Happy Homemaker Monday

HHM



The weather in my neck of the woods:
It appears that today is supposed to be wonderful.  I may take the kids out to the park.  



Things that make me happy: 
Spending all day with the kids for summer break.  Don't get me wrong, sometimes they drive me nutty, but even then, I love getting to be with them.

Menu for this week:
M- Creamed Chip Beef on toast
T- Pizza
W- Chicken curry with rice
Th- Sweet and Sour Pork chops
F-

What's on my TV today: 
I'm watching some vlogs right now as I type this up.

Looking around the house:
My bedroom is a complete tip, I really need to do some work in here. We bought a new shelf for the kitchen, so the kitchen is actually looking quite nice.  Also, last week I completely redid the kids playroom.  I mean, new shelving and toy buckets. It looks so nice in there and the kids can actually put their toys away so much easier.

On my To Do List:

Laundry
Take the kids out to the park
Syd- dance tonight

New Recipe I tried or want to try soon:
Nothing new really.  I did just buy a new cookbook but have been so busy I haven't had time to completely look through it.

In the craft basket:
Nothing at the moment but I've been promising the girls banners with their names on them for over their beds.  I need to get that done.  Also, I'm dying to get back crocheting again.

Looking forward to this week:
Just the usual. Sydney has dance tonight, Ben has baseball practice tomorrow, movie night pizza party (our typical when Shawn is out of town) on Tuesday evening. Shawn comes home on Wednesday and may have a softball game on Thursday evening.  Daddy daughter dance on Friday, and then Ben's baseball game on Saturday morning.

Tips and Tricks:
I can't really think of anything off the top of my head.

My favorite blog post this week: 
I don't have any, haven't had a chance to read anything.

Blog Hopping (a new discovered blog you would like to share with the readers):
Nothing new at the moment.  We've been quite busy.

No words needed (favorite photo or picture):


Lesson learned the past few days:
Hmmm... I can't think of anything even though I'm sure I learned a lot.  I learn something new every day.

On my mind:
Just that I'm exhausted.  I need a weekend to recover from my weekend, yet I'd just pack that full of activities as well.

Devotionals, Scripture Reading, Key Verses:

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...

Blogmas 2014- Day 1 Favorite Christmas Tradition

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...
