So Very Thankful

Now that Thanksgiving is over and my house no longer has pumpkins in it (can I get an amen!?!?, I was so sick of pumpkins) I just thought I should list a few things that I am so Thankful for this holiday season:

My best friend and husband, Dustin
My 2 precious kids
The rest of my wonderful Family (both born into and married into)
My amazing Friends
My growing Faith, in my awesome God!
My beautiful house
Ramsey's school and teacher
Bryson's school and teachers
Black Friday Sales (with my mom, sister and friends)
A clean refrigerator
The trash pick-up on Saturday
My cousins and uncle for driving in to see us
My Grammie for coming down from Amarillo
Restaurants, I'm sick of cooking
Dish gloves, my hands are so chapped
The Dollar Tree
The Magic of Christmas
The return of Trevor
The rest of the holiday season!!!!!

Wedding Weekend

We just returned from an amazing weekend in Round Rock. The wedding we attended was quite an event.....very classy......and we had so much fun dressing up and pretending we were high class socialites for a night! Plus, it was our first Jewish wedding so that made it even more fun for us. Beautiful Bride. Happy Groom. Great Food. Free Drinks!
Special thanks to Lolli and Pops for watching the kids both Saturday and Sunday nights. They had a ball hanging out with you guys and I know they are looking forward to coming back in a few weeks. Get the hot tub ready! :)

Behind Closed Doors.......

At any given moment you can walk into my house and it will be somewhat "neat". BUT, behind closed doors is another thing.....we were out-of-control unorganized around here.
so, after searching for Dustin's car keys for an HOUR, yes a full freaking hour, on Sunday night I decided I had had enough of the clutter.

here is a sample of my dirty laundry

Hopefully the towels in this cabinet will move soon......I am planning on adding some shelving to my laundry room and putting them up there. That way, the kids have a true "craft cabinet" that all of their crap, ugh stuff, can go in.

Halloween in Pictures

These are totally out of order but here is a glimpse into our Halloween night. We had a BLAST Trick or Treating with the cousins and Dominic (one of Ramsey's boyfriends from school).


How cute was this couple who dressed up as Woody and Jesse! Fun!

This one is for my parents.......it's the whole Snoopy gang! So cute!





Bryson held his ball in one hand and his bag in the other for most of the night. He loved trick or treating!


We had 2 SWAT members with us last night so we felt safe!


This could seriously be the cutest picture EVER!




Before we headed out TorT'ing we went to 2 Halloween parties and had such a good time meeting new people and catching up with the old 'hood bunch! I am not the biggest fan of Halloween but last night may have converted me. Our neighborhood goes all out for the holiday and it was fun to see it all. The kids had a blast so that made it even more fun for all the adults. Now that it's over, it's time to start planning Thanksgiving and then CHRISTMAS!!!!!!
