I should be folding laundry...

The baby is asleep and my wonderful husband is at work... I have a ton of laundry to fold and bottles to wash, but I am doing anything but that right now! haha It has been awhile since I have blogged, but now that I am back at home and not working hopefully there will be more time for this! So I figured I would start off with something simple, but fun!



Things I am LOVING right now :

1. Lysa TerKeurst's Blog (yes this is the link to it!) ---so refreshing, and most of the time I am like " Oh my goodness this is me!"  It has been lifting me up all through the week!

2. Girl Scout Cookies---March 12th was National Girl Scout Day! While they aren't the cheapest cookies they sure are good, and besides my husband always buys popcorn from the Boyscouts, so I feel I am just leveling the playing field!

3. Sundrop---It is now being carried Nation wide..so YES!! that means it is here in Alaska!

4. "Coming Home"--- I have never been the biggest fan of Lifetime shows, but I am loving this show! It lets you see what so many families go through everyday.  I cannot imagine if Boyd was gone for months at a time and being away from his family.  We had a hard enough time being apart for the 2 extra weeks I was in North Carolina.  Boyd called tonight while it was on, I was crying of course, so he said " Don't be saddish..have a raddish! haha I love him!   It is so very humbling to feel like you are apart of the reuninting of a family! It makes me so thankful and grateful to live in a country that is free, only because so many selfless people are willing to sacrifice their time and their family for us to do so! : )

5. Shark Steam Pocket Mop---I have had this since Boyd Thomas was born, but I love not having to drag my mop bucket around or having to buy floor cleaner! Wonderful!!!

6. Old Navy---This past week Old Navy had a "stock-up sale"..and boy did I do just that!! I think this is the first time since moving to Alaska that I have been excited about some new clothes! Also for the past several seasons I have not been very enthused with what Old Navy had to put out, but finally it seems there is a break in the clouds!!

7. Our Hot Tub---While it is not in its final resting place, which is in our backyard.  We have to wait for the snow to melt until we can move it out there; so it is in the garage for now!  It has been AMAZING  to be able to fix myself a blueberry parfait and wind down after Boyd Thomas is in bed! Thank goodness for Craigslist!

8. Sunshine!---While its not a balmy 70 degrees..the sun is out and that means the snow is melting!!!  I am sure we are not out of the clouds yet, they are calling for more snow later this week, but it is a sure sign that "Spring" in Alaska is right around the corner!!

9. Red Box---while soon I am pretty sure I will be loving Netflix and not Red Box...I am loving my $1 movie rentals!

10. Just Dance 2--- I bought this for my sister in law for Christmas, and while most of us were too shy to bust a move in front of everyone else, I knew I "needed" this game!  It has a "just sweat" mode, while I really might not be sweating as much as it says I am at least I am getting some cardio in! This game is also lots of fun with friends!! I have had a little more practice than everyone else, so they are always complaining when I win!  If you aren't into dancing you can always just watch everyone else look like fools trying to dance to "It's Raining Men!"

Alrighty I think I have now procrastinated enough...off to do laundry and other things!
