Happy Homemaker Monday

This weekend flew by so quickly!  Shawn left for a work trip yesterday morning and won't be back until Friday night so I'm hoping that the week will fly by as quickly as the weekend did.



The Weather:::
It is unbelievably cold! I think it's a whole 18 degrees right now.

Right now I am: 
Sitting on the couch, waiting for the groceries to get here.

Thinking:
The about the day and week ahead.  We've got a lot of fun stuff planned and I think I'm going to plan Shawn and my anniversary dinner for this weekend.

On my tv:::
Right now I'm watching Larry Crowne which is actually quite a cute movie.

Things that make me happy:::
The kids home from school, making lots, of noise and running around like crazy kiddos and the dog laying at my feet enjoying them as well.

Monday - Frozen Pizzas
Tuesday - Chicken and Potato Casserole

What I am sewing, crocheting, knitting or creating:::
Hoping to get back to work on my corner to corner blanket tonight.

Looking around the house:::
We got some tidying done this morning, so outside of the kids' playroom needing a serious cleaning, the house is in good shape.  Ben and Sydney are sitting at the table. Scotland is snuggled up to me and Rylie is laying on the couch watching Scottie's iPad with her.

From the camera:::

On my prayer list:::

My friend Emily who still hasn't had her baby yet.  I believe she's at 41 weeks and 3 days or so now. Also, my husband for safe travels this 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...

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...
