Merry Christmas!

We hope you have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! 

Birthday Boy!

Happy Birthday to my sweet little Deacon! How are you already 2 years old? It seems like yesterday when you were just a tiny little preemie. And now you are fun and silly big boy! We love you so much!

Christmas is coming!

We've been busy lately with all things Christmas and getting ready for Christmas. It really is the most wonderful time of the year. So far we've watched, The Grinch, Rudolph, Curious George Christmas, Elf, Home Alone (which became way to violent for my already rowdy boys), and Ice Age Christmas. We've made cookies, and danced to Christmas songs
I had a gift exchange with my MOPS moms. Which is always nice to get out of the house. And I snuck out of the house to celebrate with my mom being skin cancer free. Cancer sucks yo!
We saw Santa twice and the older boys thought he was lame and chose to sit on ATV's and lawnmowers over sitting on the old geezer's lap. Finn was a good sport about it though.

In the upcoming weeks we have a Gingerbread House making night, A bowling birthday party, and Deacon's 2nd birthday!
And on top of all of that I have to make a dessert for Teacher Appreciation day at Everett's school, a meal for a friend who just had a baby, a snack for our ECFE potluck, an appetizer for my husband's work potluck, cookies for a cookie exchange, and a partridge in a pear tree.

We have a Singer Christmas party coming up and a Robideau Christmas party too. And we get to celebrate lots of little birthdays for Levi, Piya, and Deacon. All these December birthdays... it's a non-stop party.


And now a big fat photo dump...

Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving! We are so thankful for so many things. I hope your day is full of all things meaningful and memorable. 

Bouqs - Happy Flowers!

I was recently contacted by Bouqs to receive a bouquet of flowers. Being that it is now super cold and snowy outside, flowers were the thing I needed to brighten my day.
I picked out the Hot Lava roses, because the colors, Hot Pink and Yellow were my wedding flowers.

They arrived Via Fed Ex on a day that I specifically chosen and they were beautifully and carefully wrapped. The flowers either come from an eco-friendly farms in the States or from an active volcano in Ecuador!!

There were clear instructions from Bouqs on how to care and maintain your flowers so they last a long time.

Ordering from Bouqs is a breeze!  There is a flat rate $40 for the Original Size with no extra shipping costs. And an easy 3 step checkout. You can't beat that!
They also offer 15% off your first order for new customers!

I was super satisfied with my arrangement, all the roses opened up and lasted well over a week. It's well worth checking out if you are looking to send a floral arrangement. You won't be disappointed with Bouqs!

Halloween

This Halloween I didn't even bother to go out and buy new costumes. We just used the ones we had from previous years. I'm betting someday they will care about their costumes and will want to pick their own out, but for now they are little dudes who don't care. Our day consisted of spookifying the house, arts and crafts, games and treats at the Blue Note, dinner with the grandparents and trick or treating.

October Photo Dump

Our month of October was full of fun and all things Autumn. Lots of apple orchards and pumpkin patches. And a wedding and visits from family.  It also included trips to the hospital for 2 of the little guys, due to RSV and breathing issues. All is well now and we continue to enjoy this gorgeous weather before that white crap comes.

Big Brother is watching you.
