woo! I love October because the weather is AWESOME here. Blue skies, open windows at night, a bit of a nip in the air, and best of all, no more sweating. Also, October…

I am so mad I could just scream over something I read on Mary Mia’s blog. Teleflora, a flower delivery service: www.Teleflora.com, is running a contest- America’s Favorite Mom. On the page that lists the semi-finalists for the contest they have broken down the moms into different categories: military mom, single mom, etc. But do…

The Saturday before Christmas Jake and I went to the airport to welcome home Shannon, Mustachio & Emily from China! When I called Sara to ask if I could take the boys (Joey couldn’t go, he had to go to bed), Sara asked Jake “Do you want to go with Aunt Shanny to the airport?”…

Shannon is leaving to go pick up Emily in China! I’m so so so excited for her & Mustachio! And I can’t wait to meet Emily! Godspeed y’all! xoxo
