Hello!  Hope this afternoon finds everyone well.  I've been so busy today with the big kids' dentist appointments, and playing and crafting with the little girls.

The weather.....
We had amazing weather all weekend and now it's so cold.  It's about 34 degrees right now and the windchill is near 0. This morning, it was snowing like crazy, but it didn't amount to anything.  I think it's supposed to only get colder by the end of the week.

Right now I am....
Sitting on the couch cuddled up with Scotland and Rylie, watching Frozen for the bajillionth time.

Thinking....
About everything that I have to get done this tonight, and then this week to get ready for the kids valentine's parties and then Rylie's birthday party on Saturday at Chuck E Cheese.

On my TV.....
Right now, Frozen, but later and this week, Fixer Upper and Property Brothers and who knows what else.

On the menu for this week....
I'm working on my grocery delivery right now.
Monday - Savory Beef & Noodles
Tuesday - Mac 'n' Cheese soup and bread
Wednesday - Grilled cheese and Tomato soup
Thursday - Husband's delight pasta
Friday - Waffles and eggs 

On my to do list....
A load of Laundry
vacuuming
Sydney's dance
Ben's clay class
cook dinner
dishes
Help the kids with their valentine's boxes
Help with homework and listen to the kids reading
Put in a grocery delivery for tomorrow morning.
And on top of it all, Scottie's decided to potty train.

   
In the craft basket....
My corner to corner blanket
Hand made Valentine's from Rylie and Scotland to each other, Ben and Sydney, and grandparents

Looking forward to this week....
Getting everything done so we can enjoy Ben and Sydney's class Valentine's parties on Friday, Rylie's birthday party of Saturday, and Rylie's birthday on Sunday.

Looking around the house....
The house is probably the cleanest it has been in weeks and it makes me so happy.  Maya is laying at my feet.  The girls are up singing and dancing "Let it go" with the movie.

From the camera....
Took Sydney out for a mommy daughter date this weekend.  We got our finger and toe nails done together.  It was a nice time.


On my prayer list.....
My dear friend who lost her father a couple of weeks ago, not even one week after having her baby.  

Bible verse, Devotional....

Whew! It seems like you have a lot on your plate! Prayers to your friend, I lost my father while I was pregnant with my youngest son. It is tough to experience the joy of a baby and the grief of losing a parent at the same time. Hope you have a wonderful week!

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

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 an...

Petty

By
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...

Happy Homemaker Monday

The Weather::: Right now, it's 30 degrees.  It's supposed to get up to 40 today though. Right now I am: Sitting at the kitchen table with Scotland in my lap.  Rylie is playing with a remote control My Little Pony scooter toy on the kitchen floor. Thinking: How busy today is, what all I need to get done, and the walk I want to go on. On my reading pile::: Right now, I'm reading a book my sister-in-law loaned me called Red Queen by Victoria Aveyard On my tv::: I've got several shows to catch up on, just not sure how I'm going to fit TV in today.  Maybe during nap time. I've been really enjoying Super Store lately.  It really reminds me of The Office but in a Walmart type store.  It's nice to just laugh and laugh.  It's a lot easier to watch vlogs while I work on the iPad. Something fun to share::: This weekend we went to a birthday party for a little girl we've known for a couple of years and became friends with her family...
