The score was 57 to 30. It was late in the fourth quarter. It was pretty obvious to everyone in the gym who was going to win the game. All of a sudden the gym went quiet. "Did he just get a technical?" you could hear whispered from a wife to her husband. The losing team's star player hobbled out into the court to take the two free throw shots. For a moment, everyone in the gym was ...
Step Away From the Phone!
A few week's ago we went over to a friends place for a few hours to relax an unwind. As always, I had my trusty cell phone with me. After all, you just never know when you're going to get a message for one of your blogs, a new e-mail, or a new client who wants some answers. We were having a great time, chatting, having a drink, and watching our kids play together. That's when the first ...

Regardless, my next move was not my nicest - or brightest - moment as a big sister. We started at the house steps, and I ...
Our Love Story: Part 2
A few days ago I shared Part 1 of our love story. Today I'm going to share Part 2. Today we'll talk about moving across the state, getting engaged, and our wedding. :) When we left off yesterday, Andrew and I had just started dating. We were in that happy, blissful place where every relationship starts. We thought we were falling in love, we were happy, and we couldn't get enough of one ...
Our Love Story: Part 1
While I generally love to share money saving ideas, parenting tips, or fun kids activities - I wanted to switch it up a bit today. Sometimes I think it's nice to get to know the person behind the blog on a more personal level. That's why I'm going to share our love story - the story of Andrew and Heather. I hope it'll bring a smile to your face, and make you laugh. (No, it's not all that ...
