A very Iowan Thanksgiving!

Weds, my parents and I made the trek to Iowa to spend Thanksgiving with my Bro, SIL and precious nephew! It felt like a very long drive!
Once we got there, we made a pit-stop at Whitey's home to the BEST ice cream you could ever dream of!
I had a very cherry smoothie it was soooooo good!!
We got to their house and Grampy played in Benjamin's box. Mr B wasn't quite sure what to think of that..
Mr B LOVES his eeyore!!! He loves on it and lays his head down, it's sooo sweet! this picture with grampy in the box in the background cracks me up!!
Stinker face!!
A road worn Auntie and Snugglemuffin!!
This could be why he likes Grampy better than Auntie! I was growling at him. He liked it. I promise.
The one decent picture of me and my boy! I just LOVE him!!
hahaha drunk face. one day he will kill me for these pictures. But i'm safe for now!

I think this is such a precious picture! Mommy was putting on Yogi Bear, and Benjamin was helping her out!

Friday I was SOOOOOO excited! Apes came and spent the afternoon with me! We went to The Machine Shed restaurant, which was super cute!! And had some really good blt's!
You know we had to take a car picture! we totally didn't plan on matching in grey!
Ok so we had a little photo shoot at the Shed as well! Apes poses so well!
I was not nearly as cute as her!
Isn't she adorable?! We hung out at the house after with my parents and Mr B. He was pretty shy so he kept cuddling into my chest and under my chin. it was sooo precious. I love it when he's cuddly and shy!
Grampy fed him dinner Friday night. And they had a green bean fight. My nephew is way too smart for his own good! the green bean would get right next to his mouth and he'd chomp it shut and turn his head. and then he'd laugh! what a stinker!! :)
He was pretty proud of himself!
he also got to have cake for the first time! he was a fan. This is his normal pose while sitting. He always has his feet propped up on the end of his chair. Makes it very tickalicious!!
After we opened his birthday presents Grampy read him his Corey Combine book!! Side note, look at his GORGEOUS curls!!! I love his curly hair!!
And the morning before we left. Playing with Corey Combine and VROOM VROOM'ing. That child vroom vroom's all the time. He also moo's. It's pretty much the cutest thing ever! I miss my snugglemuffin allready!

This is My Love Story

In the predawn hours of New Years Day 2004 I was faced with a choice. After spending New Year's Eve at a local bar with a friend, I came home and through the events that transpired, I saw clearly a vision of my future. What would happen to me if I continued on the path I had been taking. I had a choice to make and within a split second I knew what my answer was going to be. I grew up in a Christian home. I was saved at an early age. When I was 13/14 on my Birthday Sunday, Pastor Martin preached a sermon about those of us who had been saved at an early age and knowing if your salvation was real or not. I spent the rest of the day and my party tormented because I could not remember what was in my heart when I was younger. That night I gave my life to Christ and knew without a shadow of a doubt that I was his, and going to Heaven. In the years that followed I continued to be very active in church. I played the Piano and was in charge of Sunday night offertory, I was t...

Blue Monday!

Today's Festive Blue Monday outfit! I wore my tried and true trouser jeans, a short sleeved beaded top I got on clearance at Macy's of all places for 6 bucks!! And my awesome new jeweled flats! Sooo comfy and cute! Since it was in the 60's today I was able to get away with this warmer weather outfit! Beading on the top, I love it! Shoes, so ugly they are cute!!

45/52

This week was rather lackluster, because I came down with a sickness on Monday and was down for the count Monday and Tuesday. I was super annoyed, because I had not taken a sick day since May and I was really trying to make it to 2019 without that happening! Boo!  My new coffee maker came in the mail, and it is so cute! It's like a miniature coffee maker, only makes 4 cups. It's adorable.  My nephew's 4'th Birthday present came as well. And I was a little concerned at the size of the box. Thankfully it wasn't as large as it appeared, but still a decent size!  Wednesday I rejoined life after being sick and ran out to get some free stix from Hotbox pizza and look what I saw!!!! A New DD is coming much closer to my house!! OH I was SO EXCITED!!!!!!  That afternoon I was working on getting all of my Christmas tubs brought inside from the shed, so I could decorate on the weekend. Then I had some cancellations and decided to start. I got the Piano room ...
