From Ca-NY, from 2011-2012, from smiles to tears... to high hopes!!!

New Years Eve in NY City, our 1st NYE in the NYC, lol.  As I had planned to initially be in Time Square for NYE 2011, we decided to spend it with the Family in Central Park.  The Midnight Run, both of our aunts were running in the race so the entire Family met up there to support.
It was an amazing thing to see Families running together, celebrating the new year, and most of all; it was amazing to be there with my babies, to "shoo-away" the old yucky year that did us so wrong...


As the year 2011 drew to a close, I hugged my tween daughter extra tight, midnight hit and the fireworks in NYC hit in full effect

Videos that make you go "WOW!"

So, many times I see videos that make me go "WOW!" and I feel bad because I don't want to send a mass e-mail to everyone, but would like to share; SO...

Now I decided I will just randomly post these and see if they make you say "WOW!" as well ;)

Here's the 1st one I HAVE to share, goes to show you never know what's lurking in the waters around you...

I have a very active 11 year old daughter, she is in every sports team she can get herself into.

How to stretch $100 for 4 kids' clothes... #luvcookies

It's no surprise that the prices for kid's clothing are as high as gold right now; and when you have more than 1 child, it just becomes a bit too much right? 
Well having 6+ kids ourselves and our income being extremely limited, it was very hard to get the kids new school clothes last month.  They all had to settle for one new outfit each, good thing they are used to budgets because it was not a battle.

Since moving to NY I had been sticking to the generic superstore to find quick and affordable clothing items as I could afford them. 

WELL, let me tell you...

NO MORE!!! ;)

They even had racks on the sidewalk!!!
