A Little “Something” for the Scrapbook
You plan on putting together an awesome scrapbook…and then it falls to the wayside about a day into it. Wait, is that just me?! Yes, I admit that I use to do scrap-booking all the time as a teen, but after senior year in high school, I kind-of lost track of, well, everything. If […]
Gluten-Free…at a Restaurant!
Having any allergy can be a pain to live with, especially if it’s one that interferes with food and you eating some! Honestly, when I think of friends and family who have allergies, it makes me sad for them 🙁 My friend Rachel is one such case, and hers is right up there on the […]
The Emergency Fund You CAN Have
The hubby and I have been busy watching and listening to Dave Ramsey’s Financial Peace University series (thanks to the Harper’s btw), so it’s a common thing to hear him say, “Live like no one else, so you can LIVE like no one else.” The thought behind this is that what’s “normal” spending habits in […]
They’re Healthy…Right?!
It’s one thing to notice you or a loved one is putting on extra weight from the greasy messes of food consumed 3 times a day, every day. But when you’re eating healthy, going the “smarter” route, yet still see your waist growing, it can be nothing short of pulling-your-hair-out frustrating. Well, long story short, […]
No Need to be “THAT” Kid
Every great parent loves their child, but they are very aware that they have faults as well. You never want to list out the “oh-no’s,” but I bet you anything there are already 5 of them that popped in your head when the word “fault” was read. And that’s ok–they’re as human as you and […]
Safety First: Internet Version
A fond moment of my childhood for me was getting a chance to play with some of the first computer games for 15 minute intervals in 3rd grade “free time.” What stunk about it was that I never had a chance to finish Oregon Trail and see if I lived or if a snake bite […]
Drowning Precautions
Through the summer, swimming in a common adventure children love here in Texas. But with that comes the slight fear of drowning, seeing that it is the #2 cause of accidental deaths in the country. Now, our prayer here at KVNE is that you never have to deal with this tragedy, so there are ways […]
Maintenance guys with a sense of humor
One of my Facebook friends posted this earlier today and it’s just too good to pass up. Sorry but I don’t know the original source. “After every flight, QANTAS pilots fill out a form, known as a ‘gripe sheet’ to tell mechanics about problems with the aircraft. The mechanics fix the problem, and then document […]
Taking Baby Steps to a Healthier Family
Most people hear the words “Healthy” and “Family” and automatically think organic weirdos who spend too much time and too much money on too many changes. Going to be honest here: I use to be one of those thinkers! And even though I don’t have a family myself yet, I’ve realized having a healthy home […]
The Parks Are Waiting for YOU!
One of the most loved things about the summertime in Texas is a thing known only as AC! Then again, growing up in Houston, I distinctly remember mom shoving us outside to roam around the cul-de-sac and jump through what seemed to be a big sprinkler (and later was discovered to be average and not big […]
Safe Driving for the Summer
Everyone thinks that they’re a “safe driver” and it’s the people around them that can’t drive. The reality is that we ALL (yes, including you), can work on our driving skills just a little bit, or at least make certain adjustments that should have been made earlier. This time of the year is probably […]
