Life as a Yowler

Brandon’s store training today was in West Monroe, so we all tagged along and went to the Duck Commander attractions. We went to the warehouse. Here is the famous sign featured in the beginning of each show. We walked around the store and picked out some souvenirs. We were really hoping to meet someone from…

Not the most eventful day today, but I’m not complaining. We are still in our moble home. The RV will be fixed by the end of the day tomorrow. They figured out the problem for all three issues. The kids and I had a playground and pool day. Joah and Brielle were determined to go…

Overall everything has gone very smoothly on this trip until today. Our RV battery quit working which powers things while we drive down the road. The water pump also has given out and we barely have water pressure driving down the road. The really major problem though is our slide out. The entire side of…

The Haverteys sales associates told Brandon he had to take his family to the stockyards before we leave Texas. I’m so glad they did. Everyone loved it. I was so exhausted last night when we got back, I lost my cell phone. After a search of the RV I  found it…..in Isla’s sleep swaddler. No…

I would like to make it known that Joah did not nap yesterday. He cuddled on me about 15 minutes then was ready to go. He was awake from 3:30am-8pm. That kid could fight sleep professionally. He would win every award there is. I had to clean up messes all night, and the least he…

We managed to make it through the entire Michigan Winter without any sickness. Last night at 3:30am I had a dream that I was coughing. It turned into gagging. Then I heard “oh mom. I just accidentally puked everywhere!” Oh man. Guess it wasn’t a dream after all. It was poor little Joah. It was…

There are few things that motivate me to wake up, dress, feed, and load four kids by 7am. Magnolia Market is one of them. This morning we went with Brandon to his store training in Waco. We are camping in Dallas for a few days while Brandon drives around and does different trainings in different…

After our fun but exhausting day in San Antonio, we decided to take it easy and hang around the campground yesterday. We rode bike and played at the playground. I took the older two kids to the park while the younger two napped. They had fun throwing rocks in the water. It was another beautiful…

We had a parenting win yesterday….we survived an afternoon and evening in downtown San Antonio. We even had a ton of fun. The kids did very well overall. Everything went relatively smooth except one thing……steps……so so many steps. This wouldn’t have been a big deal, but we had two double strollers. By the end of…

Brandon had three store trainings this weekend, two on Saturday and one on Sunday. This morning(Sunday morning) he took Brielle with him. One on one, our kids usually behave really well. I sent along a sticker book and Brandon said she behaved like an angel. She was quiet the whole time Brandon did the training.…
