Pizza Bread
Every Friday night at our house is movie night with homemade pizza. My kids just can't wait each week for our movie/pizza night to roll around, but I have to admit that some weeks I don't want to roll out and make pizzas. A couple of weeks ago, I didn't feel like...
American Pride
I am getting so excited for the 4th of July celebrations tomorrow! I love the 4th of July so much that I just couldn't pass up an opportunity to do something patriotic on my nails. Some years I just play off the idea of red, white and blue. Other years I just do...
Summer Salad

Hard-Boiled Eggs
Life has been so crazy the last couple of weeks with my husband traveling, me being sick, kids sick, grandfather passing, and etc. Hopefully life will slow down for a moment so that I can catch my breathe. Something that calms my mind when life gets hectic is simple...
I Lived!
Two weeks ago, my grandfather passed away. He was a good man. I have such wonderful memories of him and his love for me. I miss him, but am happy he can now move on with his eternal progression. Before his passing, my cousin was inspired to collect all of my grandpa's...
