    Weekend Recap

    Hello Monday, we meet again. Jack’s been battling a nasty little cough and cold this week and after providing such loving care to him, he thanked me by sneezing, coughing, and just non-stop breathing in my face and now I have the lovely thing. My snot is still clear (tmi?) so I’ve just been taking otc meds and keeping Kleenex in business. Anywho, despite my cold we headed to dinner at Texas Roadhouse Friday night where the cinnamon butter and multiple birthdays kept the kids occupied while waiting for our food. The man at the table next to us was celebrating his 70th birthday and after a little coaxing from…

    Friday, Friday

    Happy Friday everyone! We’ve got some snow forecasted for Saturday so I’m going to be stocking up on all the things to make snow ice cream and bake chocolate chip cookies while we watch the snow fall. It’s the first linkup of the new year so let’s get to it! //one// Wondering where I’ve been this week? Well I’ve been with the rest of the country watching Making a Murderer on Netflix. Even if you’ve read all about it online, you’ve got to check this show out, but it is a total time suck! //two// My sister gifted me with all the things necessary to make Moscow Mules for Christmas…

    A New Year {2016}

    Man I love the start of a new year and all that comes with it. 365 days ahead to do, be, and live better than ever before.

    Christmas Time Recap 2015

    Since I missed recaping almost all of our December happenings, I thought I’d do one big post about what we’ve been up to this month. I also Googled whether Christmas Time was in fact two words or one and in fact both are correct, so now you know. We started the month off by putting up the tree and getting all the decorations out. Jack’s school hosted a Breakfast with Santa with a pretty sad looking Santa I might add. And after breakfast we made these ornaments with our cousin. My pajama obsession continued on strong and I couldn’t resist these seals wearing hats. My work hosted a milk and cookies event…

    Merry Christmas!

    I know I’m a few days late but I just wanted to pop in and wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and happy New Year. We made it back from Disney just in time for Santa to stop by our house and boy did he spoil all of us this year. I’m hoping to recap our Christmas before the New Year and of course I’ll post all about Disney in the upcoming weeks. Until then, here’s two of my favorite pictures from our trip-Christmas time at Disney was even more magical than I could have imagined. Outside our hotel room at Disney’s Coronado Springs Resort. Over 200,000 lights on Cinderella’s…
