Clean Sink

As many of you know, Pinterest is fabulous!!  Well, at least it is some days!  I find that for me it works best if I do not search for specific items and just browse through what comes up!

I was on there briefly last week and came across a cleaning idea!

This idea is genius!

You sprinkle baking soda salt in your stainless steel sink.  Take a wet sponge and scrub it clean!

 Before

After

As many of you probably do, I clean my sink often but I do not always scrub it!  So, now our sinks look like brand new!  And it was so easy and quick!

What have you tried on Pinterest?!

I'm Really Bad at This...

First off sorry Jen and Jenn for missing my blog on Saturday!  I'm the first to admit that I am a bad blogger! I'm supposed to blog every Tuesday and Saturday and for some reason it often slips my mind. It's not that I don't want to blog- it's that I just forgot.  The funny thing about it is that I'm very organized at work and never miss deadlines, but that is because I use Outlook for everything. I'm thinking I'm going to need to schedule my blogging in my Outlook! 

Ok so really my blog isn't just about being bad at blogging, it's also about being bad at keeping secrets.  If you remember back on my blog about surprises I talked about a surprise that I haven't told anyone and I'm proud to say that I have still kept it a secret, but it is getting very hard.  I have to keep telling myself that I can do this..I think I can I think I can.  I can't reveal the surprise yet, but soon I will be letting you all know what it is.  Stay tuned.

Drummond Island

We decided awhile ago to spend 4th of July weekend on an island!  We'd been watching videos and looking online at what to expect but nothing can prepare you for Drummond Island.

It is beautiful, quiet, fun, relaxing and most importantly Pure Michigan!!!  

 This is Del's face when he finally saw the big Mighty Mac!!  :)

 Apparently, it was too much excitement for him!  :)

 After we got to Wa-Wen Resorts, and were all set up, we went for a ride!  Both boys LOVED every minute in our rhino!  Within, minutes Abe was usually asleep!  :)  

I believe the picture above is Scott Bay, not sure...

 This shoreline was breathtaking! 

I would highly recommend visiting Drummond Island!  Stay tuned to many more posts on our wonderful trip to the U.P.!

 

 

This is the Life

I can officially say we have a happy little camper on our hands.  Yup, this has been what life has been like for the past couple weeks and weeks to come.  It's nice to be able to spend some quality time with family.  Maddie LOVES to be outside and around kids so much this is where we will be for most of the summer.  The family have lake frontage property that we all bring our campers to for the summer.  We are very fortunate to have these memories and milestones for sure.  And thanks Auntie Heidi for the bathing suit--everyone loves it!

The kids sleep so good down there because they play all day--I love it!  We make some good food and most of all relax while we watch the kids, gotta love it.

Maddie even had her first jet ski ride and of course..........she loved it as well.  She even shakes her booty with the radio playing on the pontoon boat.

Hope everyone is enjoying their summer! 

 

 

Happy 4th of July!!!

We hope you all have a great day with your family and friends! 

 

 

Hurts soo Good

I recently joined a health club in Rockford and I have decided I am going to do a half marathon in October. I can't believe I am saying this as I really do hate running and the one half marathon I trained for over 5 years ago I blew my knee out a week before the race.  I think the reason why I am committed to training to the race is that it gives me a goal and will make me dedicated to running.  This past week I have worked out quite a bit and am really feeling the pain; however it is a good pain.  Working out helps relieve stress and helps clear my mind, which is exactly what I need!  Stay tuned over the next few months as I plan to post my progress- I also plan on losing some weight along the way with the help of my Evolv products and running. 

 

Perfect Timing!

Just when I'm feeling blue.

When I think to myself, "Okay, must not be our time!" 

Just when I'm making more house plans to where we are staying.

I love this!!!

God tunes in and guess what?!?!  Do you give up? 

We have a showing today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


It's been almost 3 months since we've had a showing!  Maybe it's our time or maybe our house needed to be cleaned!


Either way, it's in God's hands and we are completely trusting Him!  :)


Have a blessed day!
