Doing well.









We're all doing well.
Our days are less hectic and we are slowly getting back to our schedule.
I'm enjoying the cooler weather. Fall weather is absolutely lovely here in Colorado.
Lately, the air is fresh and I'm enjoying the beautiful colors of fall. - It's so beautiful out.
We are enjoying baked goodies.  Preparing, warm baked oatmeal and apple crisp.
My mother was out for a short visit. -It was nice having her. She prepared a few dishes for us. During her stay, we would all sit around and chit-chat. Our oldest really enjoyed time with grandma. 
Lately, I've been experimenting with some new cloth diapers we recently purchased. I've done all my research on- detergents, cloth-safe diaper creams, and much more. So far it's pretty simple. -I think I've got the hang of it! 

Simple days, and a lot of baby-wearing- make things simple and I seem to get a lot done when doing this. And of course, I absolutely love the bonding time we share. Our oldest enjoys reading and singing to her little sister.  I must admit I'm sad to see my husband return to work soon. He has been so helpful with the girls and it was nice having him around for a month. In the past when he was in the military he was always deploying. - So now when he is home I absolutely cherish these moments. 

So lately, we're all doing well. How's life treating you? Are you also enjoying the fall weather where you live?

      Hi Mya! First, I'd like to welcome you as my new reader. I'm so happy to have you here. :) Normally I do post recipes. This one my husband actually threw together. The topping consists of- Brown sugar, butter, and oats. Just mix it all together. The center has apples between two tortillas. Bake in the oven once it is all put together. Also if you'd like, you can drizzle a simple icing on top. (powdered sugar and milk) mix until it is thick and drizzle on top. Like I said he just threw it all together. :)

Succulent Centerpiece using Dollar Tree Items

Looking to add some greenery to your space?  Hello everyone! Today, we’re going to create a quick and simple succulent display using a round baking pan from Dollar Tree. I completed this craft a while ago, but forgot to share it with you. It's an easy project, and all the materials—except for the spray paint—were purchased at Dollar Tree. You can make this lovely decoration in just 10 minutes. Let’s get started on this succulent decoration together! Materials -One baking pan -Spray paint -Stones/rocks -Crushed glass -Artificial succulents -One glass candle holder Start by applying spray paint to the baking pan. I had a bronze color from a previous project, and it would be a great opportunity to use it again. When applying spray paint, make sure to cover the surrounding area and ensure that the space is well-ventilated.  Once you have painted the pan, allow the paint to dry. I used a heating tool to speed up the drying process, but if you prefer, you can let it air dry, which m...

Keeping Blogging Positive: The Do’s and Don’ts of Community Support

The Do’s and Don’ts in a Blogging Community If there’s one thing I’ve learned over the years of blogging, it’s that the community can be one of the best parts of the whole experience — when we’re actually supporting each other. Blogging isn’t just hitting publish and hoping someone reads it. It’s connecting, showing up for one another, and creating a space where everyone feels welcome to share their voice. But let’s be honest: not every corner of the blogging world feels that way. Sometimes people forget that behind every blog is a real person doing their best. So I wanted to put together a simple, down‑to‑earth list of do’s and don’ts — the things that genuinely help build a positive blogging community, and the things that… well, don’t. Nothing complicated, nothing dramatic. Just the kind of common‑sense, supportive habits that make blogging more enjoyable for all of us. The Do’s: How We Can Lift Each Other Up Do show support in ways that feel natural to you Support doesn’t have to b...
