Christmas Lists

The kids have been reading all the new toy catalogs that seem to magically appear in our mailbox around this time of year.  Currently, they are carrying around one that is just brimming with toys they must have.

Connor really really really wants Dance Star Mickey:

 Fisher-Price Dance Star Mickey

He comes with a price tag of $60.  I've tried explaining to Connor that we already have Mickey Hot Dog Dancer:

Fisher-Price Mickey Hot Dog Dancer

but I was told that he only sings "Hot Dog, Hot Dog, Hot Diggity Dog", therefore he is not good enough anymore.

Connor also wants a new Buzz.  I reminded him that he got Buzz for his birthday and barely ever plays with him.  He responded with, "I play with him every day, just not today."

Keira loves Dora.  She saw the ultimate Dora house for a grand total of $70.  Furniture, dolls, and accessories come separatly at $6 or $10 a pop.  She told me that Nana is buying it for her.  I said, "Sounds good to me!"

She also said that she wants a Princess Belle Doll.  However, she refers to both Tinkerbell and Belle of Beauty and the Beast as Belle, so I don't know which one she wants.

Colin has the best list of all.  Out of the entire catalog, he chose....

110cc Four Wheelers 6" Tires Atvs, Black


Dance Star Mickey is looking pretty good right about now.

ROFLMAO!
Sorry, but I am. That's the nice thing here, Ethan doesn't get exposed to all the ads. He wants a T-Rex. He got one last year, but now needs the Toy Story T-rex so his other T-Rex doesn't get lonely. Or a triceratops!

Book Review...and a Giveaway!!!

I was lucky enough to win an ARC of When the Rogue Returns  from Sabrina Jeffries herself! I couldn't wait to read it.  After reading the first book in The Duke's Men series, What the Duke Desires , I was excited to see that this next book was about Victor Cale. In  When the Rogue Returns , Victor Cale is headed to Scotland to investigate a woman, Sofie Franke.  He has his suspicions that this woman is actually Isabella, his wife who disappeared on him ten years before.  He has spent the last decade searching to bring her to justice after she stole the royal jewels and left him to behind to deal with the authorities.  Isabella Cale, now known as Sofie Franke, has built a new life for herself and her ten-year old daughter after her husband ran off with the royal jewels. Are you intrigued yet? Victor and Isa's first meeting was great! Both blame the other for the missing jewels, and both are greatly suspicious of the other's motives.  Despite their renewed feel

Enjoy the little things...

The music filled my head as I drove my car along the winding river road on that dark and snowy night.  I had just left my grandpa's wake and was headed home... alone.....  My husband had the stomach flu, we had moved into our new house the day before my grandpa passed, and I was 5 1/2 months pregnant.  The baby boy inside me kicked along with the song, as I cried and listened to the words. Mama told me when I was young Come sit beside me, my only son And listen closely to what I say. And if you do this It will help you some sunny day. Take your time... Don't live too fast, Troubles will come and they will pass. Go find a woman and you'll find love, And don't forget son, There is someone up above. I've always found comfort in songs... the words of the artists resonating with me through even my darkest times. Lynyrd Skynyrd's Simple Man is one of those songs that just happens to play on the radio at the precise moment that I need a remind

It's the most wonderful time of the year....

The countdown to Hallowe'en begins! Please note this is not the actual number of days until Hallowe'en. The picture was taken two days ago. The house is totally decorated, although I still could use a few more things ;) One of the cool new decorations I bought this year are these Halloween Pumpkin Wall Decals from Kohls.  I love them!  My structured, OCD self feels the mantle is too cluttered, but the spooky side of me just doesn't care. ;) How do you decorate for Hallowe'en?
