“Have you posted about the new house yet?” – Blank Stare.

We've not even been in our new home two full weeks AND we just had the internet activated yesterday, and guess what Andy asks me when he walks in the door yesterday?  "Have you posted about the new house yet?" Well no, dear, I haven't. (Sorry, John.) As excited as I am about this house, I've not only been without internet, fumbling over not-yet-unpacked stuff, trying to keep things out of Jett's mouth, and dealing with the boys fighting over which game they want to play while it's been raining all week (on top of cooking 3 meals a day,…

Hey Lisa! Where’d you go?

Most of you know, by now, that my family and I have just moved from the Southwest side of Houston over to the far East side in Mont Belvieu! Please forgive me for my absence! I have no internet, right now.  The guy came out on Thursday, and the first thing out of his mouth was, "I figured you were new if you were going with our service!", so I decided to go a different route.  If all is right in the world, we will have internet on Tuesday! But for now, my house pretty much still looks like this, so…

Premier Dolphin Cruise Review – Pensacola Beach, Florida | #brandcation #gulfcoast Thank you CirclePR

I can remember, when I was growing up, there was nothing I wanted to do more than to go out in the boat with my daddy. When I found out that we were going on a Dolphin Cruise at Brandcation: Bloggers Gone Coastal, I was super excited.  Thanks to Circle PR, I felt like a kid again when I boarded the Premier Dolphin Cruise in Pensacola Beach.

Jambu Footwear Sponsored Blogger Olympics – My Team Won! | #brandcation #gulfcoast

I can't run in the sand.  Hold that I can BARELY walk in the sand, so I don't know what I was thinking when I decided to try to hustle during the Blogger Olympics at Brandcation! Not only did I lose my sunglasses (that I had kept up with for YEARS) in the ocean because of busting it, but I also tried to pretend I had jets like my sister and ended up falling, almost face first, in the sand during one of our relays!  (Maybe I needed Jambu Footwear?!)   You see Trisha's face?  That pretty much says it all.  Despite…
