Somehow I have not succumbed to the ‘buy curriculum because I just love it’. I’ve made a 4-year plan of where the boys need to go for their high school career and have bought curriculum accordingly. It saves a ton of money and wastes not. The requirements for state of Georgia students to graduat...
Great giveawy (already taking your class though) - but would love your products. Thanks so much!

project life | week 12
Week 12 of Project Life is done! And I adore this project. I am capturing our life each week. Some weeks are very similar in that we have our routines, and sometimes we have neato stuff that fills our lives. Either route is good for documenting - life. Have you seen the latest Project Life Dig...

4 Simple Goals | February 2013 (a bit late!)
My 4 Simple Goals, February 2013: SPRING BREAK PLANS. I can't believe how fast it's coming up. Our plans are 80% finished. It's time to get some paperwork completed, some information submitted and some excursions booked. The kids are jazzed, and so am I! iPOD/iTUNES. I find it all pretty com...
love love the entryway - can't wait to see what you have in store for it...and those kitchen cabinets make me swoon and that big back window ensemble. congratulations!!!!
peeks at our new place.
So...good news! We are currently in Escrow on a house we LOVE in San Diego. In a few weeks, when the Escrow is closed, I have the keys and things are starting to settle, I would love to share the looong and crazy story of how this place came to be ours, but the short story is...we're becoming...
Hilarious! Just last night when i was taking pictures while we were playing cards as a family, whenever i'd take a picture of my husband he'd always make a face. i asked him if everytime i was going to take a picture was he gonna make a face? his response led me to say - please don't!!!!
You think it's hard to take nice pictures of your kids? Try husbands.
Dan has recently decided to add some facial hair to his look. Granted, he can do this in about three to four hours, such is the growth rate of said facial hair, but I always think he looks so handsome with a little scruff. (Until he goes overboard and does something like this.) I asked him if I ...
i know what you mean about 'catching up'; i'm behind in my 52photos and really not sure if i'm gonna keep it up. i really like this exercise though so i'm gonna' work on those 'lists' this week so i'll be ready for week 6 next tuesday.

same here; not a hoarder and can be very organized but things just get away. and i'm so trying to simplify. thanks so much for the encouragement.
one little word
A single word can be a powerful thing. It can be the ripple in the pond that changes everything. It can be sharp and biting or rich and soft and slow. From my own personal experience, it can be a catalyst for enriching your life. - Ali Edwards in 2012 my word was nourish. my life was changed,...
thanks so much for the well wishes.
move more eat well
it has continued...moving more and eating well. i'm back in the classroom with cathy zielske and big picture classes for some inspiration and encouragement on this journey of losing weight with a major attitude adjustment in the mix. we (my class) were assigned a pre-class assignment of a titl...
Brittany,
I didn't use a template. I made the subway art using PSE. I've seen various subway art online and thought I could do something like that for a baby gift. love how they turned out.
subway art l baby gifts
don't think i ever shared the baby gift i made my neighbor who recently had twins. of course, i'm partial to twins since i have a set, a pair, two little ones who aren't so little anymore... i've seen these 'subway' art type birth information all over the web and felt i really could make them my...

what a cool idea to let us in on how seafoam came to be. can't wait. it solidified PL for me for 2013...
building the seafoam kit / the beginning.
I plan on sharing a few posts before the end of the year about how the Seafoam kit came to life. It's tricky to try and remember all this stuff and it's a bit nerve-wracking to share details of my good and bad decisions, but someday, surely, I'll find this interesting and the hope is that you...
so exciting for you. and how cool to meet CZ. she rocks on her blog i can only imagine IRL. but then, i am sure she is saying the same about you because you rock too.
things we do | inspiration in minneapolis
Often our family field trips come as a result of a question posed by one of the kids. In this case, Claire said "Maya, who?" Evidence that I had clearly failed as a mum or Oprah went off air too soon! Sometime in late September we were having a typical family conversation about everything and no...
I'm joining in and using your template also. thanks for the download too! i'm so excited for this project!!!
Project Life, Week Forty-Three + 30 Days of Thankful kicks off
OBSERVATIONS: Hello November! (Okay, technically, this Project Life post is for the last week of October, but I can still greet the new month, yes? Good!) Last week was another week where I really didn't take a lot of photos. You'll notice the enlarged-photo-taking-up-three-pockets trick agai...
Misty,

It was a pretty good week around here. The backordered stamps arrived and got out the door in a flurry of packing tape and business cards. That is always a huge relief and if you've been waiting, I hope they arrive soon! This also means that all stamps are back in stoc...
