Here we go with another Friday Five! Of course, this is the Saturday edition because I was super tired of the computer on Friday. Hee, hee!
1. I must say that I am so incredibly thankful for OhLife. Remember I told you about it last week? Well, I just typed “1.” and sat here for a good 3 minutes trying to think of something to start my list off with. WHAT did I do this week? Am I really that boring? Then, I remembered that I could go back to OhLife …

I’m so excited that I actually scrapped for myself! Here it is: the first layout of 2012. Hopefully, it will be the first of many. MAN, I missed scrapping!

Ah, it is SO nice to be back on my blog! Honestly, we have been doing GREAT around here, but blogging took a major backseat as I spent more time with my family during the holidays. Now that my kids are back in school, I will endeavor to do a better job with my blogging! I thought the easiest way for me to jump back in was to give you my Friday Five!
1. In 2012, I am going to Work Smarter, Not Harder! Let me explain: There are some things …

I do realize it has been almost two months since I last posted here. If you follow me on Facebook, then you know that I HAVE been around and busy and enjoying my family!! I hope to get back to blogging regularly . . . starting today!
Yesterday, I was thinking about 2011, otherwise known as the year that flew by, and decided I’d do a super-quick recap just to record that SOMETHING(S) happened, even though I don’t have many digital layouts to show for it. It’s sad when I go …

Couponers NEVER pay for toothpaste, and you don’t have to either! This week, Rite Aid has toothpaste (even the fancy stuff) FREE after +UP rewards, and you don’t even need any coupons to do the deal!
First off, I had a $10 +UP reward that expired on Saturday! ARGH! I hate it when I flake out like that! SO, I was going to roll that reward, but it turns out that I still had a great Rite Aid trip even without that $10 to start with.
This is what I picked up:

I just got back from one of the LONGEST Safeway trips ever. I spent almost an hour pushing an uncooperative cart through the aisles on an incredibly busy Sunday night. I’m sure 30 minutes of the trip was just standing at the checkout line!! Never again. However, I had put it off for too long and one of my awesome coupons was set to expire today! I just HAD go!!
At least I didn’t have the kids with me, right?
I realize it has been a very long time since I have …

It’s Digital Scrapbooking Day, people!! What does that mean? HUGE sales, TONS of freebies, LOTS of inspiration and FUN challenges!!
I’m super, incredibly excited about the awesome Facebook Page Hop the Digichick designers are having this year. There are twenty-four designers participating, which means twenty-four FREEBIES!! PLUS, we all used a common palette, so most of the freebies will match one another! In the end, it will be like collecting a big collaboration (with a couple of random bits of goodness thrown in there for good measure!).
This is my Freebie!! I’m …

I am so excited to be moving into the holiday season! I love Thanksgiving (oh, the FOOD!) and Christmas is my favorite.
I have a dream that one day I will be the kind of mom who has a decorating bin for each season of the year: Snowflakes and snowmen for January and February, shamrocks and leprechauns for March, flowers and bunnies for April and May, etc.
I am not that mom. However, I really would love to be that mom.
I have a ton of great ideas! Really, I do!
The problem lies …

Okay, so here’s the deal: It has been nearly a month since I posted anything, and before that it was just grocery store scores. Yes, those can be exciting, but there is nothing more exciting than LIFE around the Ratzlaff house. I’ve been so overwhelmed at the thought of jumping in here to update you all and start to blog more regularly that I just kind of froze up.
Well, no more. This silent treatment has GOT to come to an end. I’m going nuts.
My life in bullet points. (Hopefully …
