The Journey of Life

Life is a journey...and it wasn't until I had children that it really became interesting! These are the most meaningful, adventurous , and active years I've known, and I wouldn't trade them for anything. The Munchkins and Me is a place to share with you ideas and inspirations I've found to strengthen relationships with your children, as well as commemorate my journey and spread a little fun along the way! Welcome...and enjoy your stay!

The Desert Blooms!


It's strange that it's almost November, we just planted some flower seeds a few weeks ago, and low and behold, those little seeds are now flowering! The desert does bloom, even in late fall! In fact, it appears that early fall is the best time to plant a garden! I am thankful for the continuing warm weather and the opportunity to enjoy some brilliant color among the dust!

I attempted to plant a container vegetable garden this past February, when the weather had already begun to warm up, but the winds and burning sun all spring and summer were harsh. I harvested one green bean the size of my pinky, and a cucumber the size of my thumb! But, this beautiful flower is my gardening glory for the season!
