Sunday traditions revisited

For as long as Kevin and I have been married,we have always used Sunday nights to pile in the bed and go through the Sunday paper. He always started with the funnies and me the sale ads and coupons. Sunday was always a grueling day since Kevin was in a major position at the church.

I always had a plan of attack for Monday- Weight Watchers meeting, Walmart, then usually out with Kevin and the girls. Now things are different since we've lived in Europe... No Weight Watchers meetings, definitely no Walmart, but we do have sale ads. They usually all arrive by Wednesday before the new sale starts on Thursday. Once again, our same tradition continues just on a different day and different country. Oh and BTW... We don't have coupons in Croatia. It's a good thing I didn't get good at the extreme couponing stuff.

Tonight I'm looking at ads on the iPad. Technology has come so far, what did we do back in simpler times?!?

Pinteresting?!

Yes please, and lots of it! ;).
I really don't know where this has been all my adult life...
Like while I was planning our wedding,
or before we had babies!

Seriously, there are so many cute things out there!
Everything from hair, to outfits, DIY, PRINTABLES,
and don't get me started on the plethora of ReCiPeS for everything.

Those Six Sisters sure have me drooling over their recipes.

I also don't know how the ladies of How Does She? find the time and creativity for all
the stuff they do.

It really is a time sucker... I usually go on PInterest to look up something and thirty minutes later
I'm still there.

I must admit that Pinterest has helped me tremendously while living in Croatia to find homemade versions of many things we love.

Oh yeah and I'm going to be in big trouble if it ever goes away....must make plans to preserve my most loved and used pins.

So tell me, what is your most favorite thing to "pin"?

Well, it's early Saturday morning in Virginia and we are catching up with my girls sweet friends and their momma. We can't wait to see them, they've been so missed while we were away. I'm praying we find good friends for our children who will be kind and true. This is my biggest heart ache living so far from those we love. Can't wait.;).

Night all!
