My Love Bug...

***Please go down and pause the playlist!***


I was uploading photos and video to photobucket today and I found this video. Hadley was in Kindergarten. I had almost forgotten how sweet and 'little' she sounded/was then. This video made me all warm and fuzzy inside but very, very sad as well. I need to remember the good times to get through...but it is also hard to remember the happy times...it reminds me how bad she is doing now. =(




Hadley was on chemo when GG and Papa bought her the LoveBug and unfortunately she was lost in a tragic chemo puke incident. =(

My Handsome Spectacled Keegan.

Keegan's glasses were finally ready for pick up today. He and I went and got them. I have to tell you that I am already SO thankful for them. A few minutes after we left he was already commenting on how much better he could see and how much 'bigger' things looked. All of that AND he looks ADORABLE in them. =)

Tis The Season...

Liam's Party Pics.

The only thing Liam wanted for his birthday this year was a party at Chuck E. Cheese. This is the first year he's had 'school friends' to invite to a party. I gave in to mommy guilt and let him invite his entire class. =) It was 'fun'...in the way that I love seeing my kids have fun sort of way. In every other way it was...crazy. =)

Here are some of the pics.

Works for me...

Those who know me know that I am a sucker for the latest and greatest product. Especially if it is a cleaning product. I'd love to say that it's because I just love cleaning...but then I'd be a huge liar. I don't love to clean but, I do love having a clean home. So, I think I buy new products to keep myself motivated. =) I like sharing my opinions with those around me because I hate spending money on things and being disappointed. =)

So, here is my RAVE. Arm and Hammer Essentials Cleaner/Degreaser. Love, love, LOVE it. http://www.sustainableisgood.com/blog/2008/10/armhammer.html http://www.armandhammeressentials.com/index.aspx

First it costs less than the other cleaners I usually keep on hand. The starter kit was $3.79 (at Target) and includes an empty spray bottle and one small 'refill' cartridge. The refills come in packs of 2 for $3.79 ($1.89 each).

Secondly you use the same spray bottle over and over. This not only creates less waste but, let's face it...it's one less thing in the grocery bags. =) The refill cartridges are easy to use. You don't even have to 'open' them. You unscrew a cap then screw it onto the top of the bottle. There is a piece of plastic inside that cuts the the 'foil' and it empties into the bottle. Then you fill the bottle with tap water.

Third, it smells and works GREAT! =) No harsh chemical smells. It smells fresh and clean. It leaves everything clean and shiny with no sticky residue.

This is one product I am so glad I tried. =)

Dear Kyle,

Dear Kyle,

Thank you for fighting for our freedom. How great is it to be there?

Keegan wrote this at school for Veteran's Day. =) He's such a sweetie. My cousin, Kyle, is on his 2nd tour in the Middle East with the Marine Corps. Please be praying for his safe return home.
