Family Focus Friday | I Lied Blatantly
I have a parent confession this week. I lied blatantly. It was a conscious decision. And it’s a weight that carried with me all through this week. And I felt so ugly.

Family Focus Friday | Summer Is Zoo-y
How’s your summer going? Between chauffeuring my kids around town and trying to get that thing called work done, I have one word to sum up our summer so far. A “zoo.” So it was only fitting that we took our little monkeys to the zoo for a weekend family outing. Today’s Family Focus Friday is trip to the Brevard Zoo. It sure was zoo-y.
First Sno Cone Moment | Family Focus Friday
First Sno Cone Moment | Family Focus Friday
Birthday parties are awesome, especially when they aren’t mine! We recently welcomed in summer in grand fashion! HUGE Bouncy-Slide turned into a water slide, tons of kids screaming, smiling and covered in muddy/grassy/ wet goo…and sno cones. Remember those things? They do packages now for bouncy houses and sno cone machines. Who knew? So I was able to lovingly capture my daughter’s first sno cone. And it was epically amazing.

Family Focus Friday | The Shut Up Challenge
Family Focus Friday | The Shut Up Challenge
“So, are you gonna blog about that?” It’s a line I often hear now that I’m a blogger. Sometimes at the end of a joke. Sometimes just a way of trying to get me to talk. But sometimes it’s a challenge. It’s not often that I step up to the challenge. But this week, I was very intrigued. Hence the birth of The Shut Up Challenge.
Family Focus Friday | Bragging Without Guilt
Family Focus Friday | Bragging Without Guilt
Bragging. It’s a word that has a negative connotation in today’s society. To share good news about someone (yes, even about oneself) is often times looked down upon, seen as snotty, righteous and selfish. We seem to be so focused now on making sure that everyone feels as miserable as I do. But can I ask a favor for today? Put down your skeptical glasses and join me in a day of bragging without guilt. Allow me to share some good news about each of my family members, and even humbly brag about myself without that weight of you whispering behind my back. Can you do that for me today? Fabulous! Here goes…
Family Focus Friday | The April Fools Is On Me
Family Focus Friday | The April Fools Is On Me
I don’t think I’ve ever felt so many emotions in a 2 minute period in my life. It was horrifying. It was gut wrenching. It was relieving. It was a single moment in my parenthood where I felt like a complete failure and champion at the same time. And of course, it was April Fools Day. If anyone has told you that God does not have a sense of humor, you’re so wrong. Because this Wednesday, the April Fools is on me…and I had to think that God was definitely laughing at this one.

Family Focus Friday | Spring Break Gone Wild
I know, I know. It’s been awhile since I’ve done the Family Focus Friday. Trust me when I say it’s been on my mind. But of course, deadlines, family duties, that sleep thing….I had way too much on my plate. That’s not to say family focus has not been on my mind. In fact, on Spring Break this week it’s been awesome to reconnect with my kids deeply, step away from the computer, and enjoy Spring Break as it was meant to be. A break! So what have we done on our Spring Break Gone Wild…with kids? Well 🙂
Family Focus Friday | From Behind Never Looked So Good
Family Focus Friday | From Behind Never Looked So Good
So I’m a little “behind,” but we actually had no plans this year for Valentine’s Day. I know, weird. So in an effort to make the most of the day, we decided to plan something fun AND during the day for the kids. Grabbing a friend and her son, we headed down for an afternoon or overstimulation at our local bowling alley and arcade. Nothing too amazing. But I didn’t expect the pictures that made the day absolutely priceless.

It’s Friday the 13th. And it’s also the Friday before Valentine’s Day. But fear not, because I am not here to scare you. This post today is all about LOVE. My marriage proposal.
