The fact that I haven’t posted in over two weeks is a testament to how crazy my life has been lately. I was blessed to have been asked to help with the Festival of the Nativity and it was a great experience but I am not going to lie, I am still playing catch upContinue reading “"Will I ever get caught up?

Is that a Lama??
Every year I leave the holiday season thinking that there was more we could have done as a family to really embrace the true meaning of the season. And yet, I can never quite put my finger on what that should be other than I feel like we should spend a little less time thinkingContinue reading “Is that a Lama??”
Embracing Imperfection
My original goal when I started this blogging adventure was to find a way to be held accountable for trying to get myself and the kids organized. I think that was a noble goal but I’ve realized that all that’s really come out of it is that I’m starting to realize that I’m a littleContinue reading “Embracing Imperfection”
What is that smell?
There is a seriously funky smell coming from under our house. It started a couple of days ago and seems centered in the den–at first I thought it was just the “boy funk” which seems to creep in there after one or more boys has spent time holed up in there playing Minecraft for hoursContinue reading “What is that smell?”
Candy Crush Anyone?
It’s time for me to get serious about having a clean house…We had a sweet gas fireplace insert put in this last week and I HATE it when I’m embarrassed by the state of affairs around here. I mean it’s picked up generally speaking but then the guys wanted to use the garage. The GARAGEContinue reading “Candy Crush Anyone?”
"Turning the other cheek–or leaf–as the case may be."
For those of you still following along on this crazy train you will know that my last post centered on the rude comment my neighbor made about the leaf situation at our house. As you can imagine, this has generated a lot of comments from my family and friends. When I told Dave about itContinue reading “"Turning the other cheek–or leaf–as the case may be."”
"Really???"
Fall is in the air and while the colors are beautiful the change in season presents one challenge here at the Morgans: This tree is ENORMOUS! And while it is beautiful this is what happens to our yard: So for the next few weeks it will be an endless battle to try to stay onContinue reading “"Really???"”
I'm living in THIS?
We just got done with a fabulous visit from Dave’s parents and brother this past weekend. I tell everyone I meet that I have the world’s best in-laws–it’s the truth. But what is it about having company that makes you look around your house and ask, “I’ve been living in THIS?” I mean, I guessContinue reading “I'm living in THIS?”
The Calm Before the Storm
As I sit here at the computer I was struck by how peaceful I actually feel for a minute. The house is quiet with only two of the six here, dinner is cooking on the stove, the house is clean (alright–my bed isn’t made and there are a few clothes on the tub but it’sContinue reading “The Calm Before the Storm”
Dare I say: progress?
The back to school craziness is in full swing here at the Morgans. Here’s the calendar I spent 2 hours figuring out the other night: I was pretty proud of myself for putting that together–I’m just hoping I still have the gumption to do it when October comes around…I cannot tell you the number ofContinue reading “Dare I say: progress?”
