Happy Homemaker Monday




The Weather:::
Today it was almost 60 degrees and the rest of the week is to be in the 60s

Right now I am: 
Sitting on the couch watching Hocus Pocus with all three of the kiddos while we wait for dinner to get here.

Thinking:
How tired I am.  I just need sleep.  I got a decent night last night, but for some reason I'm more tired today than normal.
