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

Image
By

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 and have sleep overs with good friends.  And I want to host a family holiday every year.  I want a swing set with a fort on it for the kids and a driveway for a basketball goal and to ride bikes in.  I want a kitchen I can move around in with other people in it, and to no longer live so piled on top of each other.  We are saving for it now with the hopes that come the time our lease is up, we are moved into our family home.

You have a beautiful dream! I could just picture it as I was reading your greatest wish. We waited 17 years for ours to come true. On the day it happened I still couldn't believe it was real! Many blessings to you and your family as you save for your dream home.

   As I look outside my window::: So far today, it is cold and gloomy! Right now I am:::  Sitting on the couch under my crocheted afghan. Thinking and pondering::: On Thanksgiving!  What to fix.  I think I'm getting carried away, but I love it.  On my bedside table::: I haven't been doing much reading lately and I should. Duck Commander Family by Willie and Korie Robertson Frozen by Sarah Nathan and Sela Roman On my tv tonight::: American Horror Story Some Doctor Who specials Playing on the radio::: I don't have anything playing right now, but I'm obsessed with James Blunt's new song, Bonfire Heart. The video is amazing too.  I love the story behind the video.  The people in it are NOT actors.  The wedding scene towards the end, he actually crashed a wedding and captured the bride and grooms first dance.  Amazing.  And, not only is his voice and music wonderful, he's a total hottie. On the menu for ...
