thoughts: New mama♥miss Format!

Thursday, August 9, 2012 4 Comments

Why, Hello!

Has it been a week already?

Whew!  Well, I have to be honest here, although I took a blog vaca, it really wasn’t a “TRUE” vacation.  I didn’t go anywhere (good thing we just did that beach week so it felt kind of like a vacation :)!

I bet you are wondering what I did.  Well, try to contain your excitement here…I got caught up on some projects & some cleaning (what’s that, you’re jealous of my vacation ;)

  1. I had new profile pics done by one of my favorite people!  It was a little impromptu photo shoot that lasted all of about 15 minutes the other night in her backyard – HA!  I think they turned out great – I ♥ them – now you don’t have to stare at the grainy webcam picture of myself ;)  Check one out here, and scroll down to the bottom of my web page to see the other one :)
  2. I completed a guest post that will debut next week – EEK, I can’t WAIT – super excited!!
  3. I have been working feverishly on getting my Etsy shop up & running.  It will have all kinds of themed printable goodies & packages;  Kiddo parties, wedding announcements, baby announcements, etc.  My shop will also have the handmade flower headbands I make for little miss V, as well as some other fun things I’m working on too!  Soon, Soon, Soon! :)
  4. And…I actually sat down for a moment & came up with a master plan.  I put it down on paper (instead of writing it down in my head) and came up with a new format for mama♥miss that I am anxious to try!  I think it will work really well in terms of a little bit more structure.  It will be basically along the same lines, I still plan on doing a different theme each week, but now you know what to expect each day :)  So, here goes…

Whatdaya think?

There will probably be some tweaks along the way, until it’s fine tuned, but I think I may have a new format!!! :)

I’ll kick off next week, Monday to be exact, with the new format & go from there – YAY!!!  I’m super stoked :)

Stay tuned…tomorrow I will have a new yummy post for you in the meantime! :)

    I think that sound like an awesome plan! You are super woman to post so much great content all the time! I try to just do one project a week along with the link party and can’t even keep up ;) I can’t wait to see what you come up with next. Keep it up, girl! You’re doing great! I really like what you’re doing with Wednesday, I always feel like I should do something more on the personal side but I guess I’m still just getting a feel for everything. I’m excited for Thursday too. And Friday. Monday and Tuesday too :)

      Thanks Britni! You are doing an AMAZING job too – more than an amazing job – a SPECTACULAR JOB! There are so many blogs out there that, I like the content but I don’t like the visual of it, or vice versa, but girl, your blog is gorgeous in both aspects – I ♥ ♥ ♥ the design & I adore the content! Thanks for taking the time to comment – I really appreciate you input & thoughts :) I’m headed over to your link party now!!! :)

      xx ♥ m

“Two kinds of gratitude: The sudden kind we feel “Two kinds of gratitude: The sudden kind we feel for what we take; the larger kind we feel for what we give.” – Edwin Arlington Robinson

🐕💛🐈

Yesterday, V & her friend volunteered at our local animal shelter to braid beds for the shelter cats.  They then took turns reading to one of the cats, a cat who was having trouble eating that the shelter was hoping the interaction would coax him up & about.

I love that my kiddos have reached that middle school age where they can volunteer more easily without much parental help.  Our local animal shelter allows kiddos to volunteer (with a parent there) at age 10. It’s really rad to see them come into their own with understanding on how to have an active role in participating and volunteering in their community, and what a reward it is to give 🤩

Maybe this year, to balance the list, we ought to walk through the rooms of our lives...not looking for flaws, but for potential.” - Ellen Goodman

🌟Potential.  YESSSSS 🙌🏻 I really like this quote 🌟

🧐🔍Seeing the positive first is a great mantra to have when we tend to automatically gravitate towards things that are negative.

🪄Here’s to a bright 2021 and a purposeful positive outlook. 🎉

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!🌟🌟🌟 🤗 How did you HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!🌟🌟🌟

🤗 How did you celebrate the arrival of 2021? 

🎲We played board games all night (cough cough surprise surprise 🤣) while munching on this charcuterie board.

🥳I surprised Eric & the kids by going all fancy for dinner last night. I wasn’t sure the kids would like the goat cheese (my favorite with fig spread 🤤) so I added some basic cheddar. But they LOVED it - I spread a little on one of the plain crackers with fig spread on top. So good! 

🍈Fig spread, goat cheese, & 2 large crackers is from @wholefoods 
🍇Grapes are from @costco (they have the best grapes!)
🪴Rosemary springs are from our garden.
🧀Everything else is from @traderjoes

Eeeeeep I’m so excited for my happy mail today!! Eeeeeep I’m so excited for my happy mail today!!🤗 (now if all my other mail I’m waiting on would arrive 🧐😩)

🦀🐙🐡I backed Open Ocean from @featherstonegames on @kickstarter this summer.  It’s so incredibly neat to see a game come together from start to finish.

🐠🐟🐬This game is beautiful I can’t wait to sit to play with the kids as they become budding marine biologists.

He’s a little bit funky... a little bit rock n r He’s a little bit funky... a little bit rock n roll. - I’m kinda loving him though, my little abstract tree.🎄

🧵Right before my dad passed last year, during my last visit with him, he gave me this giant bag of these vintage-y wooden spools knowing that I’d use them in my art classes or some other creative way. 

🧐As I was lesson planning this weekend the idea came to me when I peeked them in my wood craftin’ drawer - CHRISTMAS TREE!! 

✂️I also have a simpler idea in mind with no wire bending/cutting to try it in my art classes as a kinda ‘extra’ project for early finishers. Stay tuned!

Happy Thanksgiving 🍁🦃🍽 I’m grateful th Happy Thanksgiving 🍁🦃🍽 
I’m grateful this Thanksgiving for my Dad ❤️ 

📖📖📖When he was alive I’m not sure I appreciated this book as much, but now that he’s gone it’s made me appreciate him even more that he took the time to catalog all our family recipes into two cookbooks for us to have. 

🦃🍁🍂This Thanksgiving without my mom joining us (she’s with friends this year) I was without her traditional treats like my favorite Pumpkin Cheesecake.

💪🏻So I attempted that (my first cheesecake EVER!) and Tussies (mini pecan pies) from scratch using my families recipes.  I’m so excited to dig in today and the whole time making them made me feel extremely #grateful for my Dad & all he did for his family. 💕
