Monkey






I love my little monkey. She makes me laugh. She has so much personality that it's bursting at the seams. She is going to be our little trouble maker, and the sad part, is that she is will probably sweet talk her way out of punishment with her adorableness. Darn her. I love being home with her and watching her grow up. I can't believe this kid barely fit into my arms, now is in the 110 percentile for her age. WOW. I love that she is totally into Christmas. She loves Santa, and gets excited at seeing him, Christmas lights, and the thought of opening gifts.
Monkey, I love you!!

Free Free Free

So now that you have read that we have moved, my next plan is to make Christmas cards and send them out with our new address and phone number. Any who, I was browsing the blog community and stumbled upon Shutterfly's deal for bloggers.... 50 free Christmas photo cards! I am in love with Shutterfly, not only do I love ordering my photo prints from them, but I love getting those fun items for gifts such as their Photobooks. I am currently working on book of our DC trip from A-Z. It's fun! I have used them for invites and for Valentines cards. I am also excited for their Mugs, I can't wait to order a few of these bad boys! The sky it the limit when it comes to Shutterfly. I’m sure if you are like me you always look on the back of Christmas cards to see where they were printed, and 90% of them come from Shutterfly, why? Because they are AMAZING and reliable!!

Anywho, I thought I would pass this on because, if you are on a budget like we are this year, this is a great way to save a little cash flow.

We moved!!


WE MOVED!
We went from living in a city of 464,000 people to a town of 5,000. It's crazy. It's a change. There isn't a Wal-Mart nearby,(it's an hour away). We do have a McDonalds, Arbys, Sonic, Subway, Safeway, Bashas, and my favorite store Dollar General. That's about it.
So where did we move?


Here>

Let me zoom in for ya>

Maybe this is a better view. (the mountain in the background is where I took the previous pics)


We moved to Eagar. Aka: Roundvalley. Aka: Home of the Elks (I know, I know, there isn't suppose to be an "S" on the end of Elks, but that's how they do it here....small town style). But seriously, it is Elk country. Look what Tiff, Abram, and I saw walking down the road one day, not one, not two, but FOUR bad boys.


And this beauty is our new casa. I AM IN LOVE WITH THIS HOUSE!! IT IS AMAZING!!! It is straight out of 1968, and it truly is Brady Bunch Chic. I am having so much fun decorating it, I will post those pics later.

A new thing for us city folk is snow. We woke up to a white Thanksgiving. It was really awesome. Tiffany couldn't wait to get her snow boots on and get outside to play in this magical stuff.
The other two said it was too cold, but after a while, they finally made their way out to play in it too. We got about 3 inches that day, and it was awesome. A perfect way to kick off the holiday season!!
So, yes, I am stupid, but I thought that those silly paper snowflakes you made as a kid were for decoration, I didn't realize that snowflakes really look like that!! I was so excited. My husband and kids always thought I was an idiot, but now they truly know I am one!

And I figured I couldn't post the other kids pics and not my little man's pic. He is so cute and funny. I can't believe he is already 18 months!! He has the most killer blue eyes, and a smile and laugh that just make me so happy! He also loves this silly dinosaur and carries it almost everywhere. SO that's a quick update. I have so much more to post, but I am in middle of potty training Tiffany, and cleaning the house, so I best get to crackin since Abram is finally down for a nap!
