July 4th

I have tried starting this blog several times, but I keep getting sidetracked. Life has been so crazy! But I think it’s beginning to chill out.

I’m hoping to write regularly here, with an emphasis on motherhood, marriage, health, and home life. I have five kids (two older, one middle, and two younger) and I’ve been happily married to their dad for over twenty years. Our family has faced a lot of challenges in recent years, both medical and emotional. But we are very close-knit and work really hard to have the best life possible.

As I’m sure you know, yesterday was the Fourth of July and I think it was truly one of the best holidays we’ve had in a while. We had special food, games, watched a movie, and did fireworks.

Even though there aren’t any holidays to be had for a number of months now, we’re still making plans. Our next adventure is to go on vacation. Will it be to the beach or to the mountains? We haven’t decided yet, but my vote will always, always be the beach! lol

How has your weekend been so far?
