So much to do, so little time to blog...

...such is my life as of late. I LOVE it though! I am having so much fun getting our house set up. It takes a lot of time and work to get things functioning smoothly though. I've been painting, cleaning and working on curtains. I thought I would take a minute while both the kids are sleeping to update the blog since it's been forever!

I did also decide to brave the black friday shoppers this morning, well at like 9! It was so much fun and I got some great deals. Being in a home that is our own brings with it a sense of desire to start traditions for our family. Tradition #1 - black friday shopping is fun with friends! That's the only tradition I have so far, I need to work on more!





First pic in front of our new home!



I hosted Thanksgiving this year...yes you do see fourteen settings! It was so much fun!

My sweetnessThe living room before we painted. Forgot to take a pic of the fireplace before I painted it but you can kind of see it on the left in this pic.


Post paint! I love my colors. Also that horrible looking gas insert in the fireplace is coming out soon so we can use it as a real fireplace! More pics to come!

New house and halloween update!

It's official...we signed papers this morning! Now we are just waiting for keys...could take a couple days unfortunately. My house is torn apart but most of it is in boxes and I can't wait to get into our new house!
We had a great halloween! Lots of trick-or-treating with friends! The kids had a blast and I already can't wait for next year!
Cousins...Marshall, Lola, Deakan!

Shoveling taco soup before we head out to trick-or-treat
