Oh what a Christmas...

Seems like all I have done lately is run, run, run. We let the girls open their Christmas gifts on Christmas eve around 1 in the afternoon. It served two purposes. One the girls could play with their gifts before we left On Christmas day and two that I couldn't wait any longer. Kalaree loved her makeup, she is trying really hard to get it right. Kezri was all about the chimp and Kami was all over the twins thing wth having both baby Annabells. Christmas morning Santa came. Kalaree love that she got a cell phone. David kind of ruined the fun tease that I had going on but who can blame him, he just wanted to see Kalaree get her cell phone. Kami loved the camera and had it filled within an hour. We then loaded up and headed over to Moses Lake. We stopped in first at my families house and the girls got even more stuff. I got a crock pot and a slow cooker cookbook. I know doesn't sound exciting but it is the one that has the locking lid so I can transport it without spilling it everywhere and is exactly what I wanted. David got me the Sunday tote that I wanted that says "I am a child of God" everywhere on it and a gift certificate to get my hair cut and colored. WOO HOO, no more dingy brown. I got David the George Foreman Grill, which he has been wanting for some time and a pair of lounge pants and the movie "Benchwarmers." Seems so weird to be talking about what we got since this is the first year in 13 years that we actually exchanged gifts. It is really nice to be able to do that. We spent two more days with our family in Moses Lake and now we are back home to our kind size bed, which is starting to look rather tempting. All in all it was a great Christmas this year. I got to spend it with family and I got to see my loved ones get gifts that I know that they wanted. Merry Christmas everyone.

My wish list

Now this is by no means a buy these exact thing list. I figured I would gives some basic ideas and you can run from there. I am really getting into the shabby chic look for my kitchen. As you noticed in a previous post I have gotten a few things but I have a few more things I would love to have. These are just few. I like the white and the decorative look. I am also into anything that would go with my new Iphone. I really could use a case and I would absolutely love a docking station at home with speakers so I could use it here. Plus, my music was lost in our hard drive crash so an Itunes gift card would be absolutely WONDERFUL!!!! Now I also love my Cricut and I have a ton of cartidges that I would love to have. The ones I am posting here are ones I don't have and ones that I would like to someday own. I am puting them in the order, with the most wanted on top. PLEASE DON"T THINK THIS IS AN HAVE TO GET ME LIST! THIS IS JUST SUGGESTIONS OF THINGS THAT I AM INTO RIGHT N...

LOVE CRAIGSLIST

Since the new house has a room for each of the girls we ran into a slight problem. Basically how do you make two beds into three and one dresser into three. So I jumped on Craigslist this morning and found two twin size mattresses for $10 each and then another person had 2 box springs for $5 for both. I also found two dressers, nice ones at that for $20 and $40. So I furnished two rooms for $85. We already have a twin bed frame. So I figured I will keep my eyes open for another twin bed frame and keep the bunk beds together so that we have a spare bed for visitors. YES, I expect everyone to come stay with us at least once, we are the cool people. Kalaree is going to refinish (paint) one of the dressers and the bed frame that we have now for her beehive project. How cool is that. Not only does she now have a dresser but she also now has her beehive project to do. WOO HOO!!!!! I am really quite proud of myself to get all this stuff for such a great price and now I don't have to worry...

LOVE craigslist.

I was doing my usual cruise through craigslist tonight when I stumbeld upon a find. A family in a neighboring town is moving and needed to get rid of their loveseat. Slightly sunfaded is how they discribed it but it was free. Well to my surprise when I scrolled down to look guess what I found.... Yup the exact match to our living room set. It is sunfaded, it even looks purple in spots. But hey ours is not in the best of shape either so who cares. So now we finally have enough seats in our living room to have everyone sit without someone being on the floor or a kitchen chair.
