A look back...

Hello there dear readers!

As you can tell I have been very consistent with my lack of blogging. Ehh! Sorry!

Here is a look back on the past few weeks....

Jon and I celebrated our 5 year wedding anniversary on October 20th. I am truly the luckiest girl alive... and to prove it, I'll show you what he got me for an anniversary gift.....





















He even painted the GMC symbols PINK! :) He loves me!!!



My oldest girl, Kasey is a senior in highschool this year.. I took her a few weeks back to get her Senior Portraits done.. Isn't she gorgeous!? ... and yes, to answer your question, we do have to beat the boys away with a stick! ;)

My Sister and I took my neices to the Taylor Swift Concert! It was so much fun! I loved watching my 9 year old neice Dayton's face as Taylor came out! The concert was late at night and poor Dayton was so sleepy she actually fell asleep in my lap for a song or two :(!

I traveled to Nashville for my neice Dayton's first competitive cheer compitetion. It was so much fun and I just adored watching all the tiny cheerleaders do their thang! Dayton's squad won 2nd place in their category and also "most entertaining" and "most spirited". She was tickled!


Here is me and her little brother watching her cheer!!



The Christmas Season is quickly sneaking up on us! I love the holidays so much! There is always a little dark cloud hanging over me because I don't have a baby to celebrate with during the holidays but this year that cloud seems a little less dark. I feel very confident that this will be our last year of babyless holidays. We have not proceded with our first IUI as of yet. We have already paid more than $500 to our fertility clinic and we haven't even started any procedures yet! :( BOOO FOR HEALTH INSURANCE NOT COVERING INFERTILITY!! My next apointment is in January and we will discuss when to start the IUI then.

I braved the stores on Black Friday for the first time this year. It was super crazy but very exciting too. I snagged some great deals and have nearly completed my Christmas shopping. I'm sure some of you have been done with your shopping for months now, but i've always been a last minute shopper so I think i'm doing good.

I would probably be able to find more time to blog if i wasn't so obsessed with...... can you guess...... yep.... PINTEREST!! Oh Oh Oh how I love it!
I've never been extremly creative but I'm very guilty of being a crafty copycat! Pinterest gives me millions of crafty ideas to copycat. ;) I've been working on creating a Home management binder... Here is a peek at it...
Iv'e got a page for Bible Verses I come across that I want to look over, Weekly Menu, Daily Goals, Calenders, Freezer Inventory, Freezer Cheat Sheet, A pocket to place bills, A Bill tracker sheet, and a Budget Sheet. I also have pages for all our important house information such as Emergency Phone numbers, Homeowners insurance info, medical and dental info, vehicle info.. ect. I catagorize everything under sections: Home, Daily, Food, Money, Holidays, and Baby --which I don't have yet but I'm working on making pages like a Cycle Tracker, Fertility Budget Sheet ect.

























I hope you have a wonderful Holiday season! I'll post pics once I get all the decorations up! :) I have started but am not done yet!
