The Rooster Lives to Crow Another Year! I hope I’m this tolerant of ‘ribbing’ the day I turn 49… … and only have 1 year of my 40’s left. … and will be 50 (!) the next year… Nahhh… who am I kidding. I’ll be moping around like someone took my last glass of wine.
Today is the big, big guy’s birthday. I can’t tell you how old he is but it’s old 😉 I’ve written about Poppy D in the past, so since this supposed to be Wordless Wednesday, just go here and read it. (although I just realized, I used the same photo..) For now, just enjoy this picture and remember not to make him…
Today is the Rooster’s birthday which is the one day that he gets a break from all the crazy women in the house. Okay.. not really but we really do try to make him as comfortable and happy as possible because he puts up with a LOT from us on any given day. Join me in giving the old boy…
But this ain’t one of them. This is just me writing my 600th post 14 days before my 10th anniversary of launching this site. I’ve got a lot of good things to tell you but wanted to be selfish and have this post be just about the site. I may not be the most consistent blogger. And I rarely stay…
Man that was a shameless plug, wasn’t it?! Well, it’s true – today is my 45th birthday. When you have a birthday anywhere near Christmas, you learn pretty early on to shamelessly plug your big day as often as you can and to anyone who will listen. Fortunately, there are plenty of places to eat which are happy to celebrate…
I’m going to try to get thru this day without having a mental breakdown. Like all other occasions in our life, the first and the last are always the hardest. Today was the end of single digits in our house. It’s Cassie’s 10th Birthday. It’s all over but the crying. She’s officially a pre-teen. As if that weren’t bad enough,…
It’s May 14th. Just another day to many, but for us it’s a day of celebration. It’s Sydney’s 12th birthday! I hope you’ll help us party! I’m sure we’ll celebrate with some cake… Maybe we’ll get dressed up and hit the town… Maybe we’ll ride some rides.. Or a day at the spa? There will be stories told.. And, since…
It’s not my mom’s birthday until May, but I picked this post for The Mommy Mess’ Going Green series because I unknowingly upset Little Mama while I was in Jamaica. See.. I have this habit of sticking my foot in my mouth and while I’ve gotten much better at it as I’ve gotten older, I’m still not completely cured. In…
Dear Mackenzie, Today is your 14th birthday and the only reason that I can write this post is because I know that you never come over to this part of the woods. I can’t believe that 14 years ago you came into this world and immediately changed everything that I knew to be good and replaced it with something amazing….
Today is the “baby’s” birthday. Except she’s not a baby anymore.. today she is 9. But she’s still MY baby. Cassie was our “added bonus”. She popped up on the radar during one of the more challenging times of our lives. Steve had started a new job the year before, as had I. But fate doesn’t always pay attention to…
