The weather:::
I think it's supposed to be 90 degrees today.  It's been so amazing.  Yesterday Shawn bought the kids squirt guns for water fights.  They had a blast.

On my reading pile:::  
I haven't been reading much lately, so I still have Eat Pray Love by Elizabeth Gilbert and The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest by Stieg Larrson and now I think I may read The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins


On my TV:::
Lots of stuff on my DVR.  Mobwives, Real Housewives of Atlanta, Khloe & Lamar, and Shahs of Sunset.  Tons of trashy TV.


On the menu for this week:::
I'm so scattered... I have no idea what we're eating for dinner tonight, let alone the rest of the week.

What I am sewing, crocheting, knitting or creating:::
An apron for Sydney


Looking around the house:::
Rylie's grunting on the couch next to me, the kids are playing in their rooms, the dryer is running, and the house is mostly clean and newly decorated.  It really feels home-y.



From the camera::: 





Something fun to share:::
Yesterday, we had some family out for dinner and we grilled and the kids played outside with the neighbor kids.  It was so much fun and I'm excited that we have neighbors that we like and our kids can play with their kids.  It's so wonderful.  We liked the adult neighbors in our old neighborhood, but the kids were not behaved at all and were very mean to Sydney so this is a big change.



On my prayer list:::
My husband's Grandma.  She's not doing well.
My mother-in-law.  She's feeling very overwhelmed and with her mother's health decline, she's really not doing well.

I'm sorry about the neighbor kids, it's hard when that happens and you don't quite know how to deal with it.

Hope you're having a great 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...

Blogmas 2014- Day 1 Favorite Christmas Tradition

By
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...
