51/52- Last week of work and the Nephews come to IN!


 Wahooo! This was a GOOD week! It was my last week of work for the year, and Christmas party in your lesson week. It was a happy stress free week!

Tuesday I had concert #4 of 4, and my last one for the year!!!!!

 My neighbors daughters have been cleaning out his house, and putting stuff outside in a free pile. I was outside chatting with them and saw storage containers in the free pile. So I asked if I could have them, and they said yes, So I got a TON of containers. This picture is actually the second time I got containers. I don't even know how many I got but it was double digits.I am going to be SO organized!


 There was lots of washing containers, and then after some dried I decided to use some of them for my Christmas decorations. I took my tree ect down before I left for home this year and it was a brilliant idea. I will totally be doing this every year now. It was so nice to come back to  a clean house and not to have to spend my vacation taking down christmas decorations!
 On Thursday, my last work day of the year, I celebrated by getting an eye exam. #Adult
 Friday it was finally time to head home to the farm and guess who was there! Lovemuffin and Snugglemuffin!!
 4 hours in and i tripped on a long wooden train that my nephew had been playing with. It hurt SO bad. And still hurts a week later. Thankfully it's better, but not healed yet. And it was my bad knee, the one I had surgery on, because of course...
 Dad read from Luke 2 and then we opened presents!
 I just wanted a nice picture.....
 Fake smile and blurry...
 Lovemuffin got a ride from Nana in the fancy convertible high chair that I found at my neighbors.
 Sunday morning post church at Nana and Grandpa's!




 This is basically the best we got. 

 Proof that my SIL was in fact there! We are both sporting new Christmas shirts!
 Lovemuffin is such a sweet little snuggler. And patient! Not most almost 4 year olds will sit quietly with someone to listen to adults. But he will!



 Sigh.............


 Mom and I after church on Sunday. Apparently standing by windows wasn't a great plan for her glasses in the picture..

 Saturday night I was beat, and knew I had to get up early for church, so I headed to bed BEFORE the nephews did. I was in the kitchen telling Lovemuffin goodnight and I picked him up to hug and kiss him and he actually laid his head on my shoulder and stayed there for several minutes! Now what you need to understand is that he is an awkward hugger. You hug him and his body goes stiff as a board and he moves his face away from you. It's not that he doesn't like it, it's just somehow that is how he hugs. So when he laid his head on my shoulder I was shocked!
 We stood like that snuggling for several minutes and i realized sneaky Nana was taking our picture. Also please ignore the hair situation, I had been laying down on the recliner.
Such a sweet little Lovemuffin!!

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...

Book Review: The moments you were mine by LJ Evans

  Once again I was lucky enough to be on the ARC team for another book by LJ Evans. Since I have discovered LJ she has become one of my top 5 must read authors. LJ’s books are like Christmas Day. Or your birthday if you’re like me and obnoxiously celebrate both. :) You count down the days until it happens with great expectation and excitement and then it gets there and you almost don’t want it to be there because then it will be over and you have to wait another 364 days for the magic to come by again. Thankfully for all of us LJ writes more than one book a year so we are all #blessed in that aspect. I’m always super excited to get and read her books, but it’s a mixed feeling of not wanting to start reading it because then it will be over, and I can’t wait to read it and see what happens. Oh the struggle of being a book lover! I had some FEELINGS over Parker and Fallon. I felt like they were real people and at several points I wished they were real people so I could take t...

Life in Phone Pics

 Can I just say how much I appreciate the fact that my new phone takes so much better pictures than my old one?! I have been using my phone for almost all of my pics! And bonus, no purple hair! Above is a new dessert I made. A Smores Cookie Bar. It was yummy. I had some and then realized I would eat the entire thing if I kept it. So I gave 90% of it away to my students. This just cracked me up. Last weekend when I was elevating my feet I obviously had the lights off and yet my toes were so neon pink that you could still see them in the darkness!  My toes weren't the only thing pink on my body. My sunburn was of an epic proportion. now it has started to peel. Everywhere. Even my arms. yuck. I'll spare you from that! Oh well, at least my hair looked cute here!  Yes, I am really showing you a picture of my cabinet. Last night I decided to totally move all but one of my cabinets. Erm. or rather the insides of them. My dishes and glasses used to be in th...
