You may have noticed I’ve been absent on here the last couple of weeks. Things have been CRAZY with a capital C-R-A-Z-Y!
Here’s my quick version of a recap:
It started with cake. All Ferris wanted for her birthday was “cake.” Anytime anyone asked what she wanted, she said, “CAKE!” She wasn’t disappointed. We did get her [...]

I’m not AWOL. Just wanted you to know. Seems lots of churches, missionaries, evangelists and others want to spend their tax refunds on graphic design.
Happy to oblige.
Maybe I should pay myself to redesign my blog, since my youngest — who is nearly 8 months old now — is still not pictured. Ooof!
I shall [...]

“The Lemonade Award is for blogs with attitude/gratitude.” Here are the other “rules” for the Lemonade Award:
1. Put the [...]

OK, I decided (after an extensive search) to go back to my original design… but my handsome husband has to help me change the header. So for now, enjoy this retro throwback (from a year ago.)

My friend Stacey (who blogs at Avery Soup for my Soul tagged me for this little survey. You’re supposed to reveal seven random things about yourself that others may not know. This could get interesting…
1. If given the choice between chocolate and carmel, I would choose carmel 100% of the time. Chocolate’s still good, though.
2. My [...]

I’m sorry.
There… I said it. I feel better already.
