Happy Homemaker Monday


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.

The original British version of Gracepoint called Broadchurch is the best.
Love the "BUG" pictures! Have a great week.

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

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.
