I know that I devised this blog originally as a place to vent my frustration and hold myself accountable for some changes for myself and my children. And for those of you who have been following along since the beginning of this little journey (and seriously, if you’ve managed to stay with me, props toContinue reading “My Disneyland Epiphany”

Where Did I Put That Kid?
Do you ever feel like you’re losing your mind? Because most days I feel a little nuts. Let me explain. I was over at the school the other day fitting band kids for uniforms and while I can create a super organized system for outfitting 130 marchers I can’t seem to keep track of myContinue reading “Where Did I Put That Kid?”
"I think goldfish crackers might be the staff of life…"
The cooking situation has gotten bad around here. Like, I hadn’t cooked an “actual” meal in a week. And the week before that was not much better. And the week before that. It’s not that we eat out every night but with kids coming and going, picky eaters, my laziness, etc the nights I cookContinue reading “"I think goldfish crackers might be the staff of life…"”
"Wipe Out Winco Style" and other morning adventures.
It’s been a pretty crazy week at our house as Wednesday we sent Carter off on his mission. It’s a strange feeling leading up to sending a missionary off–or a college student I suppose. You feel like the clock is ticking down and you should be making the most of your time left but youContinue reading “"Wipe Out Winco Style" and other morning adventures.”
Criminal Minds–Morgan style
I hate moles. Almost as much as I hate hot dogs which is saying quite a lot. Without fail every spring/summer some nefarious mole decides that the Morgan lawn offers up some tasty treats and he reeks havoc on our lawn. It pretty much makes me crazy. We did a bunch of research onContinue reading “Criminal Minds–Morgan style”
Are we handing out dollar bills like candy now?
I fear that I may have gotten sidetracked in my journey to get a clean house. I blame pinterest of course. As you may recall I think it’s inspired by the devil and I fell into his trap this last week. Dave was away at scout camp and so I embarked on the quest toContinue reading “Are we handing out dollar bills like candy now?”
The Piano Blues
As I’m sitting here typing this I’m listening to my son, McKay (who is 16) play a beautiful piece on the piano–a medley of “Joseph Smith’s First Prayer” and “Praise to the Man.” I am not gonna lie–it makes me proud. Proud and glad that we made our kids take piano lessons for all thoseContinue reading “The Piano Blues”
Harmony=Tacos?
Progress Report #2: At this point I’d like to tell you that I am seeing notable progress in the cleaning department here at the Morgans. Except I can’t. Because we aren’t. One of the great things here at the Morgan house is that we generally are a pretty happy bunch. We’ve been blessed with harmonyContinue reading “Harmony=Tacos?”
"All I want is a domesticated raccoon, two river otters and a non-nocturnal owl."
For those of you who haven’t had the pleasure of meeting my children, I’ll let you in on a little secret: they’re sort of hilarious. Seriously–they are way wittier than me which is the Dave Morgan gene in action. Last night we were discussing the “no pet” policy we have here at the Morgan house.Continue reading “"All I want is a domesticated raccoon, two river otters and a non-nocturnal owl."”
"Keep your wind out of my sails!"
I read a book a while ago that I may or may not have mentioned in a previous post. (It is well established that I am lazy so even though I could take time to go back and check, I’m not going to. After all, I’ve probably either scared everyone off or bored them toContinue reading “"Keep your wind out of my sails!"”
