One of the ways we planned to save money was to make our own flowers for the wedding. Irish Girl used to babysit for a florist and would help out during prom season so she volunteered to head up the flower-making. All Princess and I had to do was choose…
College Boy and Irish Girl grew up with kitties in their homes, so soon after they were married and in their own home they wanted to get a kitten. College Boy searched online and found Loki in a shelter. It was love at first sight! At first Loki was too…
First off, this is not a post about Prince, his song just popped in my head when I was trying to think of a title. But don’t go away yet! I have a little something for Prince fans so you won’t be totally disappointed: I was a huge Prince fan…
OK, I lied – I’ll give you a little peek… As you probably know, we’re planning a wedding here. If you know anything about weddings you’ll know that one of the most important things – to the bride at least – is what she and the wedding party are going…
Princess knew exactly what kind of wedding veil she wanted. She wanted a simple veil in off-white or ivory to go with her ivory dress. Shoulder-length, with a plain cut edge; no lace, serging, or anything. Most of all, she wanted a tiara. The tiara was easy to find.…

Z-Man and Little Guy love celery, thanks to the Wonder Pets, who munch celery at the end of every episode. Z-Man and Little Guy also love Ants on a Log, thanks to the Noggin segment that taught them how to make it themselves. But what do you do when your…
When Teacher and I were married I ordered a unity candle from the local wedding shop. I don’t know why we didn’t make it ourselves; maybe we were too busy to think of it, or because back then handcrafted just “wasn’t done.” Times have changed, and not only is a…
I am mortified. Embarrassed. Ashamed. And other words I can’t think of now. I just discovered that I’ve been irresponsible. Careless. Negligent. This afternoon I set up a Facebook Page for My Happy Crazy Life. Then I decided to set up an email account through myhappylife.com, and discovered that there…
