About

Hey there!

I’m Tracey, the busy mom behind the blog. With six kids (yes, really!), our chaotic biological + adoptive family is always up to something. My four boys are biological (hence the name Weinerville!) and my two girls are adopted.  God blessed us with only biological boys and it was not until my Aunt was tragically killed in a motor vehicle collision that we were blessed with our girls. Yes, I said blessed.  Even though loosing my Aunt was tragic it brought a huge blessing to our family and it was not until shortly after that we were able to see God’s plan and truly appreciate it.

We strive to live our life to the fullest and believe deeply in holding on to faith in difficult times. Over the last 61/2 years we have been through a car fire, a miscarriage, almost lost a child to severe anemia, illness after illness with our children, and most recently a devastating house fire.  Through all of the tragedy we have endured we have been able to find the good in every single situation and trust that God will most definitely take care of us.  Even though sometimes it is really hard.

Now we’re starting all over in a new state and slowly putting our lives back together.  When I’m not cooking and creating new recipes with my family, making our new home ours or on the lookout for new restaurants and places to explore, I’m here blogging about our crazy-beautiful life. As a woman and mother, my core beliefs center around supporting and empowering other women. That’s why I’m here!  And with that being said I would love for you to check out Eddelle Boutique.  This online boutique was started by a mother of boy/girl twins that just also happens to be a Marine Corp Veteran.  Its important for us women to support each other and help each other grow as mothers, wives, and business women.

We’ve all walked through dark times. But each of us has a story to tell. This my story and I am excited to share it with you.  I believe in the real story.  You won’t find any fluff here but you will find a story of love, faith, and the belief that there is good in every single day and the ongoing pursuit to raise happy successful children.  Oh, and you will also find some pretty darn good recipes if I do say so myself LOL.

It’s my hope that our story can help and guide you. So please, take a look around and always please feel free to like, comment, share, subscribe and pin away!

As Seen In

The Stay Sane Mom

OK Weinerville (Big Family, Blended Family, and Overcoming Tragedy) This one is run by a mamma of six kids. (Yeah, you thought you were overwhelmed? I said six kids…and she has time to run a blog. I have two and I’m lucky if my shoes match each other.) Tracey moms two adopted teenage girls and four boys that are biologically hers (hence the name Weinerville). Even with this comically-large tribe, her finesse, grace, and honesty make this blog unexpectedly magnetic. I found myself clicking on a post out of curiosity and finding myself unable to stop reading. Drop in for a read and I promise you’ll be equally spellbound.”
