~Update:Life Just Happens~

Hi readers!

I'm so sorry to say I'm over two years behind on this blog! It honestly makes my heart just sad to think of this.

Blogging is something I really enjoy doing so much, and the only thing I can say is honestly life just happens. I think back on the last two years and I think why haven't I made time to blog. Well here is just a small glimpse into why...

1) Life with a toddler
2) Remodel of a house
3) Work of a professor teaching five writing classes at a major university
4) Being a full time mom, wife, professor, dish washer, dinner cooker, friend, daughter, sister, etc.
5) Being a member of a choir, now a new community choir
6) Mom of a preschooler, ballet dancer, gymnast, pom pom girl, etc.
7) Shuttle service
8) Part time wedding worker

I can't really think of anything else, but I also have to sleep, eat, etc. So many other things in my life have gone by the way side too.

Blogging has always been a sort of release for me...a way to come to from the daily stresses of life. To reflect back on all of the wonderful things life has given me, and I've missed that.

I've downloaded all the pictures, but I've yet to reminisce on the memories, and I'm taking a vow right now to start. I'm going to make the time to get this blog back up and going. I know it will make my heart smile looking back on all the memories made the last two years. Gosh...the holidays...Bowdre's milestones...something I want to make time for!

But I did want everyone to know we are still here...doing well...loving life!

Can't wait to catch everyone up on the last two years!

~Update on Blog~

I'm almost a full year behind on my blog, and I vowed not to let it go that far...but honestly, life has been so busy lately. Busy in a good way! One of my New Year's resolutions was to not only catch up on the blog, but to become a regular blogger again. I really blog for me...it relieves stress for me and it makes my heart happy to reminisce on all of the events that have been going on, so I promise if you are a reader of my blog...don't give up on me yet! I promise that I'm about to catch up!


I can't wait to share with you all of the things that have gone on the past year! I'll get started really soon!

~Valentine's Day 2016~

I love holidays of any kind (if you didn't know that about me already), and yes, I always tend to go over the top with things...I just can't help myself! My parent's always made a big deal, even about the smaller holidays, and I want to do the same with Bowdre.

If I remember correctly, Valentine's Day was really really cold, so I'm pretty sure we stayed in all day...but it didn't mean that the Valentine's Day cupid didn't make a stop by our house!!

Of course when Bowdre had no idea what was going on, but she was super excited about all of her new toys! A rain jacket, books, a movie, and sidewalk chalk...cupid must have really loved her this year!

Out of all of her toys, I think the sidewalk chalk was the favorite! Of course we got outside to play with it...Elle' wanted to play too!

We also had a wonderful breakfast that Warren made of sausage and pancakes!!

Happy Valentine's Day!!
