Our movie gallery wall that has been months in the making is finally done and I'm in love! Emily over at The Inspired Damsel designed this great idea. Our family loves movies. I mean we are movie addicts. I mean we saw Jurassic World three times! We have a family movie collection and each one of the kids has their own collections in their rooms. We could be Blockbuster! A few years ago we ran out of room in our living room's entertainment center for all the movies and moved them to a built-in bookcase in the hallway. I never knew what to do with this bookcase and it's been used differently over the years. It's been a homeschool bookcase, a toy shelf, and a junk collector. I think ... read more

Barbeque Turkey Burgers
Today I wanted a burger, but I didn’t have enough ground beef and let’s be honest, I really didn’t want to go to the store. My brakes are shot and the kids (teens) and I were starving after a long morning of End-of-Year testing for our homeschool. So, what to do that’s quick and will use what I already have on hand? I felt like Winnie the Pooh when he has to think really hard! Think…think…think... So I searched and searched and then I remembered that in my freezer there was this large pack of ground turkey that I bought at an amazing price and was saving it. Saving it for what? I couldn’t remember so it hit me! Today, one pound or so of it became my newest creation…Barbeque Turkey ... read more
My Grandmother’s Strawberry Custard Pie
My Grandmother's Strawberry Custard Pie is the easiest pie to make and it's perfect for Spring. I made this pie for our Palm Sunday Easter Lunch at church. It's finally spring and even though strawberries aren't technically in season just yet, our store had some gorgeous strawberries that I couldn't resist. I love this pie, it reminds me of family time on our farm with my grandparents. Every spring, they would go to Patterson Farms and buy strawberries by the ton. She would freeze lots of them and make strawberry jelly. But, she'd also make this pie. It's the simplest pie in the world to make and it's rustic because you just can't mess it up and it's even better the next day after ... read more
What I’m Currently Loving: My Fitness Planner
I am currently in LOVE with this new fitness planner I found at Marshall's. It's by Eccollo Ltd. and was only $5.99! Can't beat that! The theme for this year for me is "Healthy Inside and Out". I've spent the last two years having two surgeries myself (hysterectomy and double knee arthroscopy) and taking care of two girls who had three surgeries between them and my husband having three surgeries by himself for cancer. It's been busy! But God is awesome and everyone is doing great! Thankfully my son has been super healthy. It's time to focus on me a little bit and this planner is going to be a big help. I love planners and this one is great! It's great because it's really simple ... read more
How to Plan A Memorable Senior Night Recognition
Are you in charge of doing a Senior Night Recognition? It's really easy to do, just follow my tips... This picture is from my sweet son Spencer’s senior night for basketball. Time goes by way too fast! As I was making my checklist for my son's senior night and starting to get things ready, I thought I’d make a checklist for myself and anyone that happens to be put in charge of one of these events. Not all Senior Recognitions have to be for sports, most are, but every senior deserves a night of recognition for something that they've been a part of. My youngest daughter's Senior Recognition was after her last time acting with our youth group at church. Be creative! You know me, ... read more
