The weather.....



A little warmer this week than the past couple weeks but still incredibly nice for August.

Right now I am....
Laying on the couch while the girls eat dry cereal out of plastic baggies.  Ben is at school.

Thinking....
I'm exhausted and I don't understand why Rylie won't sleep at night.

On my reading pile....
Right now, I'm flying through Eleanor by Kristiana Gregory.  I bought a few of the children's historical fiction books and I'm loving them.  I like the innocence you get when reading a children's chapter book.  It's not all sex and such.  There has to be an actual story line.

On my TV.....
Right now, The Real Housewives of New Jersey and later I'm hoping to watch Sister Wives and Breaking Amish LA

On the menu for this week....

Monday - Savory Beef and Noodles
Tuesday -  Chicken Tacos
Wednesday - Southern Style Pork Chops
Thursday - Cheesy Chicken Soup and bread
Friday - Hamburger Steaks with Sweet Onion Brown Gravy
Saturday - 
Sunday - 

On my to do list....
Laundry
Dishes
Cleaning the kitchen
Floors

In the craft basket....
I haven't had a chance to work on anything lately.

Looking forward to this week....
I'm not really sure.  I'm just hoping to get through this week as it is Ben's first full week of school.

Looking around the house....
The house is pretty messy.  I have my work cut out for me today.  Sydney is on the couch, snuggling the kitty, watching Teen Beach Movie on her iPad.  Rylie is running all over the living room throwing dry cereal everywhere.
  
From the camera....
I have a couple of pictures this week, because I couldn't decide which one to post.




On my prayer list.....
My son as he goes to school this week for his first full week of all day school.

Bible verse, Devotional....
Loyalty will spring up from the earth, and Justice will lean down from heaven. ~ Psalms 85:11

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...

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

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...
