As I look outside my window:::
The sun is shining but everything is covered in snow.  I need the spring to come!

What I am sewing, crocheting, knitting or creating:::
I'm working on my crochet mood blanket. I think due to size, I'm going to end up doing 3 of them.

My simple pleasure:::
Lately, as silly as it is, it's just having laundry all caught up.  With so many people in this house, there always seems to be laundry in the hamper, but when I grab the last of the clothes out of that hamper and put them in the washer, it's wonderful.  Then to move it all over to the dryer and have nothing to put in the washer is just perfection.  This new washer and dryer has changed my life.

Lesson learned the past week::: 
If you are stressing about something getting done, just do it!  Don't wait for help or everything to fall in to place.  Just make it happen.

Looking around the house:::
Rylie is sleeping soundly on the love seat, Sydney is rearranging Rylie's stuffed animals on the chair and watching Teen Beach Movie, again.  The house is mostly ok, just some random cleaning and two baskets of laundry to fold.  There is also two boxes that were just delivered by UPS from Amazon of baby stuff for me to put together, sitting just inside the door.

From the camera:::




Prayer List:::
My husband while he travels this week.

Bible verse, Devotional:::Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid. ~ John 14:27

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...

   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...
