Summer...Summer...Summertime....

Okay... so I love summer!! I know things have been super busy around here, but we are so enjoying the long days and the POOL!! :-)

I have missed blogging, but I know that I will be getting back into the groove very soon. I have some really amazing new opportunities and I am so proud to share with you all.

First off- I have been chosen by The Old Schoolhouse as one of the 2009 TOS Crew!! I am so excited to be a part of this amazing review community and I look forward to bringing all of you some amazing reviews from some of the best homeschooling companies around. Stay tuned because we will be starting very soon!!

Also- I am a new contributing editor for Parent Reviewers!! Yep- I am so amazed that I was chosen for this position, but I am thrilled!! I will be reviewing some great family friendly products for that position as well.

So- I will be back to regular blogging VERY soon- and hopefully with some amazing pictures (with the new camera I am **hoping** to get for my birthday at the end of the month)!!

Hope you all are enjoying your summer and staying cool!! :-)

See you soon!!

Happy Summer!!

I love Summer!! The pace doesn't slow down- but somehow the busy-ness doesn't bother me as much. Maybe that's because the busy-ness involves the pool, the zoo, summer camp, the lake, etc. We are fully enjoying the days and that has kept me off the computer a bit more than I would like- but its a willing sacrifice.

I am working on some great new opportunities that I can't wait to share with you all as well as some amazing reviews and giveaways that will be beginning in the next few weeks.

In the meantime- go get some sun!! :-)

New Direction...

I feel I am at a crossroads in so many areas of my life. With my relationships, my children, our living situation, my career (or lack there of)... everything seems to be ch-ch-changing. And I feel like I'm just along for the ride.

This is always a tough place to be, but not a bad place- you see I know that the Lord has my life in His sights and that He is ordering my steps. So as long as I continue to seek Him and His will for me then I can't go wrong.

We recently launched our newest project, our Frugal Jenn blog, and we have had an amazing response. We have only been up and running for a little over three weeks and we already have hundreds of subscribers- and yet I'm feeling like the Lord might be directing me to take a different direction right now. It's tough because of all the time and work that we put into launching the site, but I would gladly sacrifice all of it if the Lord is redirecting my journey.

So... for now it's on hold- until I get firm direction one way or another about it. But- that will give us much more time to post here and on our Review blog- which are truly my passion.

Thanks so much for all of your support!!

Wow... what a week!!

So this has been a very busy week- we had the little guy headed off to Aunt JoJo's house for a few days, but not before he decided to be my little laundry helper!! During nap time on Friday he decided I just have too much work to do, so he would *help*- he went into our room and poured about four large squirt bottle of water in my hamper- to *help* me do the laundry!! How sweet!!

So then he headed off to JoJo's for some time with Cody and my little dancing princess had her dance recital. She did such a good job and just as soon as I can figure out how I will post the videos we took of her dancing- so cute!!

We also had my sweet niece Lily over for a spend the night on Saturday night and then they reciprocated by taking my little one for a night on Monday. The hubb's and I actually had a date night!! It was great!!

So... I am trying to figure out exactly what we are doing with the kiddos next school year- we have some things in the works, but we are waiting to see which direction we should take. We'll let you all know what's going on as soon as we have a clear plan.

Let us know how you all are doing as well- we love to hear from you!! :-)
