i guess I'm a pluviophile....

i absolutely love the rain!!! especially living in GA.

now, i understand many of you are saying....

"UGH, i just HATE rain!! what are you talking about?"

i get it!! i really do! i mean, there is nothing "fun" about
•mud
•commute
• frizzy hair
• flooding
• cabin fever
but, you have to look past all the faults!
rain in all seasons are great.....

* spring rain*

~just makes me feel peaceful.
~everything is new and the rain helps all the flowers bloom.
~the birds seem to sing a little louder
~with your windows up, napping while listening to the rain on your roof

*summer rain*

~brings out my inner child
~watching a storm roll in
~lightning at night
~playing in the rain
~jumping in puddles
~playing at the park
~the smell of rain on hot asphalt

* fall rain*

~ warm pjs
~ fuzzy socks
~ Netflix marathons
~ family
~ baking
~ soft blankies
~ wet colorful leaves
~ fires
~ comfort food

which explains our perfect, lazy, rainy Sunday. we watched movies and stayed in our pjs all day!!! my grandson watched "elf" with us and actually seemed to enjoy it!! for dinner we made Brunswick stew and baked pumpkin pie!!
it def was the perfect Sunday

* winter rain*

~SNOW!

thankful Thursday

Good morning y'all!! Hope you woke up feeling refreshed and ready to tackle your day cause I know I didn't 😒
Once again I didn't hear my phone go off so, I woke up rushing(ugh, which is the worse thing ever!!)
With Thanksgiving just around the corner, I notice people talking about things they are thankful for. This is great, but, I really wish people could do this everyday.... All year!! Not just in November, ya know??
Today I wanna say I'm beyond thankful for my family!!! If it wasn't for my family, I don't know how I would have made out through so many things in my life!

Me and my big cousin Rikki

Cousins

Me and my youngest

RIP gma Sept 2014

AND I'm thankful for anything pumpkin! I'm making pumpkin pie 🍰 and my house smells delicious 😋
What are you thankful for?
Muahs!

my day got better........

Except being a lil manic 😒 that whole post I tried to do earlier really messed me up. I've prayed and I believe I will retry it at a later day. One reason that makes it really hard to talk about my childhood and my mom is because she passed away just a few years ago. But, I will share with y'all soon. Another reason it's so hard is because not many people know my whole story. When I post it, have LMN on stand by, kk?
Anyways, after I calmed down some... My son, daughter, grandson and myself enjoyed some outside time before it gets really cold!!

I really got to take him to get his hair cut this weekend!!
Meanwhile....karsyn was trying to escape

Then karsyn got to play with Maddie and we even helped him climb a tree lol

I just love my lil family to pieces. This is how I deal with most of my issues. Also, here it is after midnight and I just cleaned my whole house AGAIN!! (One plus side to being manic, the downside is I probably won't sleep 💤 and I gotta babysit tomorrow)
Also, I'm really loving cranberry sprite!!! My recent obsession

Is there anything yall are obsessing over right now?? I'd love ❤ to know!!
Muahs

Terrific (tired) Tuesday

My Tuesday started off really early. I agreed to watch my friends daughter while she worked and my second daughter stayed the night with my daughter.

My 2 daughters and myself

Yea, these two right here were too turnt! I swear they were chocolate wasted!! Lol
Here in Ga right now...... It's fixing to get cold 😒 we have a cold front moving in, but, today was perfect!! Clear skies and in the 70s!!!!! We def took advantage of the beautiful weather. The whole neighborhood is looking fallish(if that is even a word....)

We took Karsyn outside to let him play, he likes to play pretend in the boat... But, everytime d would crank the boat.... My lil boog came right to me and just would hold on to me!!

I really cherish these moments!! He even helped me bake a pumpkin pie 🍰

I love love doing things like this with my kids and grandson....i just want to be close with them and I'm thankful for the fact that I get to spend so much time enjoying my boog!
How's the weather been where you are at??
Muahs!

lazy FHE

Monday nights......i love them!! That's when we do FHE(family home evening)
Ever since my youngest started middle school this year, we seem to be so busy! From academic team meets, football, 4-h, regular school days, church activities, and his"gaming" I really feel like I don't get to be with my baby near as much as I used to!! *tear*
So, Monday nights is really like my security blanket. I'm gonna hold on to these for as long as I can!! Not only do we get to disconnect from the outside world and spend time together, but, it's also a time of learning and spiritual growth as a family.

Don't get me wrong, I love ❤ getting lessons together and making fun treats or baking with my son.... But, I am human and some days I'm really wore out (I know, not an excuse) but, my daughter and grandson have been up for two weeks now... So, we ended up not having a lesson 😢 BUT...

Sloppy Joe's

Gotham

And family 👪 time and love...... Sounds like a pretty good FHE to me!! What did ya'll do for FHE? Or if not, what was for dinner? How was your lil ones day?
Muahs!

baby's first sacrament

Nov 9th 2k14
I got to take my grandson to sacrament 😁
He was looking so cute!

He was just too handsome. So I had to take pics!

Smooches 👄

On the way to church he was excited 😃 he usually cries without his mommy, but, not today!!

We got there at about 940. Got us a seat and things went well. He used the sacrament bag I packed him.....(not until after we took sacrament)

He even helped... Lol I felt very blessed to be able to bring my grandson today. After about an hr, I did have to take him out for a bit

I really cherish all my time with this lil man. He has me wrapped around his finger. The neighbor tried out his Christmas lights and I know Christmas is going to be so fun this year!!

Are yall ready for the holidays? I sure am....i love being with my family 👪
Muahs👄

yard work

We finally got our back yard cleared out!!! I LOVE it!! Karsyn can get outback and play now!! I can sit on my deck and just let him be the boy he is!!
(don't mind his two different shoes!! Lol)

Him and Maddie, my American bulldog, really thought they were gonna catch a squirrel. I told y'all they were bffs!! I wasn't playing! Y'all remember that song off of sesame street??
"anything you can do...i can do better......"

Karsyn

Maddie

How was your Saturday?? Have you finished a big project lately?
