Valentine's Gift


My husband surprised me for Valentine's Day by telling me that he rented a cabin at Massanutten Resort: A Four Season Resort located in the beautiful Shenandoah Valley of Virginia. This will be our first family vacation and I can't wait. Four days of skiing, snowboarding, and snowtubing. I've never done either three, but I'm excited to try.


I looked at the Massanutten Resort website and I was surprised that it is not just a resort for skiiing. During summer, you can golf and go to the waterpark. I'll let you all know how it turned out. If you want more information, go visit their website http://www.massresort.com/.

I'm addicted to boots ...


My husband thinks that all boots are the same. He laughs when I ask which boots go better with my outfit. He thinks it ridiculous how many boots that I own. Today, I found these really cute ankle boots at the mall. I've been wanting a pair for awhile. AND GUESS WHAT ??? I paid less than $10 for them at Macy's. I LOVE A GREAT DEAL !!!!

Happy Valentine's Day !!!


Snow Day !!!




It has finally snowed here in VA ! It was about an inch, but it stayed on the ground. I was surprised and excited to see it-- and couldn't wait to show it to me 10-month-old son ! He was intrigued by it, but cried about how cold it was when it touched his hand. I tried to sit him in his car so that I could take his picture, but he kept trying to climb out. For his first taste of snow, we built a little snowman just for him. Not very good =)

All this for $250....

















I love this time of year because there is so much on sale for children's clothes. Since they go through their clothes so quickly, I don't think that you should spend so much money on an outfit.

Toys R Us, Babies R Us, Old Navy, Macy's, Target & JC Penney have such great deals.


When I found out that I was pregnant, I couldn't wait to start buying clothes. Before my son was even born, he already had a year supply of toys, onesies, outfits-- and 8 pairs of shoes !!! This year, I did even better. For a little over $250, I got another years supply of clothes and toys. The most I spent for an item was $3.50 -- and that was for a whole set (shirt & pants). Can you believe for that suit, I paid $1.97 !!! ***Not pictured are the toys that I bought. For my son's 1st birthday coming up, I purchased from Target's toy sale a Spiderman car, a Dora/Diego Aquadoodle set, and a Fisher Price train set, and a Fisher Price ball popper for

$20. ***

I'm glad this year that my cousin got to come with me and experience all these great deals. I can't wait till next years sales again !!!
