Happy New Year! I hope you and yours had an amazing holiday break as well as an exciting start to the new year! We had a the best time over here. The weekend before Christmas was filled with lots of family and fun. The remainder of our break consisted of lazy mornings, lots of pajamas,…
Did anyone else have another crazy busy weekend? It sure was a busy one over here. Totally grateful, not complaining. 😉 Jon’s office party was on Thursday which meant that our weekend began a little earlier than usual. Elmer helped kicked the long weekend into gear by providing the kids with Trix cereal. Jon and…
Decorate for fall I did indeed decorate for fall, but somehow life happened and I never took any pictures of all of our decor. HUGE blogger fail. I remember a time that I’d do home tours for most every holiday. I really need to get it together. For 2018, please enjoy this pumpkin decoration that…
A Doctor’s appointment, some shopping, some crafting, the library, more crafting, a parade, a run and a birthday party. Phew!!! What a weekend we had over here and a good one at that! I am, unfortunately, a little late to the start of the week. I took a “sick” day yesterday. I dropped the kids…
Happy Five on Friday! I have so many “favorites” to share from the week! I’m linking up with Andrea, Erika and Narci to share all of the goodness. Let’s gooooo! Gift guides. Earlier this week I shared some gift ideas/guides for the little ones in your lives, based primarily off of what our kids are…
Okay, so I feel like this is a super specific gift guide/idea post. I’m thinking the Department 56 will throw you for a loop, but hey, it’s my wishlist, so why not, right? Or, hey, it’s a list of things for the 34-36 year old mom…? I thought I was the funniest person EVER when…
Hey, hey, hey – It’s What’s Up Wednesday! What We’re Eating This Week Tonight – Leftovers. It was supposed to be chili, but we had enough leftover spaghetti from last night for tonight. I’m not a huge fan of spaghetti, so I’m hoping to convince Jon that I should get Jimmy John’s for dinner –…
Now I don’t know about you, but I’m a list maker. I love lists and when it comes to Christmas you can find lists upon lists of gift ideas, holiday decor ideas, food ideas/ingredients, lists of events…you get the point… My name is Marie and I make lists. I love the idea of sharing my…
What a week/weekend, eh? There was so much goodness, I just had to document all of it! I’ll try not to be too wordy… Let’s go back to Wednesday. The kids had a half day of school and I ran around baking, cleaning and packing up to leave. We met up with Jon’s parents at…
Happy Wednesday, friends! Can you guys believe tomorrow is Thanksgiving? I’m beyond excited! We’re heading to my in-laws for Thanksgiving dinner – my mother-in-law’s stuffing is amazing and I plan on getting seconds and thirds. 😉 The day after Thanksgiving marks the somewhat official start to the holiday season, which for us means that our…
