Smexy’s Top Ten–June 3rd

That’s not cool mother nature. Take it back.   9. One of my fav authors, Marie Sexton had a book come out this week! Between Sinners and Saints is a somewhat heavy book that deals with Levi, who is out to his Mormon family, but not accepted (and is quite the playboy.) And Jamie, who was Continue Reading

And of course the kids eyes cleared up in like five minutes. Hubs took the eye drops and then had an allergic reaction to the medication and woke up the next day with both of his eyes swollen shut. I got cocky (yes, I said “cocky”) after the first day and didn’t keep up with the drops so now I have it again, and it won’t go away. Seriously Continue Reading
