I’m a wife and mom of two daughters. My daughters are 12 years apart so that keeps me quite busy and a little crazy at times. My life is a jumble of mixed up mishaps, but it’s always centered around my family.
MommyFest Blog Party
May 16th, 2008 by Connie RobertsI’m ready to party are you?
First my intro. (Hope it doesn’t bore you to tears.):
I’m the mom of two daughters, Peanut who is 9 years old and Lady Ali who is 21. Peanut is in third grade and loves to read, play video games and go to church. Lady Ali just got engaged and moved to Kansas to attend Graduate School. She’ll be majoring in Library Science. I’m 45 and have been married to Hubby for 11 years. He’s the most awesome man I know. He works as a Mail Carrier. and is medically retired from the Army National Guard. We are committed to each other and our family.
I love blogging! I’ve met lots of great people this way. I like to read, watch some TV, especially Lost, American Idol and movies on the Sundance Channel. I’m a Christian and am very active in my church. I also volunteer at Peanut’s school when I can. I do have multiple chronic illnesses which are autoimmune in nature so I have to be careful about taking care of myself.
I thought I’d post one of my fav videos about moms and some links to games for you and your children to play.
Here’s the video. The singer is the comedian Anita Renfroe. Warning: if you have bladder control issues, do something NOW!
Here’s some links to games when you hear those words we all dread….”I’m bored”. Actually it’s more like, “I’m boooored”.
The Kids Page has all kinds of word games, puzzles and coloring pages.
Family Fun has games for Moms and children. You do have to download them for a free trial. So I guess you’d have to pay to play. Oh well.
Shockwave has free online games of all types.
And of course there’s Facebook where you can carried away with Scrabulous and other games too. These are for just us Moms or older teens. If you’d like to join me on Facebook, this is my profile
I sure hope you’re gonna leave some comments and tell me if you liked my party! Take a look at the Sticky at the top of my blog too because I’ll be running a contest you may like. I’ll be visiting other MommyFest Party blogs so I’ll see you around!.

Also I saw Anita perform at Women of Faith two years in a row and love her. She’s there this year, also, but I won’t be there.

Hi – I’m so glad you stopped by my blog!! I’m even happier you became a member of my site! I was excited to enter your contest, but I ended up not doing it only because my blog is w/ blogger and not wordpress and you said the makeover was for wordpress. I’m sorry! But I’m so glad to meet you and am enjoying reading your blog!

Thank you so much for stopping by my blog and for the wonderful comment! I am a bit busy – sometimes more than others depending on the kids’ schedules!
It’s great to hear about your ministry for single moms! Sadly, there are so many of us and we just get lost in the cracks! Im always thrilled to hear of churches that embrace us!
I’m not the best blog-hopper, but I will certainly add you to favorites and try to get back often!
Enjoy the party and have a great weekend! (((hugs)))
