Day of Sunshine :)


Well, I feel like my life has been upside down lately. Conner has been sick all week. 3 times at the doctors office in 8 days is no fun. I think he is finally starting to feel better (I think the beautiful day had alot to do with it). I thought I was going to do alot of cleaning today but after cleaning out a cabinet and a couple loads of clothes, I decided to clean another day. My house is a wreck, but I could not pass up an afternoon of sunshine!! The fresh air is really something I have been needing all week. I have had one rough week at work. I am thinking of quitting but I need to line up another job first. Anyway... I hate talking about work, it makes me feel all down and stuff and I am not in the mood to feel that way right now!! Here are some pics of our day of sunshine :)

I can not think of anything good for my title??

I would love to blog right now but I am really tired! I will tell you that I had an awesome and much needed 3 day weekend!! I wish we had at least one 3 day weekend a month.  I actually had a great Monday and Tuesday this week but then today came and messed up the flow.  Hopefully the end of this week will be great and stress free :) Good night to all!!


Things I have planned for the weekend:
-much needed haircuts for the family.
-sewing something fun and working on my quilt
-Anne's birthday party
-Church
-relaxing

oh and maybe clean my house  :(

Happy V-DAY!!


I was very surprised when I received my valentine's day gift this year. I have wanted an ipod dock for a while and been hinting around. But never did I think he would get me this cool thing!! WOW!!  It sounds awesome!! Both of my Valentines took me out to eat tonight!! I love my boys so much. Tomorrow we are going to the coast with my parents. I hate I am missing church. This will be the 2nd Sunday in a row :( Good night to all!!

where are you Vacation????

Oh where are you vacation?? I need a little break just to relax and play with my little guy. Oh yeah... and clean my house! This peak season is getting the best of me. I am referring to our busy season at work. I work MOnday-Friday 8-5 but here lately its been 8-6 or work my regular hours then come home and log on from the remote desktop and work till 10 and one night it was 1 in the morning. I worked this past SAturday and might have to work this SAturday. Conner does not like these long hours and I hate the way they make me feel. I am feeling more like a business woman than a mom! It is the worst feeling ever :( I would love to quit my job and stay at home with Conner but thats not going to happen until the hubby finishes school. I have been eating way too many cupcakes and cookies here lately. They really make my days better!! Anyway, here are a couple of pictures from the past couple of nights :)

Thinking positive??

After a long hard day of work, I am trying to stay positive. God has a plan and even though I don't know what it is, I do trust him and know that he will take care of me, of us! My job has been getting the best of me lately and especially after a week like this week. I would look forward to the weekend but I have to work :( Oh well, things could always be worse so I am trying not to complain or stress or worry which is my middle name!! On a different subject, LOST is back!!! Oh yes, I am obsessed!! Last night was the season premier and its actually the last season so its going to be good! My hubby did have a sweet side to him this afternoon. He knew I was having a bad day so he stopped by Teresa's and bought me a 1/2 dozen caramel cake squares and yes... I ate every single one of them for supper!! That is one of my favorites along with Lee's cupcakes with sprinkles!! I think I will have one for lunch tomorrow. If you haven't notice already, sweets are a really big part of our life. Most normal healthy families eat fruit for snacks, we eat homemade cookies and cupcakes. And this is the reason I am starting boot camp :)


This is my before picture of my pantry. I am thinking of cleaning this out and in the back making it my sewing nook! I need a space that is mine that I can escape to for peace and quite and since our house is so small this is all I can come up with. I think it can work, actually I am going to make this work!


I cleaned Conner's room Sunday afternoon and by Sunday night it looked like this. And it still looks like this:)

Last night this is the way i wanted to spend my night, reading my new Country Sampler magazine with hot chocolate, by the fire. It lasted for about 15 min. Conner thinks I only should read his books.



Good Night and Happy Thursday to all!!
