Happy Homemaker Monday


As I look outside my window:::
This morning, when I woke up, it was about 10 degrees outside.  I think we are going to get to 33 degrees today.  Everything just looks gray.

Right now I am::: 
Sitting on the couch watching a little trashy reality TV.

Thinking and pondering:::
New Years and I'm so excited to see what the new year will bring.

On my bedside table:::
My daily devotional
A water bottle or two or three
The remote to my TV

On my tv tonight:::
I'm still trying to get caught up on my Christmas specials.  My DVR has been acting up since my husband moved the modem around upstairs, so I don't have any of my recordings at the moment.
I've also been way hooked on Sons of Anarchy and have been watching every chance I get. 

Listening to:::
My kids playing wildly around the living room.

On the menu for this week:::
I know nothing except for tonight's meal...
Monday - Lemon Chicken with Artichoke Hearts, cranberries, potatoes au gratin, and roasted broccoli and asparagus.
Tuesday -
Wednesday -
Thursday -
Friday - 
Saturday -
Sunday - 

On my to do list:::
Dishes
Put laundry away
Vacuum

What I am sewing, crocheting, knitting or creating:::
I have nothing at the moment.  I need to get my hands on some material or yarn.  I'm so missing being crafty, I just haven't had much time.
 
My simple pleasure:::

Snuggling my babies while watching TV.  

Lesson learned the past week:::
I'm still working on it but it's to keep calm...

Looking around the house:::
The Christmas decorations have been taken down and the kids new toys have all found their new places.  I have a pile of dishes waiting for me in the sink, left over from last night, and the folding table set up in the living room with folded clothes piled on it, ready to be put away.  The kids are having a good time playing with toys and eating pica de gallo potato chips.

From the camera:::
We never get pictures of the full family and while at the museum Saturday, somebody offered to take our picture.


Prayer List:::
Family 

Bible verse, Devotional:::
"God is Spirit, and those who worship him must worship in Spirit and truth." John 4:24

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 13 How Are You Counting Down To Christmas

Ok, honestly....  I'm not.  I have this gorgeous advent calendar that is 3 building with little numbered doors all over them.  I haven't gotten it out for lack of space and really small children.  Maybe next year.  Also, Ben has been all over the lego ones and stuff so I figure, I'll pick up some next year or as I see them now this year, so each kid can have their own next year.  I don't know maybe I'll just make them if I'm feeling crafty and find the time.  It actually hit us all at once on Saturday that Christmas was less than 2 weeks away.
