New recipe I tried, or want to try this week::::

Visiting with Blog friends (blog you want to share, blog post that caught your eye)::::
I just started going back and rereading my old blogs.  It's interesting to see what life was like back when we only had 1 child. 

Praying for::::
The family and close friends of a friend of mine from highschool who lost her battle with cancer.
My husband as he travels this week. 
Myself to keep my sanity as we settle into our new schedule with school, dance, soccer, etc.


Bible Verse, Devotional that is resonating with me at the moment::::
What, then, shall we say in response to this?  If God is for us, who can be against us? ~ Romans 8:31

 Some days, when everything is stressful, and I feel that the world isn't on my side, I just need to hear that.

I have both of those cookbooks and love them. Trisha Yearwood has amazing recipes and so does the Amish one :)

Love the picture of the horse, so cute.

I hope you have a really good week and that Ben is still enjoying his first few days of school in first grade :)

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...
