At home...a few changes.

as most you know i have been selling athome things for awhile now and doing parties for them in your homes. things have changed a little since athome america closed and was purchase with new owners. the changes are:

  • name-is just At home now
  • ordering- you can order anytime online at www.athome.com/jroberts 
  • product- although some things have remained the same, they have added new things to choose from. they will sell a bigger variety of products for your home. and if you liked the old products and want more they have some of those too.
  • the new company has flash sales that last a week or so and have really good deals.
just wanted to get the word out to those of you who have had interest in athome america and knew nothing of their closing changes.

i'm kind of digging their HALF PINT ICE CREAM MAKER. COMES IN A COOL PINK TOO.

today was a special day for my husband. he was reunited with a buddy of his from Iraq who was injured in his 4th tour overseas. after being in Iraq with my husband alex was then deployed to Afghanistan. he stepped on IED their and lost both of this legs. one below the knee, and one above the knee. he was walking on his new legs months after this happened. WHAT AN AMERICAN HERO!!!

pink (for awareness)

the cheer girls, football boys, and volleyball ladies all fashioned their pink for breast cancer awareness month.  they looked very cute too. and the boys very tough wearing pink:)
it's unbelievable the amount of people effected with or by breast cancer some how.
 
on a side note: we finally wrapped up brooke's volleyball season and brady's football season.
it was so much fun to watch them, but will enjoy some nights at home for awhile
(until basketball season that is)
 
very proud of my kids for doing their best in these sports.
