Remember how I told you that we had been busy lately?  Well, in all our hustle and bustle, we had the opportunity to go to Six Flags over Georgia for their Holiday In the Park.  It has been years since I had been to Six Flags and it was Broxton's first time.  He had been BEGGING to go for quite some time and I am so glad it finally worked out for us to go! We were actually able to get my brother to come with us too, so it was a fun family adventure!   I was not sure what to expect, so we were all like children filled with excitement!!! When we arrived, they literally had the red carpet rolled out for us, since it was a special media invite only night.  If you look behind Broxton, one of the employees was photo bom

Having a little girl now means that I get to look at all the cute little girl clothes!!!  Soon enough she will have a mind of her own and her own style, but until then, I can have fun dressing her up.  I have never been much for dressing up, makeup or any of the "girly" things, but I have had a blast buying dresses for her and having her wear pinks and reds and other cute colored clothes!  We were lucky to have been given a good amount of hand me downs when she was born, but it is still nice to pick out and dress her up too.  (Not to mention the clothes we have don't really match size and season right now!) I was recently given the chance to check out the clothing line from Heart N Soul Children's Swa

We have seen the Doctor more than relatives.  Since right before Halloween until now, at least 2 people in the house have been sick.  That means many doctors appointments, many hours of crying (mama and her babies) and of course lots of snuggles and sleep.  That being said, the blog has really suffered, so thank you for staying with me through it all.  As of now, babies are okay and it is just mama that is still sick. Hope that changes soon! I guess I really should take a look at all this talk about oils.  (I will save that for another day, a bit too much else going on right now.)   We are almost in December, so you know what that means... I should have a GI

I am not one to post my beliefs and political thoughts on my blog, but I will say that the world we are living in right now needs much prayer, hope and love.  Every single time you turn on the TV or look online at the news, more negativity.  It is heartbreaking.  I thought the company I wanted to kick off my Gift Guide was just the perfect message we could all use!!!   HOPE in a box .  H.O.P.E = Hang On Pray Everyday!  LOVE IT!!!! About the company:  HOPE IN A BOX gifts that offer hope by Romans 12 LLC was founded on the idea that all of us, some time or another, suffer with daily challenges, difficulties, or crisis in our lives.

The Thanksgiving Break has started out being pretty busy for us, but I have enjoyed it.  It has reminded me of things local to us that I never really think about.  We had two different invitations this weekend that would be great for the lover of shopping.  No, that is not my mom, but I know many who do girls trips with their moms and other females closer to the holidays. I want to share with you the two trips we enjoyed.   Up first, we had an invitation to go to Winter Wonderland on the Marietta Square to check out the Ice Skating Rink that has been set up.  Let me start by saying that Marietta Square is an awesome place, but we rarely go, since the few times we have been parking was crazy.  I found out that af
