Save Your Marriage in Five Minutes a Day by: Bonnie Jacobson and Alexia Paul "Simple Strategies to Transform Your Relationship" Rating: 2 Stars Save Your Marriage in Five Minutes a Day is about quick (5 minute) methods of improving a relationship that can be used by anyone. By incorporating these small gestures into each day, one can make a great difference in their marriage. The book is broken into sections that addresses issues such as communication, children, physical and sexual relationships.  The Authors often include a possible dialogue for each technique they recommend. However, it seemed that the way it was worded was how you would speak to a child, not a spouse and I don't see the conversations happening in real life. In these "Say This" sections of the book, the spouse who is being confronted with something immediately agrees with what the other is saying and they 'ride off into the sunset, and live happily ever after

I recently received a copy of " 31 Days To Clean : Having a Martha House The Mary Way" e-book FREE! (Thank-you Sarah Mae!) I am enjoying the homemaker's challenge so far and thought I'd share my journey with you all! You see, I have always kept a clean house! After baby #1...... it was always clean. After baby #2...... it was getting more messy, but manageable. After baby #3 (add in homeschooling, piano lessons, speech therapy, a hobby farm, and a home business )....... I can't seem to keep my house clean, ever! And if and when (by chance with the hubby and kids help) it is CLEAN....no one ever stops by! But, some days - when there is laundry piled, dirty dishes, crumbs all over the floor, toys scattered in every direction, and you can't see the desk.... those are the days that folks magically 'stop in'! (Here's a dirty little secret..... the first two times our Pastor came to our house, I refused to let him in any further than the garage,

My 9 year old daughter has always loved taking pictures (something she gets from me....). However, this year she is really doing a great job at getting unique, good quality pictures!  I thought I'd share a few...... Dandelion's.....I personally have never thought of taking a picture of dandelions, but then, -they are the 'flowers' that mommas get the most bouquets of! I thought this single dandelion was so pretty! This whole picture shouts out...."A beautiful Spring Day!" Rocks, even they look good in a picture! OK, so I thought this picture was so cool! -she has always had a 'thing' for clouds! We love our sunsets! Yes, she wouldn't be herself with out her cats!  Crab Apple trees in bloom on the hill -(again with the clouds!) Phlox.... she may not like perennials the way I do, but she does enjoy taking pictures of them! And..... this is my absolute favorite!!!!!   ....my raspberries at night (-I may have to

We have three of the sweetest, Registered Nigerian Dwarf Dairy Goats ever!!! We have been wanting goats for a long time and decided on the Nigerian Dwarf Dairy breed for a lot of reasons. Their milk has a high butterfat content They are sweet, not trouble makers They are more like sheep (they want to be with you) I've even had one (Willow) follow me into the house! they are small, so they consume less feed, hay etc. they are light enough that I can pick up a full sized doe and hoist her over a 5 ft fence! they give a surprisingly large amount of milk for their small size Goat poo is one of the best fertilizers there are - it is not hot, so you can put it directly on/around plants they are multi-purpose (we plan to butcher the extra weathers for meat) and last, but not least.... they are just plain CUTE and so fun to watch!!!! So here they are: ~ Willow ~ -she's the boss! Willow is a 4 yr old doe and has a lovely coat! She loves to be brushed, but is more int

My First Ever Book Review!!!!! Max on Life: Answers and Inspiration for Today's Questions Rating: 4 Stars Max Lucado is no doubt one of the most popular non-fiction Christian writers of today! Recently, I have had the chance to review Max Lucado's new book, Max on Life - Answers and Inspiration for Today's Questions This book is kinda like a Q & A session in which Max Lucado gives the answers to some of the most important questions that Christians today have. If you have questions about God, salvation, faith, home, etc., and are searching for answers -you need to read this book! This is a great book that addresses some very important and very common questions that the Christians today might have.  The book is divided up in to a few main sections: Hope, Hurt, Help, Him/Her, Home, Haves/Have-Nots, and Hereafter. There are a variety of questions pertaining to that particular subject within the main sections. There is also a scripture index

I grew up in a large family. We lived in the country, grew and preserved our own food, sewed our own clothes, milked our cows, made our butter, cheese etc., raised animals and all the rest that goes with living on a country farm. While I've never enjoyed sewing....( my other sister's do though ),  I love to garden and can or freeze  ( I am wanting to try drying next ) most of my family's food! I love to look at all the shelves filled with canned goods, knowing I did my part in keeping our little family fed! I love working in my garden......    ..........but, I haven't always loved it! You see, my garden would always start out nice.... with long straight rows of veggies. I did a really good job ( with hubby's help ) at keeping it weeded too. It looked something like this; Then about the time that the plants started producing -the garden would get out of control! Overnight it turned into a great big patch of weeds!!! -sorry, no picture, (I never let my

Her house always smells so good and everyone feels welcome in her home! You can't go wrong with Pampered Chef!   Here is just a few of my favorite Pampered Chef Products that I use on a daily basis:       My newest Pampered Chef  products were a complete set of TPC Executive Cookware  ( both the 7 piece & 5 piece )!!!  -a Christmas gift from my wonderful husband!!! You see, we had bought a Teflon Pan set as a wedding gift, but after 5 yrs., the coating was coming off in our food and the handles were braking off. I absolutely LOVE my pan set!!! I show them to everyone who comes over for a meal! Some of the things I like about my TPC Executive Cookware : Hard-anodized aluminum reinforced with titanium for superior durability DuPont™ Autograph® 2 nonstick coating inside and out for effortless c

You know, these days you hear so much about 'Green' Living and keeping our earth clean! I am not a tree hugger and I don't necessarily believe in 'global warming'!!  However, with that being said, I do think it's important to take care of the earth and the things around us. God has given us these things and I believe its our job to take care of what he has blessed us with. We teach our children not to litter with their trash, we teach them to recycle plastic, glass and paper. We teach them to recycle motor oil, we teach them to not waste electricity, water or food. We tell them smoking is bad for their health and for those that breath the air around it.  There is a lot that we teach our kids about keeping our part of the earth clean!  Why then do we not teach them to use clean products in our homes! First of all the home is where we spend most of our time. But, it is also where we come into contact with the most hazardous materials. For more in

Above Rubies  posted the following on Facebook this past week: "I LOVE MOTHERHOOD! Every mother loves her children, but not every mother loves motherhood. This is the secret to entering into the joy of motherhood for which God created us. Motherhood is not something to run from as the liberalists advocate but to EMBRACE! Start off every day confessing out loud, I LOVE MOTHERHOOD. You will be amazed how this attitude will change your mothering and your whole household!" Which got me to thinking.... do I really love Motherhood??        I Love my kids and would do anything for them! I want them to be the best that they can be for God, so he can use them! I want them to succeed in life. I feel sad when they are sad or are hurting. I laugh when they laugh and rejoice when they are happy........... but do I really love motherhood?      Motherhood for me does not come natural. It is something I struggle with.  I hate doing dishes and keeping a clean house isn't on my
