I have high hopes for 2017, I want to make it a year of growth, positivity, and kindness and that is my wish for everyone! We spent our New Year's Eve at home and had a small party with family. We watched Netflix, grilled steaks, and had a snack buffet lol. Not as exciting as going to one of the big New Year's Eve parties but I was happy to spend it with my daughter and other family. I used to go to the Fiesta Bowl Block Part ..read more

It's hard to believe that I started this blog about 9 years ago! My baby was only 7 year's old and starting the first grade. Now she is 16 and in the 10th grade. Time goes by so fast and one day you wake up and that beautiful little baby you carried for 9 months and brought home from the hospital is now just a few short years from being a grown up.

I grew up poor and I wanted nothing more than to give my daughter some of the special ..read more
