In the years before Broxton, I always heard of the events - mostly after the fact, but either way, I was never able to go, since I was always working... But - now that we are able to go to things, I never really know what is going on that I want to go to the most... Seriously, it seems like there is ALWAYS a festival, convention, exhibit or SOMETHING going on SOMEWHERE and of course, I would love to do it all...  But, we all know that finances and time just don't allow for that.  So, we have to weigh things out and see what is most likely to be the most fun for us... I saw that Atlanta Comic Con was headed our way,...

Opinions expressed are my own and are NOT influenced by monetary compensation. Although Broxton is not technically a "baby" anymore... He will ALWAYS be MY baby...  I know I am not the only mom that feels that way, right?! I have mentioned before that Broxton has eczema... Sometimes it is bad, sometimes you don't even know he has it... It just sort of comes and goes...  When it does flare up, I try and treat his skin a little bit more delicate than other times (gosh, that doesn't sound so good... but I mean I lotion him up more... we are more watchful in the tub.. things like that.. It does NOT mean I am negligent... just more conscientious... ) Anyways...  One thing I do love is taking care of his skin and keeping it as "baby soft" as long as possible. When I he...

You all KNOW how much I love celebrities... So, I had to share this with you: Because if I was into any of the Real Housewives of Wherever... I would totally be heading to Kroger to meet Kim!!!! (Although I am tempted to go, just to say I did... I have several friends that are OBSESSED, so it would be a great conversation piece!)   So - if you are in or near Atlanta... and you love RHOA, then I have a great event for you!!!!! ** I was not required to post this, I just did so that if any of you were fans, you would know!  You know I love ya!!!!

I have a product to tell all you pretties about... Skindinavia!  It is a Makeup Finishing Spray that celebrities use and you can too! The Original Makeup Finishing Spray sets and holds makeup in place.  Keeps color vibrant and prevents makeup from fading for up to 16 hours.  Recommended for normal to combination skin types.   Features and Benefits: Fewer touchups throughout the day Stops makeup meltdown Holds eye shadow, foundation, blush and concealer perfectly. Award winning They also have a "no more shine" product too! The description on there says "Leave your blotting papers and powder at home."   I have to be really honest here... I do not wear makeup. I wear it from time to time: As in: weddings, deaths, birthday parties, church with my parents and holidays. I planned on wearing it when we go to church on Sunday, but I just don't. I never have been a makeup person. You either love me or hate me, but makeup isn't going...

Breaking News in the delicious world of candy!!!!! Today, I have two pieces of great tasting information to share with you! Up First :   Did you hear the news of Mike and Ike? I received an email about it and although I was never a Mike and Ike fan... (Truth be told, I don't think I had ever tried them...) I was a bit saddened by the news of their split...  It seems as though Mike and Ike are no longer Mike and Ike... Mike is off pursuing his musical dreams... and Ike is working on his artistry!!! No Mike and Ike is like peanut butter and no jelly. Ham no burger. Ice no cream. Koolaid no sugar.. It just is not right! As you can imagine... There is a heated debate going on at this house.. Marc is Team Ike all the way and Broxton is adamantly pulling for Mike!   Image: NVision Photography Remember how I said I wasn't a fan?  Well, that was before I tried these bits of yummy goodness!  I was able to snag a coupl...

It is Friday! Time to link up with Kailani and enjoy the weekend!!!! My question this week: Are you a celebrity junkie? As in, do you like meeting celebrities? If there was a movie/tv show being filmed near you, would you go to try and see if you could catch a glimpse? I am... Marc isn't and he thinks I am crazy for doing so, but I just think it would be neat!   Like the story I can tell Broxton about when ANN MARGRET held him as a baby...  See?  Great stories!!!! Have a Great Weekend!!!!

When Marc returned from his deployment... He had different ARMY things to do during the day, and while he did that... Broxton and I hung out at the hotel. Well, one day... We went to visit a friend of mine on the set of ARMY WIVES. (You KNOW I LOVE that show... ) Well, she was working and we got to go and see her for a few minutes. I mean, we were close and we did NOT want to pass this chance up. So, I got there... and hung out with her husband until she had a free minute... It was a busy day and I was just kinda "there" I was so excited hanging out... (Let me tell you, I LOVE celebrities... not in the stalker way, but in the "if you are a celebrity and are cool, I will support you all I can... If you think you are too good, I will remember that too!") Well, I got to meet Sally Pressman - She plays Roxy... Total sweetheart and Broxton LOVED her puppy! I met Kim Delaney (Claudia Joy) for a second... (she came and introduced herself.. so nice, like I would NOT know...
