The Time He Spent Easter at Traffic School

April 30, 2008

     Jeff says I have a bad habit (I consider it more of a necessity) of giving him driving directions when we’re in the car together.  It’s less that I give him directions really and more that I point to a turn lane here and there or occasionally tap my finger on the passenger side window to let him [...]

La La Luggage Tags

April 30, 2008

     Look what came in the mail today!  I won these adorable luggage tags in a giveaway over at Musings of a Housewife.  They are made by My Charmed Life and they are going to come in really handy when I’m trying to discern which bag is mine as a ton of lookalikes go trolling [...]

Tacos With a Side of Egg On My Face

April 27, 2008

     You remember that Mexican restaurant I talked about in this post?  Well folks, brace yourself for the shocker of the century: we went back after church again today.  Yep.  I told my family that I thought we should go to the other location of the restaurant so as not to be recognized by Tyler, the [...]
