This and That!--Saturday

Happy Saturday!
Thank you all for looking at my Show and Tell yesterday---I had a lot of fun making that dress---it was I think about five or six years ago. I have continued to sew and I so enjoy it--but with a little toddler, I can't do it it as much as I should.
All the Christmas decorations came down yesterday---I don't know about all of you, but I was not ready for this season to be over--I so enjoy Christmas and all the wonderful things that are involved in preparing for Jesus's Birthday. The lights all over the house made me smile. Look at my bare dining room---it will soon be decorated for Valentine's Day:) I have to keep the chairs around the table in the garage all day and put them there at dinner time--little Kevin likes to climb on them and climb on the table--and it gets hard to even to be able to go to the bathroom because he is quick--so I would rather it be completely safe ---I know it looks odd without chairs, but it won't be for too much longer. They are only small for such a short time.

My sister knows how I love to write everything down and make lists and have notebooks---she gave me this cute little Holiday notebook---so right now, I am adding all the addresses in it that I send cards out too---

Reminders of special people

Cute little Calendar section

Okay, do you remember last year, I made a goal to read my Bible in a year--well I gave it a good effort--but I have to be honest, I did not make it---after I lost the baby---I went totally off track for awhile, and just got too far behind to catch up---I still read my Bible but not like I wanted too. So this year--I signed up to receive emails everyday--and it has the chapters included into the email--so hopefully this will help me do this. I am determined!!!!

Also, I have mentioned many times, I don't *DO* exercises--well, I do walk everyday--and I now have been walking a mile everyday, before it wasn't as far--(and sometimes 2 miles)----unless it is pouring down rain or my kids are sick--I walk every single day--I get my heart going which in turns helps my metabolism going. I actually lost 2 pounds:)...and Little Kevin LOVES the buggy ride. I have to admit, I am feeling better and my waist is looking better too...LOL.

It is super cold outside today---I did my walk and then did my grocery shopping--Little Kevin is now napping so, I am going to put my Roast in the oven for tonight's dinner---I usually do Roasts on Sunday, but I have a whole Chicken for dinner tomorrow instead. I am working on Laundry and getting ready for the week coming--vacation will be over on Monday and Tuesday we have a play date, and on Wednesday Alexis has another Dentist appointment--and in 2 weeks from today My SIL will be here--YAY!
