I'm so happy that this challenge has come around. After not doing the life lessons and traditions for a little while, I now realize that we have let the busyness of life get us away from these things that really are the most important. Thanks for se…

Trying to Declutter my life
I don't know what it is about this time of year that just makes me want to THROW THINGS OUT! of course, I keep things that are important, but I just feel like God is urging me to purge my life of things that are not necessarily bad, but are not the best things that I should be spending my time and energy on. Anyone relate?

I just wanted to remind you that the new challenge has started. There is $150 in gifts of your choice from Once Upon A Family once you complete. I know everyone is busy crazy, but who can pass up that type of an incentive. I am here to encourage you to join in this time. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Yes, wouldn’t that be like heaven? You walk around the house and without saying a word, backpacks, toys and clothes are picked up…dishes are cleared off the table and towels are hung back on the towel rack. Dirty clothes actually go into the dirty clothes basket and you no longer walk into the kitchen to [...]
The Power of Unexpected Kindness
The idea of Door Knob Drops came from my sister, Teri, who lives with her two boys in Moraga, California. One year there were several kids on their street that were graduating from some school or another; sixth grade, eighth grade or twelfth grade. Teri and her boys put together some very simple treats with [...]
What Would You Do?
Last night my boys, Dylan and Travis, were helping me cut out Bingo Boards and put together Bingo Button sacks. It was really late and I was trying to get everything photographed for this first Five in One Family Fun email. Normally they go to bed by 9:15 but it was 9:30 and I hadn’t [...]
