At my daughter’s swim practice. I have gotten a bunch of work done so things are going well. She’s in the pool, and I worked on my laptop for a while. I buttoned up some loose ends I didn’t get to at work. It’s fun watching her when she’s having fun. At water polo she […]

Had a good chat with my sisters last night which inspired me to update my blog! 😄 We are trying to decide what our family is going to do over the holidays. The big unknown is how mobile my hubs will be for any of it. I really like our Thanksgiving plans of the whole […]

My hubs asked me what I want for my birthday. I really want to go to Monument Valley, but that’s not really an easy option. I would also like a trip to our property camping with friends so we are making plans for that.  That one is a lot easier.  I wasn’t really sure if […]

What a crazy, stressfull week! The hubs is out of town, it’s Homecoming, the younger two had a swim meet, and we decided to try water polo with the younger two. I planned everything out, but that’s really hard when things can change so quickly. On Tuesday, I had a super stressful day. I thought […]

I signed my two younger kids up for a two week trial of club water polo!  We went to their first practice tonight! We have been talking about it, but over the past few days, a lot of people in my village started talking about it and asking about it.  I decided it can’t hurt […]

This morning my daughter told me she needed new fins for swim. Of course the day after someone else claimed free ones in the size she needs from one of my parent circles…. that’s not the point. I went online to order new ones, and I found the cutest Halloween swim suit and swim cap […]

I am trying to get more into the swim mom thing. I have a kid on the high school aquatics team, and my other two are on a club team. And of course we love our summer league team!! My daughter got to swim her last 25s at her last meet. I was excited for […]

It is interesting watching my son develop as a high schooler. He has enjoyed things he’s doing, and has even done something I didn’t expect in marching band – he plays the synthesizer.  He knows one of the band directors from last year, and he asked him if he’d be interested in doing the synthesizer. […]

My son is loving marching band which makes me very happy for him. It’s really crazy to see the effort it takes to get to football games and competitions. They have multiple school buses and a tractor trailer full of equipment. They also have two other large trailers. Tonight it looked like the semi and […]

I feel great today.  Before work I opened a package from Dillards since I had some extra time today.  I found some great sale items at the end of August from the community tab of someone I follow on YouTube (I can’t find it again!).  I have been using my black MCM tote and red […]
