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...

Not my fault

The other night we had company for dinner. I had 3 dessert choices, which Matt said was excessive. Whatever. It isn't my fault that he doesn't like cherries and so I had to make flourless chocolate cake with almonds and ganache for him. The baby wanted black forest brownies and I just happened to have blueberry cheesecake on hand from the day or two before. Anyway, our guest was expecting too, and twins at that! It isn't my fault I burned my tongue on the hot-out-of-the oven pina colada cake. It smelled soooo good and the baby said he needed a bite RIGHT NOW. And who am I to say no to a little guy who is just trying his best to grow and get fat? What kind of mother would I be? I spend a majority of time in yoga pants, which I should not be blamed for. After all, if the makers of maternity clothing understood how hard it is to keep pants on a round belly, maybe they would be a little more innovative . And my pants always feel tight...maybe it is the dessert options at my hou...

My life plan

Some people have "bucket lists", which I admire, you know how I LOVE myself a good list. Strangely enough, I have yet to make a bucket list. This totally seems like something I would love to do; I love a good plan and lists make me unquestionable happy...maybe I can add "bucket list" to my "to-do" list. While I don't have myself a handy dandy "bucket list" I do have a well organized life plan. I assume God has some plans of His own for my life and I am more than happy to switch to His plan at any time. But until I see the sky writer/direct message from God, this is what I am going to be doing: 1- Move to Jersey for Matt's job. Ok, so he doesn't actually HAVE the job in Jersey but a plan has to start somewhere. Live in Jersey for a couple of years, home school Eliana and work on getting my parent educator certification so I can practice as a postpartum doula and parent educator. 2- Move back to Colorado. Enroll Eliana at Montessori Pea...
