Time...

Why is it that time passes so much faster when you're older than when you were a kid? 

The older I get the faster it seems to go.  I so don't get it.  Maybe it just passes the same but when you are a kid you are always looking forward to something big...last day of school, Christmas break, your birthday and your lack of patience makes it seem like the days just drag on forever (unless its summer break and the first day of school is there before you blink) and when you're older you have developed your patience much better than when you were little and well with work and kids and bills and everything else on your grown up plate its really kinda hard to look forward to those "big" days right?  I mean because if we're looking forward to Christmas we worry about the money we are going to end up spending, if we look forward to summer break well then we just have to worry about how to keep the kiddos entertained and safe while we work and well what grown up really looks forward to their birthday I mean who wants to get yet another year older.  So we don't look forward to much to make the days seem as if they are dragging and then here we are wondering where all this time has gone.  While we were busy being grown ups the fun stuff we use to love just slips by the wayside barely getting noticed and the days have flown by us like we were standing still.

That is what seems to be going on in my house these days.  We are all so busy that we haven't really been taking the time to enjoy what God has put before us.  Don't get me wrong, we have been doing stuff.  Stephen and I got to take a cruise, we have all been fishing with my dad a few times, Britt is playing softball again this year and lots of other things.  I have been too busy just going with the flow that I have not made time to write in my blog in about a month and a half.  I miss it. 

This is what has me asking why time seems to fly.  It seems like I have no time to blog these days.  I know I have said it in the past that I am going to be better about blogging more frequently and I do well for a bit and then we get busy and I slow to a near stop.

I do recall posting at the beginning of the year that I would write when I could because we were too busy enjoying life and we have been.  But part of my enjoying life is getting to blog.  It is relaxing and lots of fun.

Keep your eyes open for new stories about our many adventures.  the ones from the past as well as all the adventures we have yet to have.

Thanks for reading.

Have a fantastic Wednesday

Throwback Thursday

    Let me just start by saying straight out of the gate that I absolutely hate to be on the front side of any camera much less my own.  Now it isn't that I don't enjoy being in the moment, I do.  I just enjoy taking the pictures instead of being in them if that makes any sense at all.   With that said I'm glad I was on the front side of this camera this day.  I suppose all little girls dream of growing up, getting married and having babies.  I know when I was a little girl my friends and i would play house, we would more less mark of sections of the room as mine and theirs these sections would be my house or her house.  we'd have baby dolls name them fun names.  We had fun.  I don't know that I ever really thought about actually having children when I grew up.  And as I got older I remember that I didn't even want to get married when I grew up much less have any kids.  But we all grow up. And that guy comes along t...

Super sweet scrub

So the picture isn't the best, you're not looking at a wonderful back drop or perfectly packaged product for this jar of sugar scrub.  But what you are looking at is a simply wonderful homemade sugar body scrub.  I am guilty of spending more than my share of time on the ever growing in popularity website craze "Pinterest" just looking and pinning, pinning, pinning.  I asked myself some time last week "what is the point in this if I don't try some of the things I am pinning."  So yesterday I found this recipe for a sugar body scrub, it helps take off  dry dead skin and it hydrates as well. Now I know we haven't been hit with a bad winter (yet) but the air has been terribly dry and my skin is really suffering all dry and itchy.  My hands have gotten so bad that they were starting to crack and bleed around my cuticles.  So I made this scrub last night before taking my shower.  Here is what I did: Mix 1/3 cup of each in a bowl Brown sugar Regular...

Monday, my favorite day of the week?

Well yes.  I do love Mondays, as much as Saturday or Sunday?  When I worked at the credit union I lived for the federal holidays to come around, it was so nice to spend the day home alone without any care in the world...except when that holiday was also a day for the kids to be out of school or Stephen to be off work.  Don't read into that...I love my family, but I also enjoy time to do what I like to do with out having to listen to the girls fussing at each other or Stephen playing video games or watching some silly show on TV.  With this new job, well it's like I get a holiday weekend every single week.  YAY! working 4 days off 3 is by far the best shift I have ever worked  Now don't get me wrong.  I like my job, but who doesn't love weekends right?  I mean really...look at what I get to do all day...sleep in if I want, play on the computer with the house being completely quiet. (priceless by the way) I get to share my thoughts on this sill...
