Happy Memorial Day!


Thank you to all the men and women serving our country here and around the world!  

I would like to remember my paternal grandfather, Harry E. Allen, who passed away in 2000. Harry was an amazing man who fought for our freedom in WWII, Korea and twice in Vietnam. He had a great love of our country and his family and is missed everyday!

A heartfelt thank you to my father and maternal grandfather, both of whom were career Army officers, as well as my brother who served our country in Iraq.

Freedom is not free. This nation will remain the land of the free only so long as it is the home of the brave. The next time you see a US soldier at a restaurant or the airport, please take a moment to thank them and shake their hand! These brave men and women are heroes!

God Bless America!

My Latest Obsession!

I have a new obsession at least once a month...here's my latest one:



How fabulous is this necklace?  Scarlet Lime sells the kits to create this necklace--you've got to go check them out! And the BEST part about these necklaces is that the dangle line (the part with all the beads) unhooks from the necklace and you can add other dangle lines in different colors! I'm in LOVE!

I Am Irritated!


Ok, let me clarify: I'm not irritated, but apparently my 3 year old daughter is! She announced this last night when I did not rise from the table quickly enough when she announced she would like some chocolate milk! Seriously?? Little girls are so funny...it's amazing to me how different they are from little boys, and how drama just seems to be part of their DNA!
