Friday

 
Wow this has been quite the week.....
 
Past....The weekend was busy with church activities.  Two potlucks...yummo.  We spent some time with family and it ended with another great week at Bible Study.  The older girls went to a concert with the youth group and had a ball.  The beginning of the work/school week started with two out of school days for extreme cold and I was home both days with Bronchitis.  Mid week  had Doug and Cass both sick and Madi with a terrible tooth ache that will require a root canal.  Poor babies :(  Madi had her first VB game finally and did great :)
 
Present...Well they expect another winter storm.  I made the big monthly trip to Walmart at lunch because I figure everyone will be there after work preparing for the storm.  I will make my way to the other grocery store to finish up the week's grocery shopping and then head to one of Madi's make up VB games.  I am still dealing with this cough and some low energy, but we keep on truckin' right? Now there is a silly saying, but we know I like those :)
 
Future...Tomorrow is piano, Cassie has a game, and Lucy and Katie have Dance Camp. Then Sunday is of course the Super Bowl.  GO FOOD!! oh I mean Go ......I guess Broncos!  No really, I mean GO FOOD, let's be honest :)  Then another busy week of work, maybe school (who knows anymore), and kid's activities.  I am not complaining, I think I thrive on busy :)
 
That's how we wrapped up around here.  Happy Friday!!

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...
