Vday fun

I loved Valentines this year. It was nice to spend it at home with the kids and those I love!

We turned our house into "The Love Cafe".


The kids waited on us over a candlelight dinner. I never imagined they would have loved it so much, they took their job seriously! They loved waiting on their grandparents and aunts and uncles too.


We finished off the evening with our usual cookie decorating. My last real sugar high! Yes folks, still going strong on my no sugar. I loved love day this year....Can't wait to do this again!

I LOVE Candy


If you know me, you know I love sugar. LOVE. IT. Love it so much (you know the old saying...I could marry it). Seriously, I can't remember a day in the last few years that I haven't had some sweet treat. Mmm. Love treats, a lot.

But I am giving up sugar for the next 40 days!! Can I do it? If you see me...remind me or ask me how I am doing. I am just going to appologize right now if I am grouchy. Sugar brings out the best in almost everything about me (except my waistline!).

So, here goes craziness...

The first step back is the hardest...

Really, 10 months ago was my last post? Wow!! Honestly, I have been trying to think of some super fabulous post as a comeback... But, superfabulous just hasn't been me lately!! Not. At. All.

But the sun has been out this week,

Richard and I did go to Hawaii over my blogging hiatus, (proof of my love of the sun)and I feel a part of me coming back. So, we will see if I can EVER make it back to blogging. Seems like a long shot. I so love the spring and summer. And, I so loved blogging at one time.

So, what do I do...update you on my life for the last 10 months? No...I'll spare you that. I love quotes. I love that a few sentences can move me, inspire me, and push me to change. I love that a couple of lines can make me laugh, cry, and lift me. And so it seems fitting to come back to blogging with a thought...

Well, I am breathing and here goes another shot at blogging...
