My Favorite Days

Productive Saturday mornings are my favorite.  I love when we get up and enjoy the day together as a family.  Now with Shawn traveling for work, it's even more special.

This morning we got up and went to the Farmer's Market out here in Lawrence.  I love supporting local people and I think food is much better when it's home made or home grown instead of mass produced and made with a bunch of not natural ingredients.  We try to feed our family more organic things anyway.  There is nothing better than buying organic produce from a bunch of hippy men with dreads, baked goods from an Amish woman, and fresh sausage from an old farmer.

After the Farmer's market, we got coffees, picked up my prescriptions from the pharmacy, and got our van a much needed car wash.

Sydney decided she did not like the car wash, about half way through it.  Ben held her hand and comforted her so she was alright, but all we've heard from her since then, was how she doesn't like car washes.

Here's a video my husband took during brunch, asking her what she thought about car washes:





Now to get Syd to nap a little so Shawn and I can get a little cleaning done before the kid's play date at the park this afternoon.  Who knows what the rest of the day will bring.  Maybe some more errands and maybe, just maybe we'll be getting little Syd Bug's ear's pierced.  (She only asks all day, every day to get it done.)

Blogmas 2014 - Day 8 What Is On Your Wish List This Year

Oh my goodness, I'm really pretty easy to buy for.  I have pretty much everything a girl could want.  I mean of course I have a few things but I'm not really counting on anything because I already got a huge gift of the new car. I really love scarves, especially infinity scarves right now.  I'm beyond obsessed.   Fun gadgets, appliances, etc for my kitchen are always a win for me as well as cookbooks and decorations.  I'm so into all of it, and it's the best go to gift idea for me. A nice pair of rain boots or wellies.  I just bought some for all of my kids for Christmas, and I've been dying for my own for years. Vera Bradley!  I'm so in love with Vera Bradley.  I'd like a bigger purse, as well as a library tote bag. And honestly I've not asked for any of even these things because what I want more than anything else in the world, is our own house.  I want to buy a house for my kids to grow up in an...

Happy Homemaker Monday

As I look outside my window::: The sun is shining so bright and it's absolutely gorgeous outside. The leaves are just starting to change. We put up our outside decorations last night for fall and Halloween. It's looks so cute out there. Right now I am:::: Sitting at the counter trying to quickly type up this post and eat my br...

Petty

This evening our sweet little Petty went to Kitty Heaven.  The cancer had spread to her brain, causing her to have odd behaviors.  The tumor in her mouth, or the side of her face, had pulled down her ear canal on that side and caused her eye to twitch, which the vet said caused constant vertigo.  The cancer had also spread to her intestines causing her to loose control of her bowels and bladder and she was bleeding internally.  While she didn't appear to be suffering, there is no way that she wasn't.  We sadly had to have her put down. Yes, I'm meowing at her in the video.  Sometimes she would answer when you would do that, but she would always come to you. She was such a cute little love bug.  I named her Perpetua, from the Bridget Jones movies, and later we shortened it to Petty, just because we are a family of nicknames.  I remember when we first got her and she was so tiny.  She looked like a lemur and she was all black with a cou...
