Helping Busy Moms Take Back Their Lives!
Welcome back to Get Motivated Mondays, where we talk about ways to stay motivated in losing weight and getting healthier! Today, I have a special guest that I’ve interviewed about her success so far with the T-tapp exercise program. I met her on a Facebook group for moms with lots of children. I was so impressed with her quick results, I asked if she’d share a little more about her
How to get your paintbrushes clean once the paint has already dried on them…. We’re about to start on some more painting projects now that it’s warm enough again! I was out in my building (kind of like our garage with no overhead door, but we store our tools and outdoorsy type projects out there) and ran into this paint brush that I once thought was beyond hope. I remembered
I caught a glimpse of the sun going down tonight and it reminded me of my need for sunlight! Welcome back to Get Motivated Mondays! I’ve been having a hard time with staying motivated this past week. I’ve been feeling a bit down and just plain grumpy. Of course, it rained most of the week and I had little chance to get any sunshine throughout the week. I didn’t really
On March 23rd, 1996, I got married to my dear husband, Ryan. I was 19, he was 20. Just a couple of kids. We eloped…..kind of. We eloped, but we took our family with us. So, in attendance, we had a total of 10 people, including us. 11 if you count the “minister”. My parents, his parents, my sister and her husband and my grandparents. This is us with
Today, I’m posting over at Homemakers Challenge. I’m sharing about a new way I learned in order to clean our ceiling fans. Do you ever just dread the mess you’re going to make on the floor when you’re cleaning them? Click on over and I’ll share what we do to help eliminate that mess! If you get a chance while you’re there, leave a comment, too. I love to know
I’ve had a couple of nasty stains that I’d been needing to try to do something with. In fact, one of them, I was going to overlook. My baby’s poopy diaper had leaked right onto my cream colored bed sheet. I washed it and accidentally dried it without checking it first to see if the stain had come out. When I next went to put it on the bed, my
An Easy Project to Reuse & Recycle #10 Cans Since we have a large family of 8 people, we go through A LOT of food! Before we had children, we could not eat a loaf of bread before it would get moldy. Now, we sometimes buy 10 loaves at a time! We also try to save money by buying #10 cans of food. The most common thing we buy in them
Hello everyone! Did you all have a great weekend? It was beautiful weather! We enjoyed a nice night away for our anniversary. We got our room on Priceline and stayed in a nice 3.5 star hotel. We did some fun shopping for clothes and shoes, we went to a movie and out to our favorite restaurant, Texas Roadhouse. If you enjoy eating ribs, Texas Roadhouse has THE BEST fall off
My little baby. He’s growing up so fast! Being the sidetracked person that I am, my thoughts today have been very random. Instead of a focused post, you get to read my crazy, randomness. (This post contains affiliate links) Next Friday is our 16th wedding anniversary! Sometimes, I can’t believe that I’ve been alive that long, let alone married that long! We are going away on a special anniversary trip.
While we were making these handprint butterflies (link will be visible early Wednesday morning), my 12 year old daughter decided that she should make a fun butterfly craft, too. We decided that they turned out so cute, we should share them here with you all so that you can make them! What you need: Construction Paper in 2-3 colors Popsicle Stick Glue Take the Popsicle stick and trace around it. Cut it out and
A few weeks ago, we had a big, scary storm with lots of high winds. My daughter was looking out the window right when she saw the wind pick our trampoline up off the ground and slam it up against the house, onto it’s side. Our new trampoline. The one with the net that goes around it that the kids absolutely love! The one their grandparents got them for Christmas.
A Natural Heartburn Remedy My husband has struggled with heartburn ever since I have known him. He would pop over the counter antacid pills like they were candy in the early years. Later, while we were in the Army, he would get some prescription antacid’s that were a little heavier duty, but still he would have problems with awaking suddenly in the night with a sudden onset of heartburn. In
