Christmas with Snugglemuffin! Pt 1

Snugglemuffin made his long awaited trip to In to see his Nana, Pa, and Cherry for Christmas! We were sooooo excited to see him! Here are the three Hendress Men!

 He gave us all hugs and kisses when he arrived. It was sooo precious! I love this pic of my Dad hugging him!!
 After hugs it was down to business. Taking his favorite train, he has loved this thing since he was a little itty bitty, and he excavator, which he can pronounce! to Nana's kitchen to play on the floor. He loves playing on her kitchen floor! I'm guessing partially because she gives him food! But he does it when she doesn't feed him as well.
 Perfect representation. B is opening all of the presents, and Mom is putting together his power tool that he just opened. Notice Eeyore is right by his side.
 He got a tent that you blow up and fill with balls. Think twice before you purchase something like this because 1. it has to get blown up somehow. using a hand sweeper does not work. it will smell like burning. and no this was not my idea. 2. when the receiver of the tent has to drive 5+ hours back home, you have to deflate the tent. this is not easy. trust me on this one. and thirdly, if you are 30 years old and 5'10" do not attempt to crawl into the tent to amuse your nephew. And no, there are no pictures of this.

 The entire time they were there I kept telling my SIL we need to take pictures of us! I haven't had a picture with you since B was born. Did this happen? No. Well there was the failed family pictures on the couch that will never see the light of day. So this picture is to prove that she was indeed there and doesn't she look pretty? i love her bangs!
 Nana read B a special kindle book called STINKY KITTY. About a skunk. Wonderful book. He loved it. It did not help the fact that he kept calling us stinky and called ME stinky until I would take a shower everyday!! I much more prefer my other nickname "Silly Cherry"

He did hold my hand a little bit so that made up for some of the stinky comments.
 Another attempt at a framer. I look weird because I was singing Jingle Bells trying to get him to smile. He is trying to run away from me. ahhh life with a 2 year old!!
 HAHAHAHAH oh our attempts at self portraits are just so stinkin struggling that they are hilarious to me!!!!
 B was a big boy and helped Nana carry in presents. He's carrying a HEAVY tool set in this pic and was huffing and puffing carrying it! we laughed so hard!! and then Kev opened it and we were all shocked he could carry it!! Strong Boy!!
 Nana and Pa got him lots of tools and lots of noisy toys. Auntie was the winner in the not buying annoying toys lottery this year!
 B helped Pa open all of his presents. Such a good helper. Of course he wanted to keep them, the tools that is. but minor detail!
 Opening a present from Auntie. His Second Year book!!
He got a pair of snow boots from Nana and Pa and decided they were for Pa. Sadly Pa's big feet would not fit in them.
And the cutest memory ever. One morning he was playing with the afore mentioned tent. And had Eeyore, his bff, sitting on top of the tent. Well, B loves to make the tent fall sideways and then right it again. Eeyore fell off the top and to the ground when this occured. So B picked him up and cradled him, went over to his rocking chair, and sat in it hugging eeyore and patting his back saying "it's ok... it's ok..you're alright it's ok" in a sing song little voice... then he kissed him twice and we heard "lub you" sweetest.thing.ever. He is such a sweet little guy. He is such a precious little joy to us!!

January Recap

  Tap, Tap, Tap. Is this thing on? No, your eyes aren't deceiving you, I'm back blogging after almost a year of not posting anything. I did a month long Prayer and Fasting with my church and abstained from Social Media (more about that to come) and during that time I realized I really missed blogging! So here I am! Clearly I'm rusty at this because I managed to upload my pictures in the opposite order, and I'm too lazy to go through and move each and every one of them, so we are going to look back at the month of January from the end to the start! Let's go! The Last day of January was a busy one. Well for me at least, after spending most of 2022 on my parents couch, inbetween surgeries, doing anything is busy for me. I had a piano tuning for Old faithful, my new to me baby grand, so I hung out in my bedroom while my tuner was there, and worked on my laptop. Before that I had my 1 year Brow touch up with Marissa at Lafayette Microblading. It had actually been over a

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

Frugal Friday- (Some) Tips and Tricks on how I get the most bang for my buck

(Shoutout to Ollies for the perfect Picture for this blog post) Remember when it was January and I said I was going to blog more this year? Well, it's now December, and I haven't blogged since January so clearly that goal went out the window.  BUT! I am here blogging today to share something I'm passionate about! And that is SAVING MONEY! And spending the least amount of money on things. Listen, the lower the price of something is, the more I like it.  I was waxing poetic about this subject to a friend on Marco Polo this week and decided that I felt the need to share it with the world. So, world, (or the three people who read my blog) You're Welcome. Sidenote: These are just some of the ways I stretch my dollars and get money back from purchases. Some of these have referral codes that if you join from them I get some sort of a reward, and some don't have codes, or I'm just not cool enough to know where to find them. Use the code, don't use the code, but plea
