Parenting is hard stuff. I say it a lot. But that's because it's true. It is the hardest job there is and the most important. Raising these children to not only be productive members of society but to also love and obey God? Well, most days I don't even know what I am doing. [Tweet "Parenting? Most days I don't know what I'm doing. #FCBlogger"] My daughter is already seven years old. I started this blog when we were living in California. I really wanted to keep my family updated on our … [Read more...]

On-the-Go? How About Easy Breakfast Biscuits?
Disclosure: This is a sponsored post with Honey Bunches of Oats and Sverve. All opinions are mine. My mornings are busy. Getting both kids ready and out the door by 7:20 am is not easy when you are not a morning person. Ugh, will I ever be a morning person?

Christian St. Patrick’s Day Printable Bag Topper
St. Patrick's Day is less than a week away! Where, oh where, is 2015 going? It is flying by! We don't usually do much for St. Patrick's Day in our home.

Feeling Beautiful on a Date with My Hubby!
I participated in this sponsored campaign on behalf of Victoria Jackson® and One2One Network. All opinions stated are my own. Last week, my husband and I had a date. Since dates are few and far between, with a busy job and two young kids, feeling beautiful on my date is a must. I want it to be special. To be honest, most days I don't bother with makeup. If I know I am going to be home all day, it's yoga pants and no makeup. Having a cute outfit and great makeup for a date with the hubster … [Read more...]
