Happy Homemaker Monday

Happy Monday! Can you believe it is February already? Time is truly flying by.



The Weather:::
It's about 40 degrees right now.  It's supposed to get quite rainy later.


Right now I am: 
Sitting on the couch with all 3 girls sitting around me on their iPads and I'm definitely getting a case of sensory overload. (Sydney is home sick today.  She seems fine now but had a fever all day yesterday and all night last night.)

Thinking:::
I seem to have a lot on my mind, mostly with this house buying stress.  There is just no inventory here right now, and I'm hoping this start to hit the market because I really can't wait to buy and have our own home.

Looking forward to:::
Naptime! LOL, no honestly just getting things done.  We seemed to have gotten most of the house back in order this weekend so just maybe some organizing and getting rid of things.

On my reading pile:::
Still working on Red Queen.


On my tv:::
I've been watching lots of HGTV lately.  

Things that make me happy:::
Spending time with family.  Nothing makes me happier than seeing the kids enjoying time with their grandparents and aunts and uncles.

Looking around the house:::
There are some glasses in the kitchen sink that need to be put in the dish washer, and the living room is covered in toys.  The girls are all cuddled up on the couches with their iPads while I sit in the middle of them all.  Shawn is in meetings in his office as he usually is on Monday mornings.

From the camera:::


On my prayer list:::
My good friend, who finally had her baby less than two weeks ago, but lost her father last 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 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...
