Early Sunday morning winter storm Diego decided to stop by and stay all day long. It snowed and snowed and snowed! I didn't think it was ever going to stop. It was pretty coming down at times with the big huge flakes. By the time it was over we had 15 inches of snow at… Continue reading A Gift From Diego

Happy Monday
Hi there! I missed you all last week. I was just way too busy! Hopefully things will be a tad calmer this week. Thanksgiving was very nice. It was great to spend time with family. Not a lot of family made it to dinner this year. We still had a ton of food - turkey,… Continue reading Happy Monday
Mason Jar Lid Christmas Ornaments
Happy Wednesday! We are under a winter storm warning until tomorrow here in Virginia. I can hardly believe it! Usually we don't start getting these warnings until January!

We are okay, but our small town could not handle all that rain and the… Continue reading Crazy Michael
Abandoned Mill
I hope you all had a great weekend! Saturday was a pretty busy day for me. My mom and I went to a church rummage sale. There was a lot of furniture there, but nothing that really caught my eye. At least not for the prices they had stuck on them. I did end up… Continue reading Abandoned Mill
Hurricane Florence
It seems that Florence is going to be an issue for us here in Virginia. My sister lives in Wilmington, North Carolina and there is a possibility that the hurricane could hit land there, then stall over us in Virginia. What a mess that will be for this coming weekend. Our local news station… Continue reading Hurricane Florence
Homeschool Week 1
Our first week of Homeschool has been a huge success! I'm so glad I decided to take this path. Day one was a little bit crazy, which is normal for any school day. It started off with me burning the bacon. Thankfully I had more bacon. We started our school day and halfway… Continue reading Homeschool Week 1
