Today would have been my dad's 61st birthday

This photo was taken during his grade school years. It is a blessing to have all these old photographs of my father so I can share them with Sam and Julia.











It was fun to spend this particular afternoon with my younger sisters. We never do anything just the three of us and have decided that needs to change. We saw a performance of Beauty & the Beast which was rather fitting since we all loved Disney movies as kids.









Happy Birthday Dad from your girls.

    I didn't realize you had young sisters.. how old are they? I also have a younger sister who is 13 years younger and is 17 now. We always have a riot when she finds time in her busy teenage schedule to spend time with me :)

    Katie is 22 and Kara is 20. It's nice to have them both living in the cities near me. Now we just need to make the effort to get together more often.

    Are there just the two of you then Merranda?

    No actually.. i have quite the blended family of sorts. 2 full brothers, 1 half brother, 1 half sister, and 4 step sisters.. its a complicated situation. But I grew up living with my 2 brothers and half sister.

"How can I help?"

So many have asked how they can help MckMama and her family during this difficult time and so I've set up a Care Calendar to help coordinate meals for the family. MckMama is coordinating childcare on her end, but you can contact me for the rest. Please leave me a comment in this message and I will contact you with more information on the Care Calendar as soon as I am able. Please be sure I can get in touch with you through your blog and/or an email address. Thank you for covering my dear friend and her family with prayers!

Shabby Apple Giveaway!

Spring is in the air and that means it's time to start thinking about changing over our closets from Winter to Spring. I don't know about you, but that also means it's time to look for a few new pieces to bring new life to what I wear year after year. Today I can make that job a little more fun for you because Shabby Apple is sponsoring a giveaway on my blog! Yeah!!!! I had so much fun looking through their collection of women's dresses and don't even get me started on their adorable line of little girl's dresses ! It's a whole new ballgame for me now that I'm going to have TWO girls to dress. In the end I decided to pick this beauty called Azure Coast to giveaway to one lucky reader because us mom's are always buying things for our kids before ourselves.

My birthday happened to fall on a Monday - the day we set a few hours aside for me to do some of the cleaning that I just don't have time for during the work week. I love it. I get that immediate sense of accomplishment. I see results. I finished a task. Oh how that makes my heart happy!!!!! In my line of work it can be months before I can check a project off my list. All the while it nags at me and weighing me down like a ton of bricks that projects are waiting for me. Don't get me wrong, I love love love my job, but I also love that instant gratification that comes with checking something off my list. So when Mondays roll around I am happy to pick up my dust cloth or a basket of laundry....even on my birthday. I don't have any great birthday reflections for today....maybe another day. Instead I want to share my birthday wish with you dear readers. What I wan...
