Photography Challenges. While most (okay, probably all) of my posts showcase some of my photography, I often find that I struggle with finding the space to share all the photos that I'd like to share. This is mostly due to the fact that I don't post every day and never more than once a [...]

Friday Faves Edition 48
Friday Faves. I'm rounding up my Friday Faves for the week. On Saturday, I had a nice visit with my mother-in-law, along with my niece and her babies. For me, the week has been spent mostly behind the scenes, BUT the hubby and I did brave the frigid cold to head to Downtown Roanoke [...]

Friday Faves – Edition 44
It's Friday. I can't begin to tell you how relieved that I am that it is Friday. This has been an exhausting week. Mostly because I've spent most of it in that "bordering on sick" phase.

Visiting A Christmas Tree Farm
Visiting A Christmas Tree Farm. (Or how to choose the perfect Christmas tree). Ok, that second part might be a little far-fetched. Is there such a thing as a "perfect" tree? And isn't beauty in the eye of the beholder? Florida Gal. I was born, raised, married, entered motherhood, and lived for 36 years [...]
Friday Faves – Edition 41
Friday. It really doesn't feel like Friday. When there's a disruption to the school/work routine, it throws things off. Tuesday felt more like Friday because everyone took Wednesday off. Monday was really my only day that stayed on schedule. Tuesday I had a kid that needed to leave school early because they didn't feel [...]
