Until two weeks ago, I had two ways of choosing the appliance that was right for our home. The first (and most important in my book) was the look of the appliance. Was it aesthetically pleasing and would it match the mood of the room along with the other appliances? The second factor for me in choosing an appliance was the price. My contractor husband is always on the look out for "out of the box" deals at our local Home Depot and Lowes. We were told not too long ago by an appliance repair man that the life span of … [Read more...]

The Story Of How We Made It Into Rome
By on May 26, 2011 with
Lately we have had the travel bug bad. Granted, we have had a get-away weekend with the GE Momsperience. But, for us that never cures the fever it actually infects us with more need to roam. Kristin likes to think we're nomads or gypsys at heart! We don't let much stop us from travel. We have 9 kids between our two families. Every couple of years we find time to go with just the 4 of us. This past year we went to Cancun. Did we ever tell you about the time we went to Italy with a baby? Did we ever share about how … [Read more...]

Fancy Friday~Summer Cocktail
By on May 13, 2011 with
It's that time of year again. It's the time when we "theme" our summer. Part of "themeing" our summer, is adding a summer cocktail to the mix. It's a tradition that began in Italy and it is a part of how we roll. There's something about summer that ushers in a chance to revitalize, re-envision and rest. Sure we know that the summer brings kids running through the house all day long, prepping pool bags and packing countless snacks for the day and trying to keep everyone from being bored. Part of our strategy is the summer … [Read more...]
