Liar, Liar, Liar....

Liar Liar pants on fire.... First let me warn you don't google liar liar pants on fire and just click the first website on the page to find out the rest of the rhyme.....Yep it pulls up a dirty site that you cant click out of because it keeps resetting to the dirty site! Especially when your kids are sitting in the same room! Worst panic ever trying to close the dang thing down! Anyhow so you can figure I am just NOT going to search the rest of that rhyme. Liar, Liar.... Stupid liar. and yes I am talking about myself. I have realized as I get older that stupid white lies suck. It is so easy to say a little white lie or exaggeration (because yes that is a lie) that turns into a lie you tell yourself that turns into a lie that you really start to believe. Kinda crazy right!?! Let me explain. One of my inner demons I struggle with is weight.....WOW SHOCKER RIGHT! It makes me do stupid things or believe stupid things or say stupid things. Well I got offended, then I complained ...

We be preppin...They hatin..They All Think I'm Kind of Crazy

Ever see those crazy people who plan life. Plan for everything; meals, meal prep, workouts, working, playdates, park trips, Life! Well I have noticed, for my sanity, I am becoming one of those people. Without a plan and with the business that happens in life it is so easy to get stressed out over the simplest things like dinner! So simple but when you have school, swim, tball, dets, work schedules, house work, errands, and life, dinner can so easily turn into cereal, junk food, takeout, and/or panic over not having anything DE thawed from the freezer. Part of this whole #AGCountDownTo30 is also a huge part of #TheGroomsPurge. (Yes there will be a post haha) But part of this is meal prepping. Meal prepping can affect so much of your life more than just being ready for dinner. By meal prepping we are able to keep in check what we are eating, the money we are dishing out on our dishes, the money being thrown away every time we throw out old food or freezer burnt food. The biggest comp...

Wine, Leggings, and A Goblet. My Writing Essentials!

The kids are in bed, the hubby is working, my work is done for the night and now I am equipped with my favorite writing things. My favorite wine glass (yes I have a favorite haha), wine, comfies and computer. All the things to make the best writing equipment!     My equipment:   1. There are these amazing things that I wasn't willing to pay for and didn't understand the craze called Lularoe leggings. OMG! YES! Most comfortable things in the world! So after saying I would never buy any I gave in and tried them......A week later I bought 3 more!!! Crazy, Crazy prints and I cant wait until my friend gets her first supply so I can raid her supply for more!!! Never would I think I would wear RASPBERRY PRINT LEGGINGS! Yep they are my favorite!

Today I wore my blue and red ones to drop off Aiden for the first day of school with a long sweater type shirt. I also have purple wit...

Little man in a big world.

 Today my oldest son starts Kindergarten. I was not the blubbering mess that I thought I would be but I had so many emotions last night as we were getting things ready for the big day. He went to the PreK program at the same school so I had an idea of how things would go. The PreK program was great way for him to get to know the school at a part time bases. He started today knowing the lay of the land, understanding how to walk through the hall, knowing where the cafeteria is, the bathrooms, his hallway, some friends. He has been so excited for today and asked all summer when he gets to go back to school. Last night we picked out his cloths for the week, read his new book Clifford Goes To Kindergarten, put new batteries in his Batman alarm clock and had it set and ready for his first day. He helped pack his Ninja Turtles lunch bag; he picked his chips (potato of course), treat (rice crispies), fruit (pluot), veggies (carrot strips), yogurt, juice box, and m...

#AGCountDownTo30

Thirty............Thirty..............Thirty................Thirty................THIRTY!!!! I could never imagine this day. All of my life 30 was SO old. Like you were officially a dinosaur at 30. How crazy is it that! I am almost officially dinosaur status. Now that it is around to corner I cannot wait to turn 30! It is a new decade of life. SO much had changed in a decade and it feels so good to be turning a page into a new chapter of life.  I cannot wait to see what this chapter brings. My 20's have been so much better than I could have asked for! I have done and seen so much.  So many highlights (that I have already stared another post for). But I have determined that 30 is officially going to be my year. I love that I keep seeing Wonder Woman officially turns 30 this year because that is exactly how I feel. Like Wonder Woman, I feel like I am at a place where life really is great, I am so comfortable with who I AM and ...

Bravely BeLI(e)VING

Some people are gonna ask, so I am gonna put it out there. What is with the new title???? Well a lot has changed in life. I have found I want to expand the things in life that I talk about. "I Am Beautiful (No Matter What I Say)" is still so relevant in my life but I want  to touch base on somethings that I feel God has put in my heart and on my mind. "Bravely BeLI(e)VING" is about bravely believing and living a life that is Christ centered. It is about loving myself the way God made me. Believing, even when every turn seems to have a struggle. Believing, that if I follow the path God puts in front of me I will survive, I will strive, I will change hearts, and I will make a difference if only I bravely believe and live the path he guides me on. Life is not sunshine and rainbows but there can be sunshine even in the worst of the storms. So I will be brave, I will believe, and I will live a life that is beautiful. XOXO, Beautiful

It's Official

I don't know why, when it comes to the people who mean the most to me, I am at a total loss for words. Trying to write down how much someone means to me, how much they have impacted my life. How I could not see who I am today without having them in my life. THAT is hard! This is a special day. A day for the record books. The most amazing man in my life hits the big -3-0-! Thirty that's right ladies and gentlemen. My husband has officially hit the (hold for shock value) THIRTIES. But let me get a little real with you and say. DAMN 30 looks sexy! My husband always says I'm like wine you only get better with age...which I retort with yes I am...a boxed wine. But let me tell you my husband is more attractive now than he has ever been. But it goes beyond the physical. He is an amazing father and husband. He loves unconditionally. He is compassionate. He is a hard and good worker. He is dedicated. He is faithful. He IS the real deal. BUT.... He's taken so find your own. B...
