Thankfulness Day 178:: Hike

Today we went up a ski lift and hiked down the hill.  Have you ever been to Big Bear when the snow is gone?  It's really weird!  Pretty in a different kind of way.  

Then we visited a beautiful cabin decorated to the tee by a former Rams player.  We finished the night with mud masks from the Dead Sea.  After putting mine on it started to STING so bad!  I decided I needed to wait it out and see what happens, that must mean it's doing something good right?
HA!  I took it off and my face was beat red like a heat lamp was on it!  Allergic reaction???

Overall the day was a blast and I'm so thankful!

Today I am thankful for the great group of women I have found and call my friends.

Thankfulness Day 177:: Big Bear!

I'm leaving to Big Bear today and I'm so excited!  I'm going with my Women's Bible Study group and we are just going to enjoy fellowship.   I think I really need this after a rough moving week with the boys!

Today I am thankful an opportunity with just adult conversation!

Thankfulness Day 176:: Big Boy Bed

Please please tell me HOW to keep your 2 year old in a Big Boy Bed when he says he wants his crib back, runs around the room playing with toys, engages older brother in play instead of sleep, and runs down the hall!  Wow what a night!

I also had a scare with Kai as I had to save him during his swim lesson!  Seriously a bad hard day.  Please pray for us and this move.

Today I am thankful that I was watching Kai to save him in the water.

Thankfulness Day 175:: Wordless Wednesday

12 Month Cupcake Onesie on SALE for $14.99!  Makes a great gift!

Thankfulness Day 174:: Furniture

 I overheard Kai today tell Nash all about the move and how it will be great.  He encouraged his brother and told him about their room and all their new friends.  I'm so glad Kai is taking it this well because every other move he revolts!


Today I found an end table for $22 on Clearance.  It's good wood to, already assembled!  That's a good deal right?  I still need a coffee table and maybe more storage items but we are getting there! 

Today I am thankful for great deals to furniture our place.

Thankfulness Day 173:: Bruises

We are still getting settled in.  My husband has had to work everyday with no breaks so I've done all the moving and I'm all banged and bruised up.  Seriously I hurt and I'm looking forward to being all moved it!


In other news...they delivered the wrong rug to me!  However it was my colors and I think it's a bit bigger so I decided to keep it!  I told them about it and they said my next rug will be discounted.

Our room is a disaster but the boys room is ready to go and livable.  Isn't that how it always is?  Kids first and then us. :) 

Today I am thankful we are FINALLY moving out!

Thankfulness Day 172:: Condo

As I unloaded box after box and had to walk them to the condo I realized that the proximity of our place is very close to the street and it could be MUCH worse!  In fact I was praising God that it wasn't farther and realized how very thankful I was that this place was  in such a great location.  I get to have the kids playing right out front of our condo, it's not too far a walk from our parking space (it's set up like apartments), we have no one on the right side of us, my soon to be good friend Christy lives across the way with her three girls, I have a screen on my door, my neighbors told me I could just walk in if I needed anything, AND there is a 16 year old girl who hosts a kids "Jesus story time" outside of our condo!  Does it get any better then this?

Well maybe it does but I think this is just what I needed.  We will be officially in probably tomorrow or Wednesday. :)

Today I am thankful for all of the above!
