You guys, I am totally spent. Between packing up and planning and errands and cleaning, I am completely in vacation mode! This would be fine if I still didn’t have so much work to do! The good news is, I think I can get everything done and still have a few spare moments to catch [...]

Dreaming of Summer

by Andrea on March 10, 2012 · 3 comments

I am dreaming of summer today. Anyone else ready for sundresses and sandals? I thought I would take my mood on a little online window shopping spree. Everything here is under $100. Can you tell I am ready for our trip to Florida next month?

This weekend, Jerry and I are heading out for a quick trip to the beach! It was an unexpected win for us because we hadn’t planned anything. But I literally won a contest so off we go! Last year we stayed in town and just spent a really nice day and a half hanging out [...]

Becoming Mom: On Being Away

by Andrea on August 12, 2010 · 3 comments

I am a stay at home mom. It’s a path that we joyfully chose and one that I absolutely love. Of course it would be nice to have cable or be able to go out to dinner more than once or twice a month, but for me, those are minor sacrifices for a huge payoff. [...]

I think we all know that this week didn’t turn out as planned. And we deal with it and we pick up our lives and try to get back to normal. However, this week is FAR from normal! And I am actually pretty thankful for that. Tomorrow begins my MUCH anticipated trip to the BlogHer [...]

Home Sweet Home

by Andrea on July 5, 2010 · 0 comments

We’re back! We pulled in at about 8pm last night after a tiring but productive drive home from Florida. We decided to forgo 4th of July activities to beat the traffic and it was wonderful! There were hardly any other cars on the road. And now I have to decompress. Thankfully we did laundry before [...]

Fixin to….

by Andrea on June 22, 2010 · 0 comments

I love the South. I grew up in Florida which to me, does not count as the South. I was born and raised in a beach town full of Drifters and Northern Transplants and Retirees and Spring Breakers. It was a good time. In fact, I really can’t imagine living there as an adult. I [...]

In two weeks I will be hanging out with my oldest friends, by their pool in the Florida sun. Laughing, talking and loving each other’s children. I will be taking my husband and my son on their very first trip to Disney World. I am especially excited to ride Dumbo and the Teacups with Oscar [...]

We had an awesome trip. I don’t really know what to say other than we are incredibly fortunate. I can’t imagine what life would be like without a supportive family and ours is overflowing with love! This trip was to see folks on Jerry’s side and it couldn’t have gone better. What could have been [...]
