4 Reasons I Take My Kids to Work

Well if you don't already know, Take Your Child to Work Day is next week.  I had completely forgotten about this concept until I got married, and my husband's daughters went with their mom to work.  Now that my oldest daughter is 8, she gets to participate as well.  Right now I'm working on a schedule for her day at home as well as a questionnaire that will help her get the most out of her day with me. I've seen a lot of opinions for and against Take Your Child to Work Day.  If you're against it, fine.  If…

Work-in-Progress Wednesday: Photo Editing

This week I've been working on a lot of photo editing as I try to get back into the swing of things.  I took over 600 photos in March, so there certainly has been no lack of work for the past few days.  Between the end of basketball, the beginning of softball, birthdays, and Easter, there was no shortage of photo opportunities.  I also had the privilege of taking my niece's 2-year photos.  If I can get permission from my sister-in-law I'll post my favorite photo taken of her this weekend. Photography is by no means my primary occupation.  I…

The Goings On

I am a bit ashamed to look back on my productivity for the month of March only to see very little.  I've been quite absent for a number of reasons, but I am hoping to get back into the swing of things during the month of April.

Behind the Scenes

I know things have been a bit slow around here lately.  It may seem like I'm taking some time off from the blog, but no worries!  I am working on a lot of administrative behind-the-scenes stuff, trying improve my site overall, trying to get myself noticed on Google, and doing some research to make sure Making the Most is the best blog it can be. We also celebrated Rapunzel's 8th birthday this weekend, and boy do I need some recuperating from that.  Four girls ages 8 and under running around our house sure is draining and makes for a wild…

Work-in-Progress Wednesday: The Blog

​This week I'm really making an effort to improve your blog experience.  You may have (or maybe not!) noticed that I have added, changed, and removed a few pages.  I spent a lot of time on this on Monday.  Hopefully your recipes and DIY items are easier to find now that I've made some changes. And as things go along, hopefully my design will come together for easy viewing. I'd love to have your feedback on the viewing process.  Are those of you with iTechnology still having issues?  Do you find the comment process easy?  Please feel free to comment…
