Air mattresses on the floor...
Luggage in every room...
Way too many calories in our bellies...
Running the dishwasher at least once a day {if not twice}...
It's been sheer craziness. I loved having my family here for Christmas, but I am ready for some calm. I ran off to the coffee shop for a little while simply to write this post.
It also doesn't help that I lost my phone two days before Christmas and I haven't seen it since. I'm really praying it's under the air mattresses and such. The plan is to clean the house today and hopefully find it...
Sorry this post is a little frazzled, but that's kind of how my brain feels right now. Here are some pics of our crazy and fun Christmas week...
Homemade gingerbread success!
Peanut Butter Ball FAIL! The chocolate kept overheating on me.
I quit halfway through! Keepin' it real...
New moccasins!
Pretty new necklaces!
*Dahlia necklace {middle} c/o Sunshine Blossoms {from Stacey!}*
Sister and brother love air mattresses.
Scarves galore.
My first sewing machine!
Babies galore.
My new, adorable camera strap {c/o Shey B}
Christmas Eve with hubs.
The first time all the cousins/grandkids on my dad's side have all been together in over ten years!!!
Lunch date with Erin! LOVE HER!
Sister borrowed my Whippy Cake. Then I ordered her one for Christmas.
She is going to love her life just a little more in 5-7 business days!
Oh, and did I mention TCU won their bowl game? Go Frogs!
{I look a little scary here. College football makes me a little intense!}
That's all for now. Pray I find my phone, finish my grad school application and regain my sanity soon. Going to see STOMP tonight. Not mad about it!
xoxo,
Jen

Boy, do I know what you mean. It's wonderful to spend time with friends & family but it tends to get crazy intense and today I'm just enjoying the calm with lot's of tea, good TV and some of my favourite blogs - like yours. :)

I've been REALLY wanting a sewing machine so bad... but they're so darn hard to figure out! I'm almost half-tempted to get a children's one... just do I have something to do little projects on :)
Your posts make me feel lighthearted and happy! I hope you find your phone!
Yea for a sewing machine! I just got one for my birthday last month and am loving it! I just need more time in the days to be able to do all the things I want to with it!
Eeeeep! I love it!!!!! :) We are sewing machine twins!

Looks like a great Christmas- you and your hubby are too cute!
