Go Hawks!

I can't believe I have yet to blog in 2014.  I think this is my longest drought since I started blogging a little over 5 years ago.  It's just hard to find time even with the girls in Kindergarten, there's always so many things I want to do with that 4-hour chunk of time.  Anyway, here's what's going on.

The Seahawks are going to the SUPERBOWL!  Yay!  I'm super excited.  I've been a huge fan since the early 80s (they started in '76 but I was only 7 and didn't care about football, but came around when I was in Jr. High) and this is only the second time they've ever made it and the first time (2006) they lost due to some bad calls.  Here's a cute video someone posted on Facebook.



We'll be watching the game at the same friends' house we go to every year.  Usually all the women hang out downstairs while the guys watch it upstairs and it's hard to actually watch the game because they're all talking and what-not, and usually I don't really care because I'm mostly just interested in the commercials, but this year is different.  With the Seahawks being in it I really want to actually watch the game plus I really want to experience it with my husband, not in a separate room, so I may have to hang out upstairs with the guys for at least some of the time.  But I think even the women will be more into the actual game this year anyway with the Seahawks being in it, so we'll see.  I bought t-shirts for me and the girls (Paul already has one plus a sweatshirt) so we'll all be decked out.  I can't wait.



GO HAWKS!!!!!!!

A Day in My Life

  It's time once again for the Multiples and More Question of the Week:  A Day in Your Life. What is your schedule like? Do you work outside the home or stay home with the kids?   I am very blessed to be a SAHM.  Our schedule looks something like this: The girls get up anywhere between 7:20 and 8:20, but usually around 8:00.  Lately I've been letting them watch an episode of Dora so I can get on the computer and check email, Facebook, etc.  Otherwise they just play for an hour or so and then we have breakfast. By the time we're done with breakfast (fixing, eating and cleaning up) it's usually between 9:30 and 10:00.  We get dressed, and then we go wherever we're going that day (errands, park, playdate, etc.).  If it's a stay home day, I'll usually do a DVD workout while they just play upstairs and then we'll go for a walk or play outside after. Lunch is anywhere between 12:00 and 1:00, and nap is 1:30 or 2:00 to 4:00 ...

A Very Belated 2023 Recap

I guess I took a bit of a blogging break.  I only blogged three times last year and this will be my first post so far this year.  I just haven’t been in the mood but now suddenly I am.  We’ll see how long it lasts. Where to even begin?  A lot has happened since I last blogged.  The girls are about to turn 16, have jobs and are on the verge of getting their driver’s licenses.  We took an amazing trip to Bryce Canyon, Zion National Park, the Grand Canyon, Lake Powell and Las Vegas last summer.  We celebrated our 17th anniversary and are closing in on our 18th.  We attended some great concerts, did some fun hikes and have had lots of fun date nights, game nights and girl’s/guy’s nights out.  Ok, I guess that’s not all that much but whatever.  So, I guess to start off my 2024 blogging, I will recap 2023: I turned 54 in January. For President's Day weekend we went to Crescent Bar and from there Paul and Kayley went skiing at Mission Ridge and...

Show Us Your Life - Dining Rooms

It's time for this week's Show Us Your Life, brought to you by Kelly's Korner , and this week it's dining rooms. We have a very open floorplan, so when you walk in our front door the dining room is to the right and the living room to the left, with the fireplace straight ahead.  It's basically all one big room.     I bought the table and sideboard at Dania when I bought my first condo back in 2002.  It looked great in that condo, but for this house I wish I had black dining room furniture.  The table and sideboard are the same color as the trim, and then with the white walls (although we finally got one wall painted) it's just so blah.  And like most other rooms in the house, we have yet to hang curtains (not that we're going to hang them in every room, but we have yet to hang any). Looking in from the kitchen.  Need curtains! Looking in from the living room.  Notice the plastic protector underneath, for when the kids throw their sp...
