I think sharing my most embarrassing moment EVER has to be on this list.
I mean....it was EPIC.
Can you guess what happened......
I am glad I can laugh about it now.

I loved my post "Yes, I am one of those Moms"
I actually got nominated as one of Blogher's Voice of the Year for that post. Crazy!

I wrote about how I am one of "THOSE" moms who likes to make holidays/birthdays/etc special for their kids.

Birth Stories!!!
I am OBSESSED with birth stories!
We didn't find out what we were having until they were born, so it was extra fun!
Here are my kids birth stories:

I think this might be my all time favorite post.
It's called "Relish Your Role"
I wrote it after hearing a sermon at church.

At that time in my life I had A LOT of working mom guilt, so the sermon was perfect timing for me to hear and on that post I wrote from my heart & it felt so good to write about it.

When I confessed that I HATE Pumpkin Spice Latte's.
Yes, it's true.

This recipe has been viewed almost 2 million times. WHAT?!?!?
And, it is my most controversial post....it is the post I have gotten the most negative comments on. You either love this recipe or you hate it.
We love it...It's one of my go-to recipes. And, it's the easiest!
Basically, I love my slow cooker & use it at least once a week during the school year.
Here are a few more of my favorites....

I must say, that is probably my favorite party I have thrown also.

This is one of my VERY favorite things to blog about.
You take 10 pictures on the 10th of the month
One photo every hour for 10 hours:
Documenting a snapshot of your life & find beauty among the ordinary things in your day!
I have been participating in this since October 2008....so for the past 8 years, I have done 10 on 10 posts....Those are by far some of my Favorite posts!
You can see all my 10 on 10 posts HERE

I will say, that I miss really sitting down and writing like I did in some of those posts like "Relish Your Role", "Yes, I am one of those moms" and "I was the BEST MOM EVER. Then I had kids"
I love writing those types of posts....I really want to start writing like that every once in a while.
If you made it through this post...Thank You!
Can't wait to read some of your FAVORITE blog posts!
