Just give him a box...

You know on birthdays when the child opens their presents and then only plays with the box it came in? Kai reminded me of that when he kept climbing into the freezer bag. He had a great time getting in and out, and eventually Cam even joined him. Funny boys!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Yah! I love holidays! My boys are home and we get to stay in our pj's longer and eat yummy food. I love the smells in my house when a turkey is cooking! What more could you ask for to have a great day?

My wonderful SIL come to visit this weekend and we got some quality time in the stamping room. It was so fun!

Aren't these adorable? The medallion made with the scallop punch is so fun! I love it! The tutorial is on splitcoast right now.

I can't wait to get my Big Shot! So sad they are on backorder, but soon! The top note die is so elegant - quick, easy and so striking. Love it!

I think Baja Breeze, Kiwi Kiss and Pink Pirouette are my favorite in colors. Who am I kidding? I like 'em all!

All I can say is love it, love it, love it!

Bye Leanne, and thanks for visiting!!! Love ya!

107

This is the number of socks that I matched yesterday. Let me clarify - I matched 214 socks to make 107 pairs. I have kind of been procrastinating matching socks, and when I've done laundry if the mate isn't right there, I've been throwing them in a laundry basket. Well, I needed something to do as an excuse to watch a movie I've been wanting to watch, so I sat down to match socks while I watched the movie. 107. I didn't even know we had that many pairs in the house. And, to make matters worse, there are still about 30 unmatched socks in my basket. Unbelievable! And to think I was going to just go buy new socks and start from scratch! That is how much I didn't want to do the job! I had Noah do 15 pairs as a chore one night, and the next 7 pairs I went to put on boys were not pairs. It made me think of my sister who didn't match socks ever (Does she now? I don't know!) and who always said she had another pair in her drawer just like it. Too funny! I don't think I'll let them pile up quite that much again!

LIfe as I know it...

...is over. Holy cow. Having 3 boys in hockey is going to be a challenge. I'm going to have to come up with some interesting travel conversation. Poor Kai, though, he's the one travelling everywhere with no payoff at the end! The upside is he gets to play in snow that the zamboni dumps before its even really cold outside!

As requested...

My bedroom wall. The words are from a stamp from Stampin' Up!. It says

Together: (to-geth-er) adv

You and Me

lonely no more; with another.

Inseparable. In harmony; in sync.

OMGosh! Guess what I got?

So, my sister and I made a quick trip down to southern Alberta to visit my grandpa. Coming home I stopped in Red Deer because at Pier 1 they had a chair that I have been coveting for about a month. I just stopped to see if it was on sale yet or not. It wasn't. However, the headboard, footboard, bench and table that I also loved was on sale! Whoo hoo!

When I got it home and was unpacking Perry was quite impressed that I got it all in my van! And, do you know what my DH said? "As long as it puts a smile on your face it's worth every penny!" How sweet is that??

If you could buy happiness, it's at Costco for $249.99

Ok, so my house is not a disaster.
Usually.
I keep it as tidy as I can.
Most of the time.
For about the last month or so though, I'd be done cleaning and not happy with how my house looked. The paint is 5 years old, but not super bad. The windows are clean. The light fixtures are clean. I don't get it. Yes, my carpets need cleaned. Always. Whoever put cream colored carpets in the enrtry way, hall and Living room obviously did not have 4 boys. I don' know why we haven't changed them yet. So, afer looking at my house after I was done cleaning and not happy, I decided the carpets needed cleaned. Off to Costco, and hence the $249.99 for a new carpet cleaner. I could have had someone come and do them, but it would have cost the same and I'd have to keep paying it everytime I wanted clean carpets.
WOW!!! My carpets are clean and I walk into the room and just stand and admire them! My house feels clean again! YAH!!!
