Going From Mom, To Moment Master {Choosing A Camera}

Wednesday, September 1st, 2010

For those of you who don’t know me, I am a MOPS mommy through and through.  Four years ago when I walked into my first MOPS group I was in a very dark place emotionally.  I had started staying home with my daughter six months prior, and let’s just say it was not going as I had fantasized it would for all of those years I’d been working in the corporate world.  After my first meeting, I cried.

Not because it was bad, but because it made me realize just how alone I had been.  I was living in complete isolation, and the fact that I didn’t need to be, was now right there in my face. (more…)

Mamapedia and Pirates Cove

Friday, July 2nd, 2010

For those of you who’ve been with me for awhile, you probably remember that we LOVE Pirates Cove.

So, when mamapedia posted a great deal on the entry fees, I could not resist.

You shouldn’t either.

So, click here and spend a little, but get a lot.

You won’t regret it.

Although you might regret not buying that cute bathing suit you’ve had your eye on.

But now that you’ve saved so much money on the pool you can afford it.

See?  I’m helpful.

And random.
