Wordless Wednesday: Ode to Purple Socks

POSTED BY Amy at 7:05 AM


It is eighty degrees and we hike our warm knee-high socks up. She swings them while she eats her breakfast. Her purple socks make her the best ice skater across our hardwood floors and her ballerina moves are just a little more flowing with these purple wonders.

I understand it. I am a girl.

I hold this moment in my heart for as long as I can as I watch those purple hearts swinging.

Happiness Is...Meeting Someone I Admire

POSTED BY Amy at 7:30 AM

Finally, a picture has surfaced of myself & Miss Paula Deen! As you can see from my face, I am getting ready to start bursting into tears because I admire her so much. The story of her investment of $200 into a business to pull her family out of debt is so inspiring to me. If she can do it, couldn't I do something just as amazing for my family?

Thank you to Classy Mommy for sending me this picture. I have a feeling that this memory is going to provide some motivation for me to do something great someday!

Do you have a goal in mind for your home business or for your finances? What provides motivation for you? How do you maintain your focus towards your goals?

Happiness Is...The Family Fair

POSTED BY Amy at 7:00 AM



My dad's company picnic was this weekend. It is something that the kids look forward to every single year. What's not to love? Free food, unlimited turns in the bouncy house, tons of games and activities, belly aches all around, tantrums, sugar highs, and lots of tears near the end. We enjoy it all... until that last hour.

I think more than that though, it is seeing my dad all puffed up, strutting us around like a proud peacock, and showing off his children and grandkids. We do it for that moment every year. Just that moment makes it all worth it for me as a daughter!

What family events do you do every year to make your family proud? Do you have an event or reunion that your family does?

Happiness Is...Family Day Trips

POSTED BY Amy at 7:00 AM


Who could resist a fun day at the lake? Ryan's family had a little reunion in Culver, IN and we headed there for the day! Sunburns and freckles all around for our really lily-white crew, but we had an amazing time! My husband took a zillion pictures of me in the water with my kids. Yes, this never happens because I can't swim, but the shallow water and hot sun lured me in. It was wonderful!

This one just couldn't go wordless!

Hundreds of Toys & Clothes for Christmas, But...

POSTED BY Amy at 1:27 PM


Running around in our diaper and playing with a plastic tote is much more fun! Throw in a hanger and tell them it is an oar...instant boat! Just goes to show how great the little things in life are!

Note to self- spend less next year!

**Visit Wordless Wednesday for more great photos!**
