Friday Favs [on Saturday]


I had every intention of getting Friday Favs done --well-- on Friday  :) but things kept coming up and it never got done.
Since it's not a secret anymore that Baby #4 is on the way, I can now share a couple of my pregnancy related favs.


They are so comfy to lounge around in!




Maternity Scoop Tank from Old Navy.
In my opinion, the BEST maternity tank.  I also like the Gap tanks, but the Old Navy are a bit thicker, which I like if I'm wearing it with a cardigan that is open.




 The best and hard to find in stores!




I first received a sample of this to use before blowdrying my hair.  I now have a large size ordered.  It takes a lot of the static out of my hair in the winter and leaves my hair very shiny after blowdrying.




Blue Bunny Raspberry Sherbet
Yum!  and no fat!  :)





I don't normally wear eyeliner, but I do really like this light brown color.  And this particular pencil does go on very smooth and doesn't pull.

Umm...   free 2 day shipping or $3.99 for 1 day shipping is hard to beat...   
I've been using it for nearly 4 years and the yearly rate to have it pays for itself so quickly!

Cold hens - Sad me

All three of our egg crates are empty...... Completely empty.... Darn winter only gives us 1-2 eggs a day and I use them up as fast as they roll out of the hen's rump. Someone please help me talk my hubby into 10 more hens! :-)

Family Christmas #3

This was our final Christmas of the year...  

Here are the kids opening their new State sweatshirts from their Great Grandpa..  
he's a good shopper  :)





Audrey and Brooklyn taking shelter from the wine that was flowing that night  :)

Now that all the Christmas get-togethers are posted, New Year's and fun new things coming soon!

Family Christmas #2


The day after Christmas, we got together at mom and dad's with Kayleen's family.  We also got some great "face" time with Clint via Skype.  Here is Audrey giving him a high five!
It's always interesting to hear about his life in Afghanistan right now.



"Hi Clint!"

Christmas in our Home

Decorating for Christmas is one of my most favorite things to do....  Everywhere you look, there are white lights, simple white decorations, greenery and snowflakes







This is our living room Christmas Tree.  Sparkly and Pretty.


This little white box of drawers is our Advent Calendar.  Every drawer gets filled with little candies and a verse for each day.








Our family room is probably my favorite room in the house around Christmas time.  
Woodsy, Rustic and Easy.




The family room is the home of our Family Christmas Tree.  Ornaments handmade by our kiddos are my favorites!





Wyatt's first Christmas  :)

It is December 29th and our home is still fully decorated and the white lights are still on.  We're not quite ready to take it all down yet so we'll keep enjoying it.  :)


Christmas Eve


Another excellent Christmas Eve program was done at our church...   first up were the wee ones.

Sadie and Audrey



The big kids put on a great program

Landon - blue plaid shirt


Wyatt - teal plaid shirt

After the program, we headed to mom and dad's for dessert with the kiddos' two great grandpas.  Then back home for new pajamas, ornaments, setting out milk and cookies and scattering reindeer food.

It was so cold when the kiddos went out to scatter the reindeer food...  they didn't waste any time and then ran right back into the house to warm up.


After the kids were fast asleep, D and I dug in to finally start wrapping all the gifts..  it was a loooong night but we had a good time power-wrapping and watching TV!  :)
