Bogs, Nerdy Glasses & Shhhhh They Won't Know The Difference...

 Last night while I was surfing the internet and facebook creeping I could sense someone standing beside me. I look over my shoulder to find Scarlett standing there wearing her rock band glasses and she says "Mom I just want one more hug". She is just so darn funny lately. After a quick photo session and big hug she was back in bed.

Today I made homemade chocolate syrup. It makes me sick thinking how much money I have spent on chocolate syrup that when I came across this YouTube Video from Pinterest I vowed the last bottle was the last bottle! It was so easy and quick to make. I wish I would have found this a lot sooner. The real test is when the kids get home and ask for their usual chocolate milk. I hope they won't taste any difference. I am even being a sneaky mommy and keeping the old bottle ;)

I order these yesterday morning from Sport Chek and I got them today! They have some fast shipping! I tried these Bogs on in a store and fell in love. Being a smart shopper I came home and found the best deal I could online. I got these for just $3.00 over the shelf price (tax and shipping included) where I tried them on. I think that was a pretty good deal. I will have some more posts on Bogs and Trams as I am waiting another package in the mail. I had a mix up, caused by excitement of a good deal, at another online store but I am turning into a review and comparison of brands....but more on that later!

One Lucky Mommy

I got a surprise tonight from my wonderful family! I feel so blessed to have these three special people in my life and now I get to Brag About it! They make me laugh, they make me smile and they make me feel so loved.

Beautiful Day To Finish Harvesting.

We finished harvesting on this beautiful day!

Beautiful Day

What A Beautiful Day...
I was cleaning up dinner tonight and just loved the way the sun light was hitting everything as it was setting, so I grabbed my camera (Rebel) and headed outside...I took a few pics and then edited them in picmonkey. I see that they have some really cool Halloween edits that I might have to play around with with the kids. I would love to learn a more high tech photo editing software but for now this works great for me!

Its Got To Be Easier...

The kids and I on the bumble bee ride at the fair

With lots of "What are you doing up there?", "Come On..." (husband likes to play this online war game and I like to upload stuff and the two don't really get along) I figured out a way to post my smartphone pics...But it has to be a lot easier! I have to do a bunch of emailing and then uploading and then copy and pasting and more uploading etc, etc, etc. I know by my husbands annoyance he will find me an easier way!

Coming and Going.....Obsessed!

I will not make a comment about how many times I have said I am going to blog and how I need to blog more often as if you read my below post I know, you know, everyone knows that I leave and come back, leave and come back...

Obsessed...that's right! I have been obsessed lately with organizing my cupboards, pinning things to pinterest (way to many things!), making a change from plastic ware to glassware, mason jars (oh I love love love mason jars) and taking photos with my phone and editing them with apps, cooking, baking and making my own homemade cleaning supplies. I am proud to say that I have not bought a cleaning product (ex. glass cleaner, bathroom/kitchen cleaner, furniture polish etc..) in the past 7 months (I think it could be longer...) I rely on my Norwex and vinegar based products.

Instant gratification...I love my smartphone. I have a Samsung Galaxy blah blah blah (I'll have to confirm with my husband) and I love it. It has apps that I just love. For example Out Milk (my grocery app), P Tracker (every girl needs a period tracker), Facebook, Play Books (downloaded the Fifty Shades books and can read them where ever/whenever), Games (to keep the little ones occupied in desperate times...) and my all time favorite Pixlr-o-matic (to edit my camera pictures). Don't get me wrong I love my Rebel still but I love the instant gratification I get when I can take a cute picture, edit it and post it to my facebook page for all my friends and family to see in less than 3 mins! I still pick up my Rebel from time to time but I find editing on my computer to be really slow lately. I am trying to figure out how to post from my phone to my blog. I figured out how to change my blog from "It's okay" to "That's WAY better" so I should be able to start sharing my nifty Smart Phone photo's hopefully soon!

That's my rambles for today....I've been waiting to get an e-mail from blogger to post some Smartphone pics, it says it's super easy and takes 30 seconds, I guess not for me...Pics to be posted soon!

Guess it looks like I'm going to have to do some MAJOR account setting configurations in order to post some smart phone pics or this is a sign to pick up the Rebel and some new photo editing software...Time to get the hubby ;)

Need To Blog...

I really need to blog...I feel like I have no time now that I have been working from home. I need to get my new schedule down pat and make some time for me! I have some great photo's to edit and share. At least I have still been picking up my camera and taking pics.

Must Blog, Must Blog, Must Blog...
