Taking a Break

Once upon a time I had a baby in my belly - 10 years ago actually!

W/ a scream, Finley arrived 5 weeks earlier than expected.

Everyone came bursting in to learn Baby was a BOY!

I was a mom!


And that made 3!

They were grandparents!


She was an auntie!

Fast forward a few years and there was another baby bump.

This time everyone rushed in to learn we had a GIRL! 

I was a mom again!


A mom of 2!


And we became 4 💗


They were grandparents again!

And he was a brother!


Fast forward 6 more years...now I'm a stay-at-home mom of 2 super-busy kids and I'm currently involved in/on 9 various committees in our community/church/school. And judging by the pictures below, I'm apparently too busy to comb my hair and wear hats each day 😉 But, those are also some of the reasons why I'm going to take a break from blogging...(keep going, there's a little more below)...


...It's very bittersweet - truthfully, the decision isn't sweet at all. But I haven't been finding the time to do this the way I want to anymore. I really like sharing stories, I really like writing, I really like looking through all of my pictures. I'm simply not keeping up w/ it and it's become a chore. And no one looks forward to doing chores. I'm OCD-enough, that even a simple post takes a few hours, throw in a holiday and I easily have 5-8+ hours involved (I know, that's crazy). So for my sanity, it needs to stop for now. 
Christmas 2017 & Winter Break (two posts) are posted below and that felt like a good (temporary?!) ending spot. And of course I will continue to over-share on Facebook and Instagram 😋 Thanks for hanging w/ me for 10 years on Blogger, maybe it'll be temporary and I'll come back w/ new energy for this again, we'll see 😊
