The weather outside is::::
Today, the high is about 70 and then we have a cold front moving through saying it's going to get into the 30s and possibly little bits of snow.



On the breakfast plate this morning::::
Coffee and a handful of cheez-its.

As I look outside my window:::
It's a beautiful day out there right now.  And, my tree in my front yard finally changed.



Right now I am::::
Sitting on the couch, typing up this post and nursing sweet little Scotland.
As I look around the house::::
I have some picking up to do, and a little laundry laying in the hallway, begging to be washed.  Scotland is eating happily, and Sydney and Rylie are watching Marley and Me for the 2nd time this morning in the playroom.  The first time was so devastating to them that they had to see Marley alive again.

On today's to do list::::
Laundry.....I have a load or two of laundry to take care of.
Cleaning.....There are some dishes to do, some minor picking up, and cleaning the floors.
Dance.... Sydney has dance this evening clear across town.

What I am creating at the moment::::

Favorite photo from the camera::::
I actually have two pictures, and they are very similar but one is the big kids with Shawn and the other is the big kids with me.  This was at the eXtreme Bugs exhibit we went to this weekend.

The original British version of Gracepoint called Broadchurch is the best.

I have to agree with Theresa, Broadchurch was fantastic, not too sure about Gracepoint.

Love the pictures, you have the sweetest family.

Oh and as to the Doctor Who finale, ugh, we are so irritated, and I was heartbroken with Pink....why???? So unfair.

Anyway lol Hope you have a fantastic week :)

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...
