So, this is your first time visiting my blog, eh? Well, thanks for stopping by! I hope you found what you were looking for.

Since it is your first time, let me tell you a little about my blog. I write about my life as a work at home mom of twins who lives in Georgia. On the blog you will find recipes, menu plans, tales about memorable events in our lives, tips that work for us, craft projects, activities around Atlanta, and sometimes a few of my political thoughts as a volunteer turned political consultant.

My husband is affectionately referred to as Mr. Right because he is right for me, keeps God in the right place in his heart, and is politically right of center. We are college sweethearts and have been married for 16 years. Our children, BusyBoy and GigglyGirl, are 7 year old twins who will be in second grade soon. They were kindergarten in the same class.

Why don’t you go grab a Coke or an iced sweet tea and stick around for awhile? You can read some of the most popular posts and ones that I really enjoy.

Have you ever been to a blog party? This year was my first time. You can read JenuineJen’s Blog Party to learn more about the blog and just what a blog party is.

If you live in Georgia, you will probably like reading about the Fall Fairs and Festivals in Metro Atlanta and North Georgia and Christmas Activities in and around Atlanta. Speaking of Christmas, have you started planning yet? Christmas (Planning) in September tells how I am getting a jump start on my Christmas activities. Learn what Christmas was like through my children’s eyes last year.

Do you like to save money? In this tough economy, who doesn’t like pinching a few pennies? Learn how I Save More than 50% on Groceries for FREE!

Life as a mom of twins is sometimes fun, sometimes scary, sometimes overwhelming, sometimes touching, but always exciting. My children have real skill and talent in bowling. GigglyGirl a girl who absolutely loves pink. They have created their own version of the Food Network Challenge. What kind of pets do you have? GigglyGirl would love to have a Pet Lizard and Mr. Right does not like being licked by giraffes. BusyBoy knows how to scare birds and likes to think outside the fence box.

Occasionally, I have a few good tips to share with you. You can learn What My Twins Have Taught Me about Selecting the Best Toys for Babies, Toddlers, and Preschoolers. If you are at home a lot, you might really enjoy giving Twitter a try. Twitter is fun and addictive and truly makes the world seem small.

While I am not always as good about it as I’d like to be, I post Menu Plans on Mondays as often as I can. I have several recipes that my family enjoys and you might as well: Jen’s All Time Favorite BBQ Chicken, Menu Plan with Easy to Cook Recipes, Easy, Tasty Roast Beef, Blueberry French Toast with Blueberry Syrup, Freezer Friendly Recipes, Gingerbread Recipes.

    GigglyGirl?!? Oh, I love that nickname!

    Twins! I cannot imagine. When do you sleep and shower? Some days being a dog mom tries my patience – God Bless You!

    Thanks for stopping by my blog. Your comment is going to help buy some food for a hungry person.

    I will bookmark your blog and stop back again. I could use some tips about saving money and using Twitter.

    Newt needs to shut up along wit Rap Crap- hypocrite, liar and self centered hog that he is, you seem ot forget whose side he is on, cause he is wealthy enlough to be taxed, and doesnt feel he should be! awwwwww!

    OH, excuse me, the NEEDY

    I am interested in knowing exactly WHICH taxes you are protesting against. Obama’s tax plan CUTS taxes for everyone making less than $250K. I can only assume you make more than that, and don’t like helping folks who don’t. You are only doing what you are told, not bothering to learn the facts. I urge you to take a good look at those you follow. They are rich, they are white and they care nothing for anyone but themselves. They are feeding you a line and you are falling for it completely.

    Thanks for letting me comment. I know it won’t change anything, but it makes me feel just a bit better.

    Pete,

    Thanks for taking the time to comment on my blog. In the coming days (hopefully) I will be able to finish posting about the financial difficulty that my husband and I have had personally. Maybe you will check back to read it (assuming that I actually have time to sit down to edit it and post it). You will see from it that I am living by my principles.

    Thanks, again, for taking the time to comment.

    So you went from house cleaning to what is undoubtedly a well paying full time ocupation. Neat trick just jump on the bandwagon say what people want hear an voila money. It of course doesn’t matter that the tea party is hurting the middle class and lower income citizens. In order to continue your salary you have to maintain the message whether it hurts people or not!

    One thing that I have noticed is that there are a whole lot of earthquakes these days. Big ones too. So what does that have to do with anything? I found something that is just like that Easy Button that they advertise on TV for Staples. It’s a little known secret that is only shared by some top level Internet gurus. The fact is, that this software is 100% legal, “white hat” and ethical, that even giant enterprises use it. And the best part – it is really running on full autopilot. This super affiliate push button software is the real thing, so if you’re planning to use it unethically, or use it for scam purposes, this software isn’t for you! If you can spend no more than 3 minutes to download and setup this software, and then click the ‘Start Button’ just once to start this autopilot push button software… Then you can make money online. Basically what it does is bring a stream of free visitors to any website. You might be tempted to try to disect this software in order to ‘see the magic’ but why bother? It’s a pretty amazing piece of software and it just simply… works. Test it out -> http://tinyurl.com/pbcsites

    I want to send money to TPP instead of the GOP. However, the letter you sent me lists what has been done with the money donated so far:Pressure on republicans in congress, a tour of media staff, Held “deal in the district”, etc. All these projects have had no effect on how the tea party freshmen or congressmen voted on the debt ceiling. Its vey disappointing. It seems it doesn’t matter what we want or who we send to DC.

    BusyBoy and GigglyGirl, are those the real names of your kids? If so, then VH1 needs to feature them in their next installment of “Weirdest Celebrity Baby Names.”
