I love sharing recipes and crafts and our family life but sometimes I just want to share random things that are going on. So I think Im going to start a doing a post on Saturday called “What I’m Loving”. Not for rankings or page views or anything really. I just have a lot to say, all of the time. [I blame my mom. Love you mom!] So here is what Im loving lately..
That we were able to spend Thanksgiving in Michigan with hubbys family.
That Ryley got to “play” in snow when we got there. [She put her hands on the snow in the airport parking lot.]
And on our way back home someone said “Your kids match perfectly! They look so much alike!”
That the weather has started to cool down here.. finally! Its about 38 degrees today.
That my kiddos have two sets of grandparents who love them so so much.
That 90 percent of my Christmas shopping for the kids is done thanks to Zulily. (Affiliate link).
And that I got some other great deals during Cyber Monday.
And that most of those were done from my bed. [Hollla for online shopping from your phone!]
That my friend Bobbie’s Christmas crack recipe is doing so well!
That we are going to get our Christmas tree today.
That Ryley and Avery met “Santa” while we were shopping at Sam’s club this week. [It was a nice older man dressed in all red with a long beard that played the part. He even handed out stickers!]
That when asked what I do I can say “I’m self employed” and then tell people about my blog.
That my kids are starting to play together nicely. Well, nicer.

Kelley, this is such a great idea. I’ve been working hard on seo and page views and sm stuff, trying to get my blog into shape. And sometimes I feel like it’s not as personal as it was when I first started and didn’t know to care about that crap. I have a real small loyal fan base and I feel like they are my buddies. Popular pins are good, but keeping a connection with my base is even better. Thank you!
Kelley says
Agreed! Its like you get sucked into all that goes along with blogging. Which isn’t a horrible thing but sometimes you lose your voice. Its hard to balance the two. Thanks for the sweet comment as always! I appreciate your support so so much!

I loving that my friend dropped by and plotted to steal my little one. 🙂
Kelley says
What?? There was no plot. You can prove NOTHING.

My long lost friend!! Ever since they did away with Google Reader I have been the WORST at commenting…but I still love your blog! I cannot believe how much you have grown it in such a short time, you should be so proud! I LOVE posts like this, where we actually get a glimpse into real life. Those were some awesome things to be liking…especially the kids getting along. That is a beautiful, beautiful thing 🙂 Hope you have a fantastic weekend!!
Kelley says
