What I am sewing, crocheting, knitting or creating:::

Nothing at the moment. I need to get back to my blanket.

Looking forward to:::

Reading and relaxing. Maybe coffee with some of my momma friends  

Looking around the house:::
Scottie is watching TV in the living room and there is popcorn bits all over the floor in there. The kitchen counters are a little crazy with piles of stuff everyone just drops there that I need to pickup. Two of the cats (Ollie and Lena) are playing on the kitchen floor attacking each other while two of the dogs (Duchess and Cleo) stand at the backdoor watching. Dakota is laying in her kennel with the door open, just refusing to come out. Sometimes she'll sigh heavily letting you know she's still here and Fog is somewhere around here, angrily pouting, hopefully not peeing or pooping on things. Soon the other kids will be home and the house will be loud with children fighting and playing.

From the camera:::
My in-laws have the best sunset views from their back patio.



What I'm wearing today:::
Embroidered denim shorts and a burgundy colored v neck tshirt.

One of my simple pleasures:::
Driving around in beautiful neighborhoods looking at the flowers and colorful trees. I always look for inspiration since I badly want to paint my front door but don't know what color would work on my house.      

Bible verse, Devotional, prayers::: 
Prayers for my friend who is having some health problems and prayers for a friend going through a rough divorce.

That is a gorgeous sunset, wow!!!

Your look around the house sounds like mine used to be when my kids were your age. I always used to think that Mondays looked like a tornado went through during the weekend lol

I hope you have a fantastic week :)

A Lily in the Light sounds really good, I'm going to have to see if my library has a copy.

I want to repaint my door too. At our old house we had a red one and I loved it but I'm thinking something along a blueish green this time. Anything but the horrible white it is right now.

Have a great 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...

Thinking: I need to run out and pick up some plants.

Something fun to share::: I can't really think  of anything other than we're getting ready for Sydney's birthday this Saturday.  My big girl will be 3. On the menu for this week::: Monday  - Jason's Deli Tuesday  - Hamburger steak with sweet onion gravy and mashed potatoes Wednesday  - Roasted chicken...
