One Thousand Gifts beckons you to leave the parched ground of pride, fear, and white-knuckle control and abandon yourself to the God who overflows your cup.  As Ann Voskamp invites you into her own moments of grace, she gently teaches you how to biblically lament loss, turning pain into poetry; intentionally embrace a lifestyle of radical gratitude; and slow down and catch God in the moment.  Not a book merely to read, One Thousand Gifts begs to be embraced as a dynamic, interactive primer inviting you to engage with truths that will serve up the depths of God’s joy and transform your

If you’re a regular reader of my blog you’ll know that I’m all about tasty but simple meals.  I want things to taste like I’ve slaved all day in the kitchen, but i don’t want to be all day in the kitchen.  So I often use some packaged products along with some fresh products to accomplish that.  Kraft Recipe Makers are exactly the kind of “help” I’m looking for to take dinner to the next level and using them cuts dinner prep to an amount of time I’m comfortable with.

The Bella & Harry series was developed to inspire young readers to embrace the world and encourage its exploration. Done through the comedic and informative adventures of sibling Chihuahuas Bella and Harry, while traveling through various countries, the series aspires to stimulate children’s imaginations and foster a thirst for understanding the world in which they live.

I remember 14 years ago when we first moved to the U.S., researching Vonage services because we needed a second phone line for my husband’s job.  Fast forward to this past month when I now was researching it again, but this time it was for their app, Vonage Mobile.

Vonage Mobile is free to download (and you don’t have to have a Vonage land line to use it) and with it you can call, text, and video chat.  I admit I was intrigued and so we downloaded it to my husband’s Android phone, my iPhone and our daughter’s iTouch to give it a whirl.

Celebrate America’s favorite condiment on National Mustard Day – Saturday, August 3rd by visiting the National Mustard Museum near Madison, WI. Too far to go? Why not create a mustard worthy menu for the entire family with great recipe ideas from French’s, America’s #1 selling mustard.

French’s® Mustard has helped bring together the people we love, the moments we treasure and the food we savor ever since it first introduced its Classic Yellow Mustard in 1904 at the St. Louis World’s Fair. While mustard remains the most

Moving into a new home is so exciting.  When we were looking for a house here in Texas we had certain features that we were looking for, surprisingly enough the very first house we looked at had them all, and was in the end the one we bought.  The house is 840 sq ft larger than the condo we had in South Dakota, but interestingly we had quite a bit more storage in the condo then we do here in this home now.

Case in point -> this is where our DVD collection is right now.

Well we’re finally in Texas!  And one of the first boxes I made sure we unpacked was the one that had all our Master Locks in it.  Since Back-to-School is quickly approaching I made a vlog sharing three of my favorite locks.  You can watch it below.  Then make sure you finish reading the post so I can tell you about our mover’s experience with Master Lock.

Our daughter is so excited to see PERCY JACKSON: SEA OF MONSTERS which is coming to theaters August 7, 2013, from 20th Century Fox.

In case you haven’t figured it out yet, we’re a bit Disney obsessed around our home.  Disney paraphernalia, Disney clothing, Disney music, Disney vacations, Disney DVDs,  you get the idea.  So it seemed entirely appropriate to share with you about Disney Family Movies, a subscription on demand service for one very low monthly price.

If you haven’t heard about this service yet, it allows you to gain access to great feature movies, shorts, featurettes and bonus materials, all at you fingertips.
