Welcome to Amanda's Better Living Ideas & Links
We are a large blended family that loves to get together with family & friends.
We love Family Time...going to the beach & mountains, sports, playing games,
& saving money!
Personally, I go by many names...
Amanda...by my friends & family, Mom/Mommy...by my children, Momma Manda...by the children who became family by love, Mimsy...by my grandchildren, and Babe...by my Hunnie!
My husband & I have been together for 30 years! Truly, I love him more today than the day I married him! YES...he is a PIRATE, an ECU PIRATE!
I tell people that my heart beats outside my body...you can see it when you see my large blended family! Together we have 5 grown amazing children & their wonderful spouses/significant others, 6 beautiful grandchildren, and many pets between us all. These numbers have potential to grow!!
We have gone through many phases of life...from marriage to babies to grown adults. I kid sometimes that I don't know what I loved/love more: the Controlled Chaos of raising our children or the Purging our Empty Nest.
I created this blog and my website because I have been asked to share my ideas, recipes & links for Better Living. We have been blessed and hope to share blessings with others.
God is the source of my strength...Praising Him everyday for His blessings over me & my loved ones!
As this is a Work in Progress... We Thank you for following & supporting us!
