Lots of craziness!

Well, keeping in the tradition of blogging about how busy we've been, all I can say is wow we've been super busy.  This is our last week at the old house.  It was supposed to be last week, but due to some issues with utilities, it is this week.

I'd like to apologize for having changed the blog to invited readers only.  This should be only temporary with hopes of opening it back up in a few months.  There are some people that don't need to know what is going on in my family's personal lives and this will make it more difficult for them to get that information.

Our tub is almost completely installed now.  Thank goodness.  The guy that has been doing the work has been so friendly and done such a good job.  Since we've been working with him for 2 weeks now, I'm going to miss him when he's done.  Weird, I know, but so true.

I have spent the last two nights at the park with the kids.  I must say, I love meeting other moms at the park.  Yesterday, I met a really nice woman and her daughter who is 20 months old.  Ben played with her daughter until it was time for us to leave. Shawn got to go with us tonight which was fun.




















While most children I've seen pretend this is a restaurant, my son pretends it's a barn and he moos like a cow.  It cracks me up.  He has a wild imagination and I love it.









































Little Miss Sydney was enjoying the fresh air at the park also.




















He's also gotten over his fear of swinging really high and just laughs and laughs.

We've done a craft or art time every day this week, which is a lot for us, but since we've uncovered the kitchen table, we're able to do more.  The best feature of this house is the backyard.  The weather has been nice enough that we've been able to enjoy it everyday this week.  I hope that can continue.  The dog loves us out there with her too.




















Lastly, my best friend, Lauren, (the one that is visiting from Hawaii) came to visit us with her husband, Ben, today.  I miss her being here so much.  Her husband is such a sweetie and pretty cute too.  No doubt they'll have an adorable baby.

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::: 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 ...

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...
