Happy Friday

 
Happy Friday and another week bites the dust.  It has been a good week around here, with maybe a few days of extra chaos due to school cancellations....seriously there is a reason why they have Summer break instead of Winter Break.....cabin fever!!
 
Past... A holiday, a snow day, and a cold weather day.  The girls attended 2 days of school this week.  There were no games to attend.  So that part was a little relaxing.  However 4 kids bored stuck inside one (though not tiny) not big enough house was CRAZY!  Doug and I did get away for the evening last Saturday night to be with friends and lunch on Monday.  No, we did not even invite the kiddos :)
 
Present....We are under a winter weather advisory, go figure.  I honestly become a little ticked when I receive those texts now a days.  I am wearing a super cute shirt today, feeling good.  I can't wait to work on my Bible Study this evening, that's when you know its good.  Staying in tonight and watching movies. Yes...
 
Future...A planning day with my Christian groups Spring retreat tomorrow.  Great fellowship and a pot luck lunch....secondary only to the presence of the Holy Spirit.  I am so looking forward to it. Pot luck at Church Sunday....oh my yummmm, and then games next week.  Hopefully the weather allows for a full week of school and no bad roads to work for me. 
 
These are some Pintrest finds for this week.....
 
So True

 
I want these and think I could make them.  Maybe...

 
I may or may not have named my second born daughter after this man....

 
I need this and am quite confident I could make it. But will I?

 
Yummmm....oh dear darling daughter who loves the kitchen, could this be lunch this week?
 

 
Have a great week :)

Daybook....

Good Morning, I am linking up with  The Simple Woman's Blog  for the weekly Daybook For today... February 9, 2015 Outside my window .... Chilly (in the 30's for a high) but no snow.  Most of the snow has melted from the warm temps this weekend. I am thinking ... that I had a great, great weekend with my family. I am thankful. .. that my children view each other as important.  We had to plan Lucy's birthday celebration around Katie's work hours because she just started her new job and can't request time off.  Lucy would have never considered celebrating her birthday without her big sis present. I am wearing. .. my sparkly sweater again.  I must need the sparkles to handle a Monday morning. I am creating ... nothing at the moment, but do have some unfinished projects.  My mind has been exhausted lately and I am just chilling and puttering around. I am praying ... for a family decision that could make a huge difference in our live...

It's OK

Time for some grumbling, snarkiness, and maybe a little bad attitude... So who came up with flowered scented dish soap?  Someone who drinks perfume?  This is just so gross. Really. Why must the good foods be fattening?  Why is Coca Cola bad for your weight, health, teeth,etc. but so good for your mood?  I would say that it is just me but the fact it is a billion dollar industry would contradict that, just sayin. Why did God not give me the love of cooking to match my love of eating home cooked foods?   Where do all my socks go? Really, my house is not that big. Is it really necessary to get hot sweats at night?  Wouldn't society be better if the menopausal women at least were well rested?  I think I need a snickers, I am definitely in Diva mode today!! 

Your Favorite Christmas Tradition

  We have developed many traditions for our family over the years.  We always open one present on Christmas Eve, we have Grinch Punch on Christmas Eve, we lay out cookies and a beer for Santa (this has been since my childhood), sprinkle oatmeal in the yard for the reindeer, have sparkling grape juice and chocolate eclairs on Christmas morning, and we go see a movie as a family on Christmas afternoon at the movie theater.   Leading up to Christmas we have chocolate advent calendars, have fun with R.J. our Elf on the Shelf, go to the surrounding towns that have light displays on a  snowy evening, attend  the Santa breakfast in town, and enjoy the school's Christmas program.   We have many family dinners and get togethers to attend to wish everyone a wonderful holiday and spend quality time with the ones we love.    My favorite tradition?  Probably leaving cookies and beer for Santa.  I don't know how it started but...
