4th of July Recap-

There was some disappointment this evening as our fireworks were cancelled due to wind.  Not sure if they will be rescheduled or not.  I am thankful that we went and watched fireworks on Saturday and Sunday.  :)  


The day went well, we invited the youth group over for a BBQ and even though the event became an indoor event due to the extreme hot temps and humidity.  So glad we have a basement!!!  WHOO HOO


We did have one scare today!  I had to make my first poison control phone call.  I let the kids and youth group have some glow sticks and I must have gotten a bad pack because mine broke and then a little bit later my lil man's broke and it squirted him in his eye!!  Talk about freak out!!!  I felt terrible as I started running to the bathroom to find the water fountains since we were at a park.  He could not open his eyes.  I quickly flushed his eyes out and I'm sure my husband was praying as I was taking care of him.  After I flushed it I called poison control and they recommend flushing for a good 15 minutes so we left the park and I put lil man in the shower.  He seemed fine but that was scary!  


How did your 4th of July go??  I hope no phone calls like mine!


I had a big laugh when I looked back at last years 4th of July post.  Go look at my cute kids:  Happy 4th of July 2011!

Usually, they are rather straightforward, but that doesn’t mean that they are entirely foolproof. Here, we’re going to look at some common issues that can lead to disputes or delays in carrying out your will. Image - CC0 License Not Having It Witnessed Correctly One of the most common mistakes when writing a will is not having it witnessed correctly. Wills generally require the signatures of at least two witnesses who are not beneficiaries or spouses of beneficiaries. If the will is not witnessed in accordance with legal requirements, it may be declared invalid, meaning your estate would be distributed according to intestacy laws, which may not align with your wishes. It’s important to follow the witnessing procedures exactly as outlined in your jurisdiction to ensure the will is legally enforceable. Chan...

Win some Sweet Andy's Cookies

A big thank you to Andy who sent me some amazing cookies to try to conduct my review.  :)  All opinions expressed are 100 % mine and I was not paid for this review.   About Sweet Andy's Cookies: The “Thank You” Cookie In 2009, Andrew (Sweet Andy) found himself in a position like so many others at that time in our past; the economy was quickly spiraling downward and he had left his job in the financial services industry. Although Andy had an MBA in Banking and Finance and had even written a book entitled, “A Guide to Taking Control of Your Investments”, he found himself to be disenchanted with the financial industry and left to pursue “other work.”  The “other work” that Andrew pursued was with the Church and did not provide financial support for the family.  During this time Andy and his wife, Lissa, struggled to find other forms of income. They did what they could for themselves and their five children but often it was not enough. But there were...
