Just For Fun and SOME GOOD NEWS

I found this on Lauren M's blog -- and thought I would try it. But then I thought about it and decided I had to enter two names because my name is technically Amanda but I often go by Mandy or Manda, so -- those of you who know me, you decide:

What Mandy Means

You are confident, self assured, and capable. You are not easily intimidated.

You master any and all skills easily. You don't have to work hard for what you want.

You make your life out to be exactly how you want it. And you'll knock down anyone who gets in your way!


You are usually the best at everything ... you strive for perfection.

You are confident, authoritative, and aggressive.

You have the classic "Type A" personality.


You are very intuitive and wise. You understand the world better than most people.

You also have a very active imagination. You often get carried away with your thoughts.

You are prone to a little paranoia and jealousy. You sometimes go overboard in interpreting signals.


You are balanced, orderly, and organized. You like your ducks in a row.

You are powerful and competent, especially in the workplace.

People can see you as stubborn and headstrong. You definitely have a dominant personality.


You are a free spirit, and you resent anyone who tries to fence you in.

You are unpredictable, adventurous, and always a little surprising.

You may miss out by not settling down, but you're too busy having fun to care.

In hindsight, they both are VERY similar -- so I guess I am just me, and honestly, I think it is quite accurate. I *might* be a bit stubborn *giggles*

The good news of today is that my son is officially potty trained. On our trip to California and Disney, we had no accidents -- DS wore undies the whole trip! It feels so good to be done with diapers -- well at least until/if or when we get pregnant and have more . . . YAY!

QUESTION FOR ALL YOU READERS: We are working on figuring out a family reunion and I would like to know where you have had yours in the past, what are your favorite family reunion memories and what you like to do at a reunion?? Hoping you all have answers that will help me out! Thanks in advance for your input!

My husband has 5 brothers and sisters and they're all in different states - so every 2 years someone hosts the reunion and picks a place. We've gone camping in Colorado, stayed in a ski resort in Pennsylvania (cheap in the summer), rented a cabin in Branson, MO (a great place because of all the fun things to do), rented beach houses in Galveston, Tx, and most recently, took over a Bed and Breakfast in Taos, New Mexico. The host makes little gift packages for everyone (maybe a hat or t-shirt with the family name) meal assignments and lets everyone know what activities are available. I've loved them all, but really, we've learned that it's not so important to have lots of activities - we just enjoy being with each other. Have a great time.

my husbands family has a huge one in california because 80% of them live there. each year it is hosted by a different son/daughters family. everyone brings either a salad, desert and pay a certain amount toward meat.

every 5 or 10 years we plan a big one coming up we will be doing a cruise

HANNA PREVIEW: For the Soul

This set is totally cool! I have not seen anything like it! I think it is perfect for a sympathy card, a thinking of you, a little hand out at church, maybe even for cards at Easter (thinking ahead here) etc. It is so CUTE! Hanna looks so angelic and well, to be completely honest, reminds me of my little sister (not sure why). I used the sketch at Card Positioning Systems (#83) for the layout. I was going for a "touched by an angel" look on the main image (and I think I kind of created that.) I used vellum to overlay the image to give it that glossy fuzz (soft focus).

My Decade Later Comeback and Playing Catch Up

Hello friends, It's been awhile and I kind of dropped off the face of the planet since moving to Oregon. I got busy with growing four babies into teens, and attempting to hold together a marriage with a partner who was working out of town for the most part. It was a lot! Truth be told, I have been spending most of my time over on Instagram which allows for more quick picture and caption posts (@the.amanda.sewell), but I really, genuinely miss having a journal of our adventures, so I'm back.  Some changes, my ex-partner moved out in October of 2023 (after 23 years of marriage, who would have thought?) and I am on a new, single mom adventure with the fabulous four. Luckily, they are adjusting to the changes well as we navigate this challenging time as a family team. Things are still in flux and hopefully at the end of all of this, the dust will settle and we will end up landing on our feet. Because of this change, I needed to go back to work and after not working for the past lo...
