Happy Homemaker Monday



The weather:::
I think it's supposed to be 90 degrees today.  It's been so amazing.  Yesterday Shawn bought the kids squirt guns for water fights.  They had a blast.

On my reading pile:::  
I haven't been reading much lately, so I still have Eat Pray Love by Elizabeth Gilbert and The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest by Stieg Larrson and now I think I may read The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins


On my TV:::
Lots of stuff on my DVR.  Mobwives, Real Housewives of Atlanta, Khloe & Lamar, and Shahs of Sunset.  Tons of trashy TV.


On the menu for this week:::
I'm so scattered... I have no idea what we're eating for dinner tonight, let alone the rest of the week.

Looking around the house:::
Rylie's grunting on the couch next to me, the kids are playing in their rooms, the dryer is running, and the house is mostly clean and newly decorated.  It really feels home-y.



From the camera::: 





Something fun to share:::
Yesterday, we had some family out for dinner and we grilled and the kids played outside with the neighbor kids.  It was so much fun and I'm excited that we have neighbors that we like and our kids can play with their kids.  It's so wonderful.  We liked the adult neighbors in our old neighborhood, but the kids were not behaved at all and were very mean to Sydney so this is a big change.



On my prayer list:::
My husband's Grandma.  She's not doing well.
My mother-in-law.  She's feeling very overwhelmed and with her mother's health decline, she's really not doing well.

I'm sorry about the neighbor kids, it's hard when that happens and you don't quite know how to deal with it.

Hope you're having a great week :)

The weather..... It appears that Spring has sprung...  Some nice spring storms and mostly warmer weather. Right now I am.... Sitting outside at the table on the front porch while the kids run and play or stop to eat their snacks.    Thinking.... Ugh Monday... Mondays always seem to be the worst days for me. On my reading pile.... Starting a new one that I picked up last week at one of my favorite stores, Brits.  Jane Austen:  Her Life And Letters by William Austen-Leigh and  Richard Arthur Austen-Leigh On my TV..... Everything from my DVR since we are switching cable providers and will be losing our current DVRs on Wednesday.
