About Me

My photo
This blog is about what happens to a former newspaper photographer when she becomes a mama and moves home to raise her kids. I'm a wife to my best friend Michael who is a photographer for the Tulsa World. I am a mama to two beautiful girls who make me laugh every day. I was born and raised in Oklahoma and I think it's a wonderful place to raise our children. I was a newspaper photographer for 13 years before leaving to stay home with my girls. One of the best decisions I have ever made in my life. I am blessed with the ability to stay home with the girls mostly but also freelance photography some. Sometimes I can't believe I'm actually getting paid to do something that is so fun! I recently heard someone say "I spent my 20's thinking I knew everything and I have been spending my 30's proving myself wrong." I relate so much to that because I realized a while back that I spent my 20's thinking mostly about myself and my career and I have spent my 30's mostly thinking about our children and how I could stay home with them more and work less.

Beyond PB&J - Tulsa World

I posted this earlier and thought I'd repost today as some of us are back to trying to get inspired as we pack lunches again. Enjoy!

I clipped this article out of my very favorite newspaper, The Tulsa World, a couple years ago and hung it inside my pantry for those times when both me and the girls are bored with their lunch boxes. It has some great ideas for lunches.
Big sis has recently started packing her own lunch which was sort of a punishment for complaining about what I packed for her but turns out she really loves packing her own lunch and prefers to pack it herself. Next stop...she does her own laundry!!!
