Have You Heard of That CRAZY WRAP THING?! (I ask this a LOT these days!)


I'm a distributor with It Works! Global and can't help but try to get the word out about our products and how working from home for this AMAZING company has and will continue to bless me and my family! The wraps are AWESOME (who wouldn't want to tighten, tone and firm in as little as 45 minutes?!), and our other products (health and wellness, weight loss, and skin care) are awesome! Right now this amazing company is offering great Christmas bonuses! I'll be getting $800 in cash to spend on gifts this year, which will be great It's SO doable and just a blessing to me so I'm sharing this opportunity with others !


To become a distributor it's $99 to sign up and get your starter kit. It comes with a box of 4 wraps and some other things like a folder and product list and a few blitz cards. You can use the wraps on yourself or sell them for cash. If you sell them for $25 or $30 each you make back what you started up for! Their compensation plan is unbelievable!There are specific reason WHY there's so much potential to make money with this company compared to other multi-level marketing companies out there. I'll tell you more if you're interested.
If you've ever wanted to be able to stay home with your kids, retire yourself or your husband early, make an extra $300/month or an extra $10,000/month, let me know and we'll talk! Send me a PM on my FB page which I'll link, or email me at:

 I am feeling sooo blessed to be doing what I do! Changing lives, with people's body image and health...being able to offer this opportunity of financial freedom! I can show people how they can get out of debt! How they can stop working 2 jobs! How they can avoid using a credit card for their kid's Christmas! I am making new friends and have a team that couldn't be more supportive or encouraging or helpful! We pray for and with each other and our success (I'm not very competitive so this is nice for me), but we are all driven and trust that God brought this into our lives for a reason! WHAT. A. BLESSING. 

I will be back to more regular blogging soon, I hope! So glad to be back!

I'm Bringing Belly Back...

I just want to prepare you all for my return! Yup, I'm coming back. Admit it...you missed me! 

I am now 22 weeks and 4 days along. Due date is May 21st, which is the day after MY birthday!

In this home, where we currently have two little girlies running around, we will be seeing.......more.......PINK! Craziness, I know.

All is going well so far. She hangs out down around my bladder, which I am almost constantly fully aware of.

For now I'll leave you with these pics (to remind you of my face, and show you my belly). And don't fret...I WILL BE BACK!!!

It's Been So Long!!!

At least it feels that way. I definitely haven't done well keeping up with this. I WANT to do better, I do! Here are my excuses...the move, my pregnancy, homeschooling Emily...do I need more? Just kidding. I could fit it in still, right? I know there are plenty of busy mommas, working women, etc who find the time to blog. 

I did actually start one a week or so ago...actually I had typed something up that was to be a status on my FB and decided it didn't belong on there but was perfect for the start of a blog entry and so I saved the draft with the intention of elaborating and, of course, STILL haven't done that. But I will!

I have a tendency to do that...procrastinate. It isn't something that I like about myself, but it happens. I tell myself that I'll get into a better routine, or even make a schedule...it just never happens! Ugh! 

On another note, I'm still working on unpacking and getting pictures hung etc. It's slow going, though. But it will get done! My parents are coming out from NC for Thanksgiving so hopefully that will help motivate me. OR I'll end up telling myself that mom can help when she gets here. Haha Which IS true...

Alrighty, now that I wrote SOMEthing I feel better. And I WILL try to do better! :-)

Boxes and Packing, Packing and More Boxes...

That's what I've been doing lately. Therefore, I haven't been blogging. We have a couple more days of finishing up and then I get to start UN packing! Yay! ;-) 

After all of this is done...there will be pics of the new, FABULOUS, place! 

Stay tuned!

Hello, weekend :-)

I just have to say that our weekends have become SO busy, it hardly feels like downtime these days. And with it being the beginning of hunting season I have officially become a "hunting widow".  But I do LOVE having my Emily home all weekend, every weekend! Makes my heart happy.

But anyway,  tomorrow morning my hubby is staying home (instead of hunting) and GETTING UP WITH THE GIRLS so that I can sleep in! By sleeping in I mean 8:30 or 9:00 (we have to be at church at 9:30)...but still, I am SO EXCITED!!! Lol I NEVER thought I would consider 8:30 "sleeping in".

Okay, I just wanted to make a new post. I'm tired of seeing my vampire face every time I get on. Haha 

Hope everyone enjoys the rest of the weekend!

Just ME (a wedding and a vampire)! :-)

So I have still been so busy, and I haven't had much to blog about anyway. BUT this past weekend I went to a wedding, and I felt kinda pretty. So...I'm just gonna come off as a little self centered for a minute and show myself off ;-)




And for a contest in my FAVE Cafemom group, I became a vampire today. Haha


I did another one and had to add it!


Short and sweet, that's it for today. Have a great one!

Fall Flavors (Picture This)...

I'm sitting here nauseous (as is the norm lately), thinking up a post and I can't get my mind away from some of my Favorite Fall Flavors. 

And I want to SEE all the things I'm thinking about so I'm going to find yummy pics, too! Ooooh, yeah!

 I LOVE Thanksgiving! The whole meal that we have is at the top of my faves list. Ours is usually pretty traditional and simple, just how I like it! Turkey, dressing, cranberry sauce, mashed 'taters and gravy, pea salad (one of my favorite things!), sweet potato casserole (among other things)...Oh! And we started a few years ago doing a traditionally baked turkey AND a deep fried turkey (if you haven't tried that, you're missing out...seriously!)...I'm hungry just thinking about it!


Okay, I'll be honest...our spread looks nothing like this, but I thought it was beautiful...love all the fall colors!

Then there's dessert. Pecan pie, pumpkin pie, fudge, and other miscellaneous sweets (we always experiment with new desserts). One of my VERY faves is this:


Pumpkin cheesecake...it. is. DIVINE. Geez, I want some now!

Aside from Thanksgiving, some other fall faves include homemade chili (this is actually mine I made recently...could have used a prettier bowl, huh?).


Homemade stew (not my pic, but sure looks yummy!):


My hubby's homemade hot chocolate:


Goodies I like to make like these (bad pic because there were prettier ones than these! Lol):


 And these:


The slew of candy the girls bring in from trick-or-treating (which my preggo self already can't wait for!):


Oh, and I can't forget mine and my hubby's famous duck gumbo (it's AMAZING and literally takes hours to make...and SO worth it!), and yes...this is a pic of ours:


Our recipe is derived from the one and only Duck Commander. Thank you, sir!

Gosh, I'll leave it at this...I am now hungry and ready to start making all these things! :-) What are some of YOUR fall faves?!

Exhaustion and Chaos and Fun (with pics to prove it!)...

I know I haven't written lately. I. Have. Been . Exhausted. I mean, that's totally normal in pregnancy, but throw in the fact that we've been so busy lately. And that I babysat a precious 6 week old Monday and Tuesday, plus my regular little guy on Tuesday as well, had to be up at 6:30 both of those days, with one or both of my girls still waking up in the night, feeling like I'm not getting anything done around the house...yeah. You get the point. 

Needless to say, I have a LOT to get done today! I haven't hardly been on the computer at all this week (so I'm making up for that right now). I talked to my mom one day but other than that haven't talked to anyone. I was in bed at 9:50 Monday night (that's early for me!), and have skipped my nightly bath/shaving time TWO nights already this week (rarely happens). 

I'm SO ready to move into the new house...I can't wait to have a place for all the things that I don't have a place for right now.

Oh! Over the weekend we FINALLY got to take the girls bowling. It was Emily's reward for getting her 10 stickers for "obeying and following instructions" at school. We had a good time, though it wasn't quite what Emily expected (her words)...the girl is used to being a pro at Wii bowling and couldn't even hold the real ball it was so heavy for her. Haha But she still enjoyed it!


Emily went hunting with her daddy yesterday and had a good time! Yay for daddy/daughter time...so precious. I'll leave you with a picture of her adorable face and then I need to get to cleaning, laundry, more cleaning, a shower, and...more cleaning.
