Nothing brings generations together like a good story. Over the past couple of yaars I have had several ‘full circle’ moments as I read stories to my kids that I remember my parents reading to me as a child and I wonder if someday they will read their children the very same stories. Here are […]
Hello Sweet Shoppers! It’s Kresta here, with a little bit of a history lesson for you. Ready? Good! Well, on this day in 1876, Alexander Graham Bell, who was 29 years old, received a patent for his new invention – the telephone. My! How far we’ve come in 136 years! What in the world would […]
If anyone of you are like me, March seems to always be the point when I either give up, stop, or unknowingly let slide my year-long project goals, be it scrap-wise or in any other areas of my life. I always start the year with the best intentions, all fired up, only to have the […]
Hey Sweet Shoppers! Nikki here today and I thought I’d focus on books for today’s post. I’ve always been an avid reader, but it seems that when my husband is deployed I jump into my “to read” pile like I need it to survive. And in all honesty I do. After the kids are in […]
Hey everyone! 🙂 Zoe here to share something that has been making me smile a lot lately… From the featured image on this post, you are probably thinking “WHOA! Let’s hope that’s not a plan for a new kit” – LOL! And it’s not, it’s my own little Picasso, aka Josh, and I’m loving his […]
Hello Sweet Bloggers! Shannon G here, checking in from Midwestern Illinois… When I leaf through my scrapbooks I love seeing ALL the people who have came (and sometimes went) into my life. I have never been the type of person who only scraps the people who live at my house. I scrap anything I can […]
I know it can feel that way sometimes. It did for me when I first started down my road to more self-portraiture. I was coming out of a nebulous fog of self-identity, the “light” at the end of a very dark tunnel. For years, I defined myself by my roles as mother, wife, church volunteer […]
Hey Sweet Shoppers, it’s Keely here today. After a few recent trips to Ulta, Sally’s and the beauty aisle at my beloved Target, I thought it would be fun to share a few of my go to items and recent finds. While I would never consider myself a girly girl, I love beauty products. I […]
I am writing this on the eve of my 31st birthday. Last year, I made such a big deal of turning 30 and had set some specific goals for myself to accomplish before I turned 31. I even did a layout for it, captured nicely in the page below (inspired by Lynnette aka Nettio’s page) […]
Right now I am on a trip to visit my Grandma. My entire life I have ever only known one grandparent, because the rest of them passed away before I was born. My Grandma has always lived states away, so to be able to visit her is such a treat. My sweet Grandma is 90 […]
Hello everyone, it is Susan here today and I had planned to talk about my favorite most watchable movies of all time. I see that Misty talked about books yesterday, so I hope you don’t mind moving on to another form of media/entertainment. My husband and I often talk about the most watchable movies. You […]
Hey SSDers, Misty here to share about one of my favorite topics … books. During the winter months, I love snuggling up with the kids, our cozy blankets, a warm drink and a pile of books. Here are some of our recent favorite reads. Cooking with Henry and Elliebelly by Carolyn Parkhurst – Five year […]
