Happy Homemaker Monday

Happy Homemaker Monday

The weather..... Hot and humid today, but it looks like it may be a little cooler later this week.




Right now I am....Watching about the royal baby and on the phone with my mom.

Thinking....About how much I still have to do around the house.  Coming back from vacation is hard.

On my reading pile....The Duggars: 20 and Counting! and The First American Cookbook

On my TV.....Desperate Housewives, and I was also on Baby watch

What I found while surfing the net....Nothing at the moment.  I've been busy working on chores all day and I just got home from vacation yesterday.

On the menu for this week....I have no menu at this point for the week.  I need to come up with one, but just haven't planned that far ahead.  I don't even know what I'm cooking for dinner yet and it's 3:40.

On my to do list....
Finish laundry
Clean the counters in the kitchen
Vacuum
Clean the kitchen floor
Bake cookies

In the craft basket....I'm hoping to get to work on my granny square blanket at some point this evening.  

Looking forward to this week....Getting back into the swing of things since vacation.  

Looking around the house....The kids are resting in their beds and I'm sitting in a clean living room (well except for the floor which needs vacuuming and maybe a good carpet cleaning) while Desperate Housewives is on the TV.  The washer, dryer, and dishwasher are running.  I have candles burning above the kitchen sink, on the fireplace mantel, and on the dresser in my bedroom.  The house smells amazing.

 From the camera....


On my prayer list.....
Anyone who needs it right now...

Bible verse, Devotional....
Do not hate hard work;  work was assigned by God.  Ben Sira 7:15

Vacation is wonderful, but coming back is always a bummer LOL The worst part for me is unpacking and knowing I have tons of laundry etc. Ugh!

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

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...
