Our Weekend

Here are a few random things from our weekend:
I don’t have much extra money right now, but I wanted to do something to help Shiloh understand that it’s important to give at Christmas time and not just receive. Operation Christmas Child (through Samaritan’s Purse) seemed like the perfect option.
We went shopping at Walmart and I told [...]

Quick Update

Hello to the two (?) readers that haven’t left me yet. Sorry it’s been so long. I’ve been busy of course, but mostly I just haven’t had anything worth blogging about. I think I’m a little bit burned out. When I have a week, like this week, where I have very few school assignments due, I [...]

I’m Outta Here!

For the weekend anyway. Shiloh and I are headed to a women’s conference in the Smokey Mountains. We’re going with a group of women from my church and it should be a fun weekend with lots of girl time. We’re staying in a cabin and we’ll have quite a bit of free time between conferences [...]

school, school, and more school

Tonight there really isn’t any rhyme or reason to my post. I’ve been a bad blogger, but I’ve been trying to juggle so many things. So here are a few random things from my life recently… Wow, an hour ago, when I was driving home from a movie, I had twenty different things I wanted [...]

randomness

I think facebook has spoiled me. I noticed today that when I’m reading a blog, and I like something that was said, but I don’t really want to leave a comment, I start looking for a “like” button.

I’m really starting to stress about Shiloh’s face. The spot on her cheek is only about the size [...]

Hello?

Is there anyone left?  Sorry guys.  I’ve been crazy busy. 

School starts next week and the Financial Aid office keeps asking for more and more stuff. 
I had to take Shiloh to the dermatologist (out of town) on Tuesday, because she has this big spot on her face that has been there for three months now. 
And no, this [...]

A Weekend Of Firsts

Shiloh and I had a busy weekend. 
Friday afternoon she said goodbye to her friends at her old preschool.  It was sad (for me, I’m not sure she understood) and I worried that I had made the wrong decision.
Saturday morning we woke up (way too early for a day off) and went to Shiloh’s first dance [...]

This & That

Quick weekend recap:

My sister and brother-in-law were in town.
We had a girl’s night Saturday night.
Five women, two little girls, pizza, ice cream, a movie (don’t ask about the movie), and lots of talking.

You’re going to ask about the movie, aren’t you?  …Okay, it was a documentary on midwives.  I have some odd friends.  My cousin [...]

Randomness

Shiloh has been calling me old lately.  As in, “Mom, you need to go take a nap, because you’re OLD.” 
It may be my fault though.  When my mom is in town, I’ll say stuff to Shiloh like, “Nana needs her glasses because she’s old.”  I say it just to tease my mom, but I think [...]
