The Spears Family Blog: The Quote Wall.
http://sonnetcentral.blogspot.com/2014/09/quoted.html
Tuesday, September 23, 2014. I really like to read. I really love words. And I am very inspired by a well-turned phrase. I also have very strong beliefs about what I think is important in life and what I want my kids to know. And I have this big wall that needed some décor. But since it is located in the main thoroughfare of the house and across from the "playroom," I didn't want to put anything too fragile or foofy on it. (Yes, foofy is a word in my world). I chose quotes from my favorite writers, speak...

He said "I wuv them and I'm never taking them off! I painted the inside of my pantry aqua. just because! All day. Every day. 3 grandkids for my parents! My dad in a place my dad belongs. :). Holding a sleeping baby is one of the best things in the world! Tried a new curling iron. Haha. A cute dog in his cute house.

The Spears Family Blog: The Brick Wall.
http://sonnetcentral.blogspot.com/2014/10/the-brick-wall.html
Tuesday, October 21, 2014. After we worked on our house for a. Month, I swore I would wait a long, long time before I painted anything again. (I hate painting! Hate it.) But then I got this bright idea to do an accent wall in my family room. Dun dun dun. I love brick. Love it! So, I figured it would be an awesome spot for a faux exposed brick wall. Like. Hey, check this out, we ripped the drywall off and look what we found! This amazing 100 year old brick just waiting to be reclaimed! I wanted the grout ...

The Spears Family Blog: House Tour (Upstairs).
http://sonnetcentral.blogspot.com/2015/02/house-tour-upstairs.html
Tuesday, February 17, 2015. Someone reminded me that I never did a house tour of the upstairs. I know, I know, it's so thrilling. I'm sure you've all been waiting for just such a thing with bated breath. I do happen to know that at least one person is interested, so I got off my behind and took some pictures today (not that I take. Pictures, but you get the idea). (If you missed the downstairs tour, click here. It used to look like this before:. Now it looks like this:. This is what it looks like now:.

The Spears Family Blog: Beach Babies!
http://sonnetcentral.blogspot.com/2015/07/beach-babies.html
Monday, July 6, 2015. We took a family vacation to Newport Beach last week. We drove straight to the water, set up our shade and chairs, and just played, lounged, and ate junk food for three days. :) It was lovely! Sonnet took up boogie boarding and had a blast (she now says she wants to be a surfer and an artist when she grows up, so it's safe to say she will be homeless and broke, but happy- haha!

Friday, February 27, 2015. We went out to Logandale Trails to ride horses and have a campfire with my dad and his buddies. The kids loooooooved it! It was so nice to get out of town and get some fresh air. :). Monday, February 23, 2015. We go to the St. George Parade of Homes every year. The kids are so good. they love staying at the hotel and picking "their rooms" in all the houses. Nate and I love to discuss all the houses and go out to eat! It's a fun family tradition.

The Spears Family Blog: CCC!
http://sonnetcentral.blogspot.com/2015/08/ccc.html
Tuesday, August 4, 2015. I'm told that today is "national chocolate chip day." I don't know if there's even such a thing, but I'm all for the idea, so I'm assuming it's true. :) In honor of this special occasion, I shall share a couple of my favorite chocolate chip cookie recipes! The cookies are big, fat, chocolaty things and they taste super yum! Even someone like me only needs 2 or 3 of them to feel really satisfied. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

The Spears Family Blog: December 2014
http://sonnetcentral.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html
Wednesday, December 31, 2014. I try to read somewhere around 50 books a year. This year I read 46, plus the 18 chapter books I read with Sonnet (hey, every bit counts- haha). I listed my reads below and commented when I felt like it. :). A wee bit corny, but really clean and cute. The Girl You Left Behind. A wee bit corny for me, but I suppose I always say that about Regency period stuff. Most women I know who have read this really liked it. I think there are a couple more in the series too. True story&#...

The Spears Family Blog: House Tour (downstairs).
http://sonnetcentral.blogspot.com/2014/09/house-tour-downstairs.html
Wednesday, September 3, 2014. We bought a house! Read some about that. Then we worked (and worked and worked) on the house! Read some about that here. Then we finally got a good night's sleep. Now I can get back to things that really matter like blogging and eating ice cream. :). Anyone who’s been in ear shot of me over the last year knows that house hunting was not a fun process for us, but we finally landed on a place that we really liked! Short sales are not short! You put on a coffee table? Working o...
