Keera’s birthday isn’t until Christmas Day, but just like last year my sister can’t be here to celebrate with us. She’s spending Christmas with her family, and I understand how it is. We are all adults and we’ve each got our own things going on in our lives, just the same she’s bummed out she…

Singing, beading and eating oh my!
This afternoon instead of dropping Zaden off at preschool like we normally do, we all went in with him. His teacher told us that today the kids were going to have their Christmas concert. There was a sign up sheet last week for what snacks each parent wanted to bring, and it was our job…
Our Charlie Brown Christmas tree.
Tonight we went to go see Santa, yet again because who only sees Santa once a year? Lol certainly not my kids, it’s not something that I intentionally did. Keera and Zaden went to see Santa with me at my work Christmas party, then once with their grandpa and finally this last time with me….
5 types of annoying people you see at your kid’s Christmas concert.
Tonight my daughter had her school Christmas concert. It’s her third Christmas concert since she started school, so she’s just starting to come out of her shell. I was really looking forward to going to watch her sing. Except when we got there after we had found a spot, it was nearly impossible to see…
A sweet treat.
Well it’s that time of the year again, themed cookies…the kids and I love these. I know that you can buy these cookies year round at the grocery store. Heck let’s be honest I could probably get the recipe out of the one of my many cookbooks, but the thing is because I only buy…
Staff party for the kids.
Tonight my work was having a Christmas party for the staff’s kids, age 0-12 years old. I was told that the party would start at 6pm and go till 8pm, that they would provide snacks, a magic show and even a free picture with Santa. According to my supervisor the company has three Christmas parties…
Girls night.
Zaden went to his grandpa’s house after playschool today, and he’s gone for the night. So we decided we couldn’t just waste our boy-free night at home, and since it’s Wednesday we thought we’d get a little wild LOL. We wanted something sweet and cold as a treat, so we headed out to Marble Slab…
Spacing lunch.
Do you ever find yourself watching your kid(s) and think “wow there’s something I do/did, there is a little piece of who I am and my personality”. Today for example at lunch, I heated up some leftovers for Zaden and gave him some milk to drink. Then as I was getting Emilee’s lunch ready, and…
Dyeing to boost my confidence.
It’s no secret that for most women, getting their hair done usually gives them a confidence boost. After the last couple of months as of late, I’ve been feeling pretty down about myself. It’s nothing in particular, I just got caught in a slump of not feeling beautiful. It actually really crashed my self-esteem, making…
I finished my laundry room.
I’ve been thinking lately about moving house, so I’ve been trying to tackle the clutter. This is another part of my laundry room, it’s right near the bottom of the stairs. It’s the first disaster you see when you get down to the fourth level {our basement}. As you can see most of it is…
