Weekend Update

Friday- Ok, so Friday isn't really the "weekend" yet, I am fudging a little. Friday morning I went to the last session of my Beth Moore "Esther" study. I have liked the study, stay tuned for a book report. In the afternoon, the Osness children came over. We attempted to put all 5 children down for a nap and only successfully got 3 sleeping at any one time. They were all good, though, and I love having the opportunity to spend time with my niece and nephew.

Saturday-Saturday morning Grace came over to play while her Mom and dad packed up a moving truck. We packed up a lunch and took Grace over to her new house (which is beautiful) and enjoyed lunch with our families. I brought the Crocker girls home for a nap and Matt stayed to be some additional muscle. That evening we headed over to the first McCrady-Q of the season. We are so blessed to have such a great community of friends. We enjoyed some amazing steaks, great conversation and a couple of grown-up beverages. Matt stayed to hang with the men and I brought the girls home for bed.

Sunday- We ditched church today. Baby was up a bunch last night, heaven only knows why, and we were feeling like bums. Matt built a pantry in the garage for me. I went outside to see how it was going a large chunk of wood fell on my foot. My bare foot. It isn't pretty but I don't think it is broken, just swollen and a blueish green color. The girls spent a ton of time outside playing, the weather was awesome. I spent a large part of the day with my foot up to keep the swelling down.

Be praying for wisdom in decision making for our family, we may have some big choices coming up. That about covers our weekend, how was yours?

Working on my Domestic Goddess Badge

I looked at the to-do list I made last week and am happy to say I can cross off almost everything on it. It only took me 2 weeks. I think I either need smaller lists or more time. Here is what I have been up to: -I have made 2 loaves of banana oat bread, 1 batch of blackberry strawberry freezer jam, 1 loaf of gluten free bread. -From 12 juiced grapefruit I made grapefruit curd and a pan of grapefruit bars. -My garden is almost completely done, including a upgrade in size. I am growing tomatoes, onions, peppers, potatoes , cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower , herbs, lettuce, spinach , green beans, snap peas, cucumbers, and kohlrabi. -I hung herbs to dry -I have folded massive amounts of laundry...with more yet to do. All washed with my homemade laundry soap. -I recovered the "green monster" which is another post entirely. -I added a sitting area in my bedroom, where I am currently sitting, so that my laptop has a home other than the kitchen table. - I got a new dining room table a...

Solo

I was told by my mother when I was a teen that my curfew was midnight because "nothing good happens after midnight". If that is true at 16, I am pretty sure that "nothing good happens before six a.m" is true for my current station in life. Some may argue that it is always true, but not Annabelle. For the last few weeks, the babe has been up before the sun. It isn't exactly the fault of the whole "fall back" time change, but that didn't help matters. Normally this is annoying, but not really my problem as Matt is the one on call as the sun rises. Alas, Matt is in Korea and I am flying solo, desperately missing my morning wing man. I am not ashamed to say that in the wee hours of the morning I told my not-quite two year old that I was not getting up yet, tossed her some toys and dry cheerios with a sippy and told her to play quietly. I stumbled back to my still warm bed knowing I bought myself about 15 minutes to clear the cob webs from my brain and ...

Feeling Resolute

I am a list person. I don't actually follow everything I write down, but I do write it down. Sometimes I think it is my weird way of feeling like I have my life under control. Not only do I make lists for myself, I make them for Matt. Yes, I know that is obnoxious so I don't always give him the lists I make for him. Yesterday I tortured my husband by making him sit down and make a list WITH me. I do it every year. You see, Matt is an amazing big picture person, but details kill him. Annually I make him sit down and write goals. We categorize them by finance, work, personal, spiritual, etc. It kills him to have to be specific. I keep the list every year and we read it together. This significantly brightened Matt's mood, to hear all the things we have accomplished this year. Our debt is reduced, relationships have been formed and baby #3 can be totally checked off the goal list. This year I am resolving to blog every day. The reason for this is 2 fold, neither of which is me ...
