Blogging has brought many MANY blessings into my life. Not only does it allow me an outlet of expression for all the random clutter that runs around in my little head, but it also has allowed me the opportunity to make friends. I never dreamed 3 years ago when I began blogging that it would [...]

My motto:

Shannon and I were looking around at this cute little store in my town the other day and found this sign.
It’s one of my favorite sayings!

We have truly enjoyed our time together.
We’ll be sharing some great stories of our adventure once we’re back to our homes.

While our daughters were home on Election Day, they created a little surprise for their Dad and I while we were at both at work. They were so excited to give us each an envelope when we arrived home with the first clue to a Scavenger Hunt. This is a fun little game we usually [...]

She’s here! She’s here! We rolled back into town from the airport about midnight, after a late dinner and a drive filled with LOTS of laughter! (and some snorting…)
My kids tried to make her feel welcomed with this on the front porch:

Ya’ll have a great day…  we’ll have some adventures to share later, I’m sure!

Ya’ll crack me up! Almost every single person guessed that I sent in the Hot Tamales… and I suppose since you’ve heard me say how much I love them in the past - that it would be OBVIOUS that was mine, right??
Well, guess what?
It wasn’t ME! It wasn’t ME!
Someone else sent that photo in so [...]

I was a little concerned about posting my thoughts on the book, because I was afraid I’d sound like a tee-total DORK. But, the host asked some fabulous and thought-provoking [...]

My girls like to do things they can do *together*, as you might remember from last year:

This year they decided to turn in their shoulder pads in exchange for a little Dr. Suess:

Aren’t they hilarious??? LOVE them…. one of my all-time favorites. That blue hair (which was formerly a bathroom rug) just cracked me [...]

Welcome to November and NaBloPoMo!   Since I signed up to do this month of blogging everyday at NaBloPoMo, I’ve seen visitors begin to wander over already so I thought I’d take a quick moment to introduce myself to anyone new.
I’m Gina, but you can call me Dory, at your service. I’ve been blogging since [...]

!3 Random Moments of my week:

A patient said to me, “You know, my mouth SHOULD be bigger because of how much I talk, shouldn’t it?” LOL  I could only laugh in response - because based on that logic - I know a LOT of people that should have  bigger mouths.  (Myself included!)
Luby was retested for [...]
