Is it hot in here or is it just me?

Ok, so I'm pretty sure it's just hot everywhere right now. The AC in our car is pretty much ca put. There is a slow leak, so we are putting coolant in there every two weeks or so with the help of Shawn's parents and their friend Terry. Well last night it decided to run out, on our way home from Kansas City. Today was miserable. We had a few errands to run which were definitely cut short because of the heat.

We went to Hy-vee which is about a block and a half away and by the time we got there, Ben was red and his hair was soaked with sweat. I felt terrible. I just thought we should maybe get some popcicles or something because of how hot it was.

Shawn and Ben went to KC tonight to get the air fixed. I was a little worried about Ben riding all the way there in a hot car, but he did just fine and now we should hopefully be good through vacation. If we take our car, I think we'll be taking extra coolent with us. I'm not riding in a hot car from Table Rock lake back to Lawrence.

I'm looking forward to our vacation. The relaxation will be nice. We've just been too stressed lately. Now, to figure out what to do with Maya while we are gone. Luckly we are only going from Thursday through Sunday instead of the whole week.

Tonight, Ben said his first two word phrase that I've ever heard. He was telling Maya "good girl." It was so cute. Ben and Maya are best friends. For those who don't know, Maya is our dog. Here is a few pictures of Ben and Maya in Maya's "bedroom." Ben likes to shut them both in there and play or cuddle with her.

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...

Blogmas 2014- Day 1 Favorite Christmas Tradition

This year, I'm participating in Sandra's, at Diary of a Stay at Home Mom, Blogmas 2014.  If you want to join in, you can go over to her post, by clicking here , and see what it's all about.   When I was a kid, growing up, we never had fake trees.  I loved everything about them. The smell, the way they looked, and even more so, the going out as a family in the cold.  It was always a hunt whether at a tree far or a parking lot full of precut trees.  When I was younger it was the parking lot.  There was a place about a mile from our house that we would drive to.  We'd walk through tons of trees leaning against walls and fences.  My dad would hold each one up, shaking them a little bit and asking what we thought.  We all got to be involved in finding the perfect tree.  As we got older, we started going to tree farms instead of the parking lot.  We'd get a sled and a saw and walk between aisles and aisles in fields, full of gorgeou...
