Becoming Domesticated

So today was a BIG day for me!! I went all out on the domestic front! ha ha!! Today I got dinner started this morning in the crock pot, (this must be the third time I have even used it, but I love it! I need to use it more often...). Then I got laundry going, then the dishes, then I made some homemade cookies!! This time I went for the cookie dough that you can cut into gingerbread men!! It was so fun. I can't wait to decorate them!! This past weekend was a pretty busy weekend. We got our tree up and got some more things done!! I cannot believe that Christmas is right around the corner! only 10 days!!! Wow. anyway.. here is a little picture of our tree.

Flashback Friday!

So, I'm not really sure when this picture of me was taken, I must be 5 or 6 in this picture. I was going through all my pictures the other day and this is one of the many I came across. This one photo just reminds me so much of my childhood though; and how I miss the innocents of it, and how as children we don't really worry too much about the "responsible" things "adults" worry about. The biggest issue is what outfit to put on Barbie today.. Oh how I miss being a child...

Missing My Husband...

Well, today is Tuesday Treasures . And even though my family only consists of my husband, my dog, and me I still treasure them all. And yesterday my husband left again to go on travel. I think I an count on one hand the number of days he's actually been home since labor day. I miss him greatly. But hopefully, after he comes home this Friday, he'll be home for good; well, at least until March I believe. Well, here is my treasure for today. It's a picture that we took last weekend before he left to go on travel. It was our own attempt at a family Christmas portrait. It's not the best one of us ever, but when you only have the use of self timer and a fussy dog, this is the best you get!

My Tuesday Treasure for this week

My treasure for this:

Two weeks ago I had the privilege of accompanying my husband on a business trip to San Diego California! And what was even more of a treasure, Being able to see one of my best friends who lives right near LA.
