4am and I haven't been to bed yet. Yikes! We had our friends come over for dinner, games, and gingerbread house building. Unfortunately 2 of the 4 mini village houses were broken when I opened it. But, luckily, I decided to buy my own large kit this year for myself. Have I mentioned yet that... Continue Reading →
Slowly but surely we have been decorating for Halloween. This year I decided to keep it a little more simple. I use to go all out especially in the dining room, just for stuff to be constantly pushed to the side when we eat or do projects. Let's face it, it hardly ever got put... Continue Reading →
I know I have posted a lot about our new house lately. Can you blame me though, we went through a lot to get here! Anyways, one thing our new house did not come with is a microwave.

I remember when apartment living was a cool thing. Perhaps it still is for some people, at certain places. Not so much for... Continue Reading →
Well, we officially have moved and our house is no longer officially ours. It's a bit of a sad experience. Going from what we have known as home, to this apartment, is not something we foresaw when we listed our house for sale. I am not going to lie, a lot of me is regretting... Continue Reading →
The last 4 years have been a whirlwind. 4 years ago I would not have thought we would be where we are today, having to say goodbye. As I am laying here on the floor, in my bedroom for the last time, my mind is starting to rewind on the memories we have created here.... Continue Reading →
