floundering

as those of you who know me well are very aware, the past several months have been a really emotionally dark time for me and thusly my family. but the past weeks have felt like we're finally coming out of it. until yesterday. brock recieved an e-mail from our land lord that he's selling our home in the next 6-12 months. and because of the market in spruce grove we are in NO position to be able to buy it from him. so again i am sitting with nothing left in me in god's whirling wind waiting for the storm to cease.

anniversaries

well, it's my sister's 2nd anniversary today(happy anniversary amanda!). and it's also brock and my 12th year together. yikes! how did that happen? amazing how the world keeps running by and i never get older, just sexier!

"nothing's gonna harm you"

if you love musicals at all you should totally see "sweeney todd". it really was fabulous. WAY too gory for my Disney violence rated mind, but still such an endearing movie.i will defiantly see it again, and will probably be a quick favorite. could also be touching the hairdresser's heart in me. HA! that'll make you all think twice about your next hair cut! he he. don't worry, i promise not to kill you and bake you for profit.

no time to relax

i know the holiday's are winding down and you're reveling in the post christmas glow. you may even be thinking it's time to relax and chill from all of the holiday bustle.but you would be wrong. come on people! only 32 days till my 30th birthday! get on it man! so much to do to celebrate me. (ha ha)
also i'm off to see "sweeny todd" tonight. he he! so excited. i'll give a full report later. have a great weekend and a fabulous new year!

the gift of laughter

simple mind, simple pleasures. i really hope i always stay that way. he he i got the first season of "who's line is it anyway?". i always bust up watching that show. i love it! and a huge shout out to mich Aden curt. best christmas goose ever! granted it's the only christmas goose i've ever had but it was SO good, and curt put on the best fireworks display. alarielle's first ever and she loved it. i was a little worried cause she hates loud noise and new things but she giggled and yelled "awesome!" the whole time. does a mother's heart good. merry christmas all. i hope it blew away all expectations.

the holiday cheers

woo hooo! i so far(which sound terrible cause i already have so much i could stop now), have gotten my blow dryer for work! oh joy!oh rapture! sounds crazy but i can't afford it and it's soooooo great, so hurray for mommy's and daddy's! and rae i got the BEST royal purple clutch. aw ya! on with christmas!

on the verge

well here we are on the verge of another christmas season. if you're in my house christmas starts today! actually it started in november, but the family celebrations begin tonight!woo hoo!it's our fist year home christmas morning with our kids,and this mom is so excited to have that time to start our own traditions with out kids. i love the family get together's, but you need time to connect and celebrate as your own family too. so here's to a fabulous and blessed christmas season, may god meet you in a new and fresh way this year and blow your socks off whether in a big way or a small one. peace be with you.

4 weeks

so within the last four weeks i have had the flu TWICE, a cold, and now my period. not really the weight loss program i had in mind, but it seems to be working. (ugh). guess it's better than actually being sick at christmas. 11 DAYS PEOPLE! happy birthday Jesus!woo hoo!

home tour

god bless us everyone

( pen you're so hot!)

HAPPY THANKS CHRISTMUKKAH Y'ALL!
