Lugz Tallulah High WR Women’s Boots + Giveaway (Continental US) 10/25

Moms tend to put themselves last a lot.  We rarely get to sit down and eat a hot meal and if we actually do get to sit down, it's only a matter of minutes before someone needs something that requires mom to get up.  I'm now a part of a local MOPS group and part of what they stress there is that we really need to also take care of ourselves too and not just focus on everyone else.  So, for myself, part of that is taking shape in making sure that I am prepared for the change in seasons before it Read more [...]

For the past two weeks, I've been wanting to surprise our kiddos with a trip to the local zoo.  But wouldn't you know, it's either been raining, too windy, or we have had plans.  Today, though, showed promise so after everyone was up, we got packed up to head out on our mini fun day at the zoo.  As the kids got their shoes and sweatshirts on, I helped our youngest two into their Freshly Picked Moccasins!
