Christmas Wishlist

The holiday will soon be here as well as our favorite elf! Megan has been asking about out Elf "Marshall" all year long. Not a week passed by that she didn't ask for him. Soon he will be here and I cannot help but look up some things on Pinterest about him. I found some pretty good ideas for his first day back. The idea that stood out was having him come with a package from the North Pole. Jaime and I are having a grand time figuring out what we should put in the package that she will be receiving. I am hoping that someone can ring the door bell and on the floor will be "Marshall" the elf with the package on our front porch and have Megan come out and see what came for her:) To say I'm excited is an understatement, I love that she knows that Santa could be watching her. I wanted to take the time to put a little Christmas wish together for my family. So that way they know what I roughly want for Christmas, I think my family knows me well enough that Im h...

Happiness

As I'm typing this post my 3 year old child had been non-stop talking for about 5 minutes already. I'm surprised she is having time to breathe. She said she has a lot of stories to tell me. Never a dull moment with her. She is either dropping things, saying things that she is not suppose to or acting some sort of skit of something.  I wanted to post some photos and let you all know what we have been up to.   1. For Veterans day, our little family ate some dinner at Golden Corral, there were a ton of people there. Jaime was talking to so many people, some veterans, some Texan fans, and some of his boys that he used to serve with. It was really packed with people but It was not as bad as I thought It would be. Megan and Jaime had fun, we were in a room in the back and it was pretty quiet for the most part. Cotton Candy is kind of  a big deal with Megan now a days, so when she saw a little boy with Cotton Candy the girl was pretty excited to get some. ...

Little Late on the Halloween post(2012)

Well well lets see what we are up to again. I  forgot to write a post up about our Halloween. I know its pretty late but its here:)    It was on a Wednesday, and on those days I have to do my observation hours at school. So Jaime took Megan to daycare where they were going to have a harvest party and I was going to go to school to spend some time there. At the school some students dresses up in their Halloween outfits and they also had a Costume Parade around the school. After I left the school I went to the store to buy some goodies for Megan to give to her in her basket. This year was spent with just Me and Megan, Jaime had to work on Halloween. So the both of us spent the night with my family. We spent some time with my mom trying to open her door because she accidentally locked the door to the bathroom and was unable to get inside due to not having a key. We left to see Jaime and brought him some food but could not stay long because they were also giving...

Its right around the corner to where my moms lives and is in the same city that Jaime works in, and the school that Megan goes to, which is why this home is our first choice. Im praying hard we get this house. Ive always been in love with it.

Halloween Crafts

 I love Halloween. Its the one time of the year you can be any one you want to be.  I have to admit though sometimes people go over and beyond with Halloween. There are some neighbors around the corner that have some pretty scary houses.We have one or two decorations this year.  I always like to make some crafts during Halloween and we finally had some time to do them with Jaime. We bought about 2 pounds worth of construction paper and began to make some Halloween crafts. I went online and googled Halloween crafts for kids and so many images came up. It was such a fun little thing to do with the two of them:) Have you done any crafts with your children? I did some other crafts but they didnt come out so great.   This weekend I will be making some little Halloween treats for my students and for Megan's classmates. I think I am going to be tired at the end of the day but it will be worth it. I still have to find the last part to my costume but it's not go...

This Weekend I....

  This weekend was kind of uneventful and was a pretty low key. Jaime had to work a couple of those days, so Megan and I decided to spend the weekend at my mom and dads house. I went to class Saturday morning and found out I got a 90 on my Mid-term!! Woohoo! I worked really hard for that grade. I studies for 5 days straight and tested myself everyday to see what else I missed. So it was a really good morning so far. Afterwards I went to my moms because Megan had spent the night over.  We decided to go to the movies to watch Brave, Or as Megan calls it, "Red". She calls it "Red" because of her Red hair.I love that movie it's the cutest. We had seen it before but it was nice to see it again. Megan fell asleep the last 15 minutes of it. Megan LOVES the movie Hotel Transylvania and when we saw the cardboard characters at the movies Megan wanted to take a pictures with them. Megan has been asking for some new dolls almost every weekend. She's const...
