The Cupcake Wars Are Over

By On June 2, 2011 · 1 Comment

I know. I didn’t blog much last month. My siblings are in an uproar about it. But really, I’ve got a good excuse. Several, in fact. Listening?

On May 12th, I bought a house. (You already knew this.) Then I headed to Huntington Beach, California for a Midsingles Conference.  Where I [...]

Happy Birthday To My House

By On May 12, 2011 · 2 Comments

I bought a house today! Yes, I really did it. You haven’t heard anything about it because I was so afraid I’d jinx it. We can all breathe now – it’s DONE. It’s also why I’ve been so quiet this month… I wanted to blog, but I was worried that once I started, [...]

Do You Have A Favorite Child?

By On April 27, 2011 · Leave a Comment

My dad does. It’s me. As long as I don’t tell the others. Oops.

I had the GQ Romeo with me this weekend. (That’s Wade, if you’ve forgotten.) I’d call it a mini-vacation, but that might be stretching it… I had him slaving at my office [...]

A Happy Beginning

By On April 14, 2011 · 2 Comments

You know, most fairy tales I’ve heard end with “And they all lived happily ever after. The End.” What kind of garbage is that?!? It’s that happily ever after part of things that’s really the start of everything fun. Alisha and Mike Tompkins had their happy beginning on Tuesday in the [...]

Dad Got Jiggy With It

By On April 10, 2011 · 1 Comment

I hereby retract any statements I may have made about Dad’s dancing abilities (or lack thereof). On pain of death and disinheritance, I’m going to show you the video – just call me fearless. I figure with 8 kids, the odds are good he’ll forget it was me. (Dad, if [...]

A Special Message From Cassandra

By On April 7, 2011 · Leave a Comment

Well guys, tomorrow the wedding madness begins. Or, more accurately, starts coming to a grand conclusion. Sort of. I mean, we’re stretching this all the way until May 28th…. so maybe I should stick with “begins.” However, in the calm before the storm, Cassie specifically asked if [...]

Reece Is Getting Married

By On April 1, 2011 · 1 Comment

It must be something in that Cameron water, because the Cowboy Casanova is hanging up his hat. Sorry all you single ladies - he’s found his one and only. We’re calling her the Older Woman because well, that’s what she is. (Logan calls her Reece’s [...]

Sometimes I Wake Up With Jack Ingram

By On March 30, 2011 · Leave a Comment

That sounds a lot more provocative than it actually is. Sure, normally he’s talking directly in my ears. And it always makes me hot. But it’s not what you think. Be real. My mother reads this blog.

It makes a lot more sense when you realize I’ve recently started using the

Don’t Blink. Seriously.

By On March 27, 2011 · 5 Comments

You might miss something. Something big. Especially if you blink at our house. You know that song by Kenny Chesney? I think we move even faster. JESSIE IS GETTING MARRIED! You’ve heard of her boyfriend (now fiance!) before - he’s not nickname-protected, but if he was, I think [...]

The Best Day Ever

By On March 25, 2011 · 1 Comment

Took two weeks to write about. Yeah, I’ve been that busy. Haven’t you heard? There are weddings going on around here! And work. And more work. However, that doesn’t mean that I have forgotten one of the best parts of my life, which is: I. Am. A. Big. Sister. No, [...]
