My son was baptised this week, in a lovely and meaningful ceremony with our closest family and friends. He got his first “hair cut” when the priest cut some strands of his long hair as an offering to God, and he received communion for the first time. I’m so proud of my little guy! Proud […]

Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful. Congratulations — I know how wonderful that sacrament is to witness for your child. My father baptized of our children and it was so special.
By the way, I didn’t know you were Greek! The Greek Orthodox church in Houston helps with the huge Greek festival every year. That church is absolutely beautiful — they give tours during the festival, explain Church history, etc. It was fascinating.

First off, Congratulations! If I didn’t know better, I’d guess the photos were taken in the 60s… they just have that feel to them. I love ’em!
-
Beautiful. You are a very blessed lady, but I’m sure you already know it.

Thank you Theresa, my boys are my world 🙂

Thank you, love 🙂
-
I do, I know it every day… There is nothing better than having a happy, healthy family 🙂
-
That is pretty cool…maybe the filter gives it a retro look?
-
It can be stressfull too (they fully immerse the baby three times) but it’s special and a happy day nonetheless 🙂
-
I can’t think of anything more special than grandpa baptizing the children…that is incredible!
We actually have our festival next week, and hubby will be volunteering every day. I can’t wait, I love the food and pastries!
-
Aww, thanks! It was a special day for us 🙂
-
You family is so beautiful! you have every reason to be proud of your children.

So true, with smart phones and iPads as much a part of our wardrobe as say, our shoes, it’s becoming just as important to integrate fashionable accessories with them, too!

I’ll have to check out more about this project runway project, I have never actually watched it. LOL!

Love this concept! I’m having fun playing with fashion this fall.

My daughter would love to design online.

Wait a second. There are air bags for cyclists? Whoa.I saw Mondo’s bag on the show the other day!

This post brought to you by Buffalo Wild Wings. All opinions are 100% mine. Football season is back, and football “widows” know this means that if you want to see your husband, you’ll visit him at his new home- parked in front of the TV. Of course there is an alternative, and that is joining […]
-
I’d enjoy the games on a Sunday afternoon with my husband with great wings and some drinks.
-
Sorry, I forgot my email: wbailey113 at hotmail dot com
-
OMG a great idea…My husband took me there and he said that maybe we should go there when the FB season starts….I would enjoy it with him and my daughter, they had soooo many TV”S there

It’s always a party when you’re watching football in a big group. It would be a blast to see a game at B_Dubs (love that name!); much more fun than even going to the stadium if you ask me!
-
I would send my husband and son in law the B-dubs and stay home and read a book
-
We would love to use this to enjoy an ‘adult night’! Wings taste better with football! 🙂

Good food, friends, and family put the festivities into football season! Having a venue that supports all those things (BWW!) makes it even better!
-
I would take my husband and kids to Buffalo Wild Wings to enjoy some wings together.

-
Just by eating good food and enjpying the game!
Sweetannec@aol.com -
I actually only like the food of game days. We like B-dubs because we can all get varying degree of heat on our food.
-
I would enjoy football season with cold drinks, a few side dishes like deviled eggs, B_Dubs and watching the game on a big HD tv!

-
After having experienced game day at bdub’s we’d eat early to avoid the madness – but still enjoy the wings!
monique.burkes@gmail.comThanks!
-
We would go to Buffalo Wild Wings and watch a Virginia Tech football game over some good wings!

I would enjoy the football games at B-Dubs watching on one of their giant TV’s, drinking ice cold beer and eating their delicious wings!

I would enjoy football season with boneless wings.

We’d enjoy a Sunday Vikings game amidst a pile of boneless wings! Yum!

Starbucks is synonymous with refreshing for most people. Their beverages refresh, refuel, and re-energize us as we go about our busy days, and they taste pretty darned awesome. I’m a person who basically lives on caffeine, so coffee is my beverage of choice, especially in the morning when I start my day. I always felt […]
-
I keep reading rave reviews. I’ll have to pick some up next time I’m out.
-
So excited these come in a can now! I love them at Starbucks but I’ll be happy when I can already have them in the home now!
-
I’m not a fan of any energy drink however after reading reviews I may have to pick up the raspberry pomegranate and give it a try. Hubby is a big fan of Starbucks Double Shots!
-
These look good. I’d like to try the Raspberry Pomegranate.
-
I have been hearing a lot about these Starbucks refreshers lately! I just saw them at the Starbucks in my airport and some lady was raving about how great they were 🙂
-
Looks good, I want to try the Strawberry lemonade! I have read some great reviews so far.
-
I want to try them all! 🙂
-
These sound incredible I must try them!!
-
I liked the melon one the best, but the pomegranate was my second favorite!
-
I would love to try these! I am a fan of energy drinks, but haven’t seen these yet.
-
I keep hearing about these. I need to try ’em.
-
these look so tasty I would luv to try strawberry lemonade and I have a gift card tooo that makes it even better
-
I’ve seen these. Wondered how they tasted.
-
I love these!



Although I am fortunate enough to have never experienced an issue of hunger, it is a cause I am VERY passionate about. Since we live in the richest country in the world, there shouldn’t even be a single person hungry, period! I am glad that a big corporation like Walmart is helping to give back to those in need.
I’m happy to see Walmart is helping to fight hunger.
This is a great program they are doing and I love that they have made it so simple to participate and help those in need.
so easy to give back and such a great cause. We certainly know what it was like growing up hungry my mom had to go to extreme measures to get us food at times and I’m grateful for every meal I can put on the table
I am glad to hear that they are helping give back!
What a great initiative!
This is a great initiative!
What a great campaign Walmart is involved with, will check it out and contribute!
That’s a fantastic program
Very happy to hear about this program!
I love hearing that Walmart is trying to do something positive and give back!
It’s awesome to see Walmart champion such an important cause. No one should go to bed hungry.
Glad to hear that Walmart is a part of this great program!
so good to give back
I am so happy that they are doing this!
This is a great cause. And the way the economy is right now? Many people need the help!
I love to hear about huge corporations helping out. Thanks for sharing.
What a great thing Walmart is doing!
It just breaks my heart so many are without meals. This should not be happening. I’m glad there is an easy way we can all help out
This is great!
what a great cause. I love that Walmart is fighting against hunger
Great cause. Some of my grandparents experienced hunger too as children during the Depression.
Kudos to Walmart! This is such a great program!
This is such a great cause! I love that they are doing this.
