New Beginnings

Well, hey there!  I'm so happy you found me.  I started this blog years ago when I ran a home based daycare.  It served as a way to keep my daycare families up-to-date on stuff.  I've since closed the daycare and moved on to other things.

I've decided to revamp it and focus on important issues in my life.

     ~ I'm a wife of 7 years to my high school sweetheart and mommy to 3 AWESOME kids.

     ~ I'm a professional cake designer.

     ~ I'm on a fitness journey to get healthier.

     ~ I'm helping a friend with her political campaign.

     ~ Most exciting news of all?  We're selling our home and building our dream home!

I figured I might as well focus on these adventures now.  Thanks for coming along for the ride!

Flooring & Bathroom Selections

Ever taken a trip to the Lowes tile department?  Did you feel like the walls were closing in around you?  I often wonder how many divorces take place because of fights that broke out on those aisles.  It was time for us to make our flooring selections and since I'm keeping it 100% real with y'all, I was scared shitless!!!  We had a conservative figure of $10K in mind.  Did I say conservative??? We arrived at our flooring appointment a little early (only about 10 minutes because we're very punctual people).  I feel like my time is precious and others' time is equally important so we avoid being late at all costs.  Our flooring rep (FR) didn't seem very excited to see us.  She greeted us with pleasantries that seemed a bit...er...umm...forced.  I could see steam coming from hubby's ears so I continued to smile and remain as upbeat  as possible.  Apparently this office was just taken over by her company and the previous company still...

Building on a Solid Foundation

I'm so excited to announce that things are moving along!  We finally got the green light from our loan officer and our foundation has been poured.  The workers will be working on sewage drainage stuff (I guess that's what you call it) this week.  We walked the lot with our PM a few days ago.  He did a great job explaining how our lot will most likely end up looking.  I'm a visual person and I just wasn't getting it before his explanation.  All I saw was the foundation of our new home sitting in what I'd describe as a huge bowl.  For the life of me I couldn't understand why we wouldn't need a sump pump.  So, basically, our lot will be filled in with dirt from surrounding lots and leveled off.  A home should be built on a strong foundation. Everyone taking a peek. We're making a few small changes to the layout.  Nothing that will require a change order, but will make our house a little different.  Because of the ...

CIZEing It Up with Shaun T

A major goal for me is to get healthier.  I've been doing Beachbody programs to help get me one step closer.  I'm trying out the newest Shaun T program called CIZE .  I have a love hate relationship with that man!  He makes me work hard and sweat.  I ain't about that life.  But I love to dance and he's got some killer dance moves.  I'm two days in and hurting in places I didn't know existed.  Who would have thought dancing used all these muscles.  I'm excited to see what my results are after the first week (it's a 4 week program).  Stay tuned for updates and progress pics!
