There was a bit of a debate at my book club last night.
We were discussing the bestselling book “Happiness is a Serious Problem” by Dennis Prager. Prager tell us that that the only way to achieve happiness is to take responsibility for your life rather than blaming others and how to treat happiness not as an end goal but [...]

I love to cook. Something about the smell and the feel of the ingredients under my hands. As I chop away the tension also starts to flow. That is unless there are screaming kids under my feet. Then I’m yelling, HOT STOVE! EVERYBODY OUT!
But as they get older they join in with me and we [...]

4th of July was a big hit though

It has some cranky times. Sorry Jakey- Mommy had to take a photo.

Gabby spent most of her time in the pool. This was a rare moment out of the water. But then it was only seconds- notice the droplets.

Brianna loved the corn. She ate 3 [...]

There’s a chewed  piece of bubble gum stuck to my foot. I’m not lying. I just noticed it. Don’t ask because I have no idea.
I also have a tattoo on said foot. My only tattoo. It means earth. It hurt. My BFF has one too.

Currently this is my special place.

Here’s John and Nemo! He’s looking so serene meanwhile here’s me…

Here John got my attention and was trying to tell [...]

Leaf Van Boven, an assistant psychology professor at the University of Colorado at Boulder, who has studied the topic of happiness and well-being, says that if you really want to be happier you need to stop buying more stuff and start doing more. “An orientation toward life experiences tends to make people happier than an [...]

My husband popped up suddenly after dinner and started making this tent. The kids were thrilled and I- a little perplexed. He explained, “Some of the greatest memories from childhood were spent under a makeshift tent in the living room.”
They sat there for hours snuggled in watching a movie. Every once in a while rustling [...]

I’m thinking I should take more risks. That I should step outside the box and just go with things that speak to my soul. I always envied the woman that was going to wear a purple hat when she got old. Why? I could wear a purple hat if I wanted to . But something [...]

We took this photo on a boat to Green Island, Australia. Brianna was mesmerized by the ocean, the sharks and the other incredibly friendly passengers.
Only later when I was analyzing the photo did we notice the details!
The Road Less Traveled…
