Saying yes in a world full of No’s

February 23, 2017 - admin 7 Comments

I think I have said no more in the last five and a half years than I ever have in my life.  Why in the last five and a half years?  Because that is when I became a mom.  As a mother, I have become so good at saying no… pretty much ALL.THE.TIME. Mom canRead more

I don’t know if you know this but I used to work for a gaming company, and was quite into gaming consoles and playing the games that came along with them.  I LOVED my job.  I mean HELLO… I was paid to play games! (a lot of the time I also had to do likeRead more

On Pixie Cuts and Growing Pains…

February 10, 2017 - admin 10 Comments

A little over a year ago I was so bored with my hair, it was driving me mad and I was desperate for something new and fresh.  My mom and sister had been nagging advising me about thinking about cutting it all off and the more I thought about it the more apealing the ideaRead more

Lessons I learned while running a Marathon…
Getting my Switch on
Hi! I’m Sam & these are the musings of my life…

Woman, wife & mom. Wine drinker, wannabe marathon runner, avid reader, ice cream lover! Join me as I blurt about the musings of this thing we call life...

Happy Grams!

  • My Hurricane. Look at this “miss madam” personality that just shines through... my jewel, she shines no matter what!

  • Fire in the sky.

  • We don’t “do” Valentine’s Day.  It’s never really been our thing, as we believe it takes more than one day a year to hold a marriage together! A LOT MORE! So when the Hubs surprised me with this magnificent orchid this morning so say I was blown away is an understatement. 
I’m a words of affirmation girl but this is a gift I can totally appreciate. 
Happy Valentine’s Day!

  • When your air plants and air orchids are drenched by rain, the green shines through!

  • Finally a pretty bird with a bright orange beak is showing interest in our nesting log!

  • What an insane day! 3am wake up call to make a 6am flight and then it was back to back to back to back meetings and then a delayed flight home, arrived home at 21:45 and now I’m so tired that I’m not tired anymore! 
Heading to Club Duvet soon.

  • My heart is where my treasure lies! My heart lies here with my two miracle treasures: so very blessed.
  • Oh my heart! He was delicious then and he’s delicious now! My boy, my Kade Ethan, the defender of my faith.

  • In a blink of an eye, you are 5! 
Five is full of jokes, never stops talking, pushes every boundary and still hates pretty much every supper we put in front of you unless it is macaroni cheese or spaghetti bolognaise. Five has a thirst for knowledge.  Five is full of hugs and love and keeps us on our toes. 
Gemma Grace, our Hurricane, you changed our lives for the better (and added a few grey hairs to our heads) and we love you so very much! 
Happy 5th birthday #HurricaneGemma! You’re amazing.
