Little Bit of This and That!

By -
We had a great weekend! And the of course the highlight was meeting Chompu, my cousin's daughter!
Kyle and Kelly have been waiting a looooong time for this sweet precious girl and it was so amazing to see her bouncing on their couch, full of smiles!  Of course now Everett has a life long playmate and a new BFF! Cousin Besties are really the BEST! 





Friday, E had his 9 month check-up and according to the doc, he is the healthiest happiest child she had seen all day. He is almost 22lbs and 28inches tall. Such a big boy, but then again his dad is no small fry, so it makes sense.
We went out for Thai food (our favorite) and E loved it too! That's my boy!

I have to share this recipe that I made to bring over to Kyle & Kelly's house.
The Life & Loves of Grumpy's Honeybunch


I sampled it before I brought it over and i thought it was delicious! I love all the colors and pops of flavors! Plus it is uber healthy, so you can eat a ton of it and not feel bad at all! Stop by and say Hi to Shelby and her blog! She is awesome! 


And of course I am thinking of my Grandma Barbara today. She has been gone for two years now, but I think about her often. Last week came the addition of another great-grandchild. 
Little Isla was born to my cousins Chris and Jen! 
7 Great Grandkids now! 
Drew, Levi, "P" (Chompu), Una, Everett, Evan & Isla


We have no plans for Valentine's day. And I'm okay with that. Just hanging out with my boys. That is pretty sweet. 
What does everyone else have going on for Valentine's Day? Anything fun or romantic?

So now with Christmas almost upon us, I wanted to take the last few days to make some Christmas Crafts. This weekend I spied this AWESOME clothespin wreath on Pinterest which lead me to  Hambly Screen Prints Blog . Not only is it a fantastic blog with fun projects, it's also an online store full of the coolest scrapbook\crafting supplies. If you haven't been to Hambly Screen Prints...  GO NOW ! The clothespin wreath was so fun and easy to make!  Supplies you need: Wooden clothespins scrapbook papers Washi tape (or decorative tape) You can buy washi tape at Hambly, Amazon.com, etsy, Michaels or most craft stores) Glue Thick cardboard for circle (or Michaels sells pre-made circle forms) Felt to cover cardboard (although I skipped that step) Decorate your clothespin however you like.

A Book and A Giveaway

As I said I would be doing in my 7 Resolutions, I am reading a book a week. This past week I read the book Precious, based on the Novel Push by Sapphire. I'm sure most of you have heard about the movie based on the novel. The book club that I belong to is reading this book and now that I read it, I am going to give it away. The book was very eye opening, raw. You really don't want to believe that children have to live like this, that this is reality for many children\teens. Incest, rape, abuse, lack of education, lack of everything! I know this stuff happens, but you don't want to believe it. I work at a Middle School, and I look around and wonder what happens to some of these kids when they go home. My heart breaks. It's not an easy read by any means, but it will make you think and feel. If you would like this book just leave me a comment. I'll post a winner on Feb. 1.
