I can not keep up.. Letting go...

Okay... First to admit. Too much going on in my life right now.  Just treading water now.

Praying for Grammy Lorie.  The last month has been full of ups and downs. My prayers are with her. Robert and Laura have been traveling back and forth to visit to make sure things are taken care of with the family.  Love you Lorie!

So last weekend while Robert was out taking care of Paul and Lorie we had plans on going to Disney on Ice.

Purchased cups for everyone to remember the show!! So much fun!

I was impressed with the show. My first Disney on Ice Experience.

We had a great time and the kids were attentive and interested the ENTIRE show.  Great times!

Fast forward to this weekend.....
This was my old studio:

What you see when you walk into my studio in the dungeon. 

Here is a video post I did when I first moved in my studio...HERE.
Now I am moving out... into the man cave.

I am still in the middle of moving but this is what we have so far:

Slowly but surly we will get everything moved.

So I am trying to finish up some assignments and it is a bit difficult with my stuff in three different places.  But once we are done with the move of my studio it will be all good.  We are moving my space to the enclosed porch at the back of our house because we need more sleeping areas for everyone. We have a stream of guests coming to visit and we really just need another room for a bed.  Moving my studio will allow me to work while the kids are playing outside.  Because I am at the back of the house I will be able to keep an eye out on them, before I was not able to work when they were outside because I was in the DUNGEON and I could not hear anything in that room. (Good for whoever gets to sleep in that room.  You can not hear a thing.)

I am a bit surprised on how much I was able to pack in that little 8x8 room.  I have taken over half of the garage with all my stuff. YIKES.  I think a scrapbook garage sale is coming soon!!!

I feel like everything is turned upside down.  Trying to move the room....getting the house ready for our guests at the end of the month...keeping up with the kids...worrying about Lorie...and the long list of  "OH CRAP" I have to get that done list vs. just the regular to do list I am a bit behind.

I will get it done... I will.  Till next time... have a great time and LIVE for today! ENJOY the little things in life. Enjoy the everyday moments!

Wednesday Madness

Wednesdays at our house are the busiest day of the week. Today was extra crazy... but I was able to get more work done today because:

Image credit: Google images

1. Baby got to attend "lunch bunch" today.  I usually have to pick her up at 11:30 but if she goes to lunch bunch it gives me an extra hour to get stuff done.
2. After school Drew has a play date with some other boys and I call it the "Wednesday Madness" because the host mom takes 7 Kindergarten boys to her house and lets them play till around 5. She is a saint and the boys love it.  I would love to have them over at our house but our house is currently tooo small to host that many boys. One day when we are in a bigger house we can host Wednesday Madness. 
3. Sammie was able to get in a play date today as well.  
4. Then we get home and hurry to get dinner in before ice skate lessons.  We get there and guess what..... no class today.  REALLY?!?   I guess I should read all the paper work... But at least they had open skate for the general public.  So I went ice skating with the kids so they could get some practice ice skating.

This was a picture from last week when we started the second session of ice skate lessons.

So it has been many years since I roller skated.  I have only ice skated a handful of times in my life.  It wasn't too hard ... but man my feet kill.  Mostly the arches of my feet. My feet were hurting so bad that I almost want to cry.  If I go slow is when it hurts the most....if I am moving and skating around the rink I am fine.  But it is hard to skate around the rink when the youngest is going the pace of a turtle.  But we worked it out... The kids were impressed that I could even get out there and skate with them.  They were giving me tips and everything. So much fun... great exercise.  At least it is something right?!?!

But now my back is hurting a bit from moving boxes in the garage and from ice skating.  But I am trying to get my studio ready for some major creating time.  I need to get my supplies ready for a volunteer job tomorrow. I am excited about the adventure and I will keep you posted.  So for now....I am going to sit in the tub for a bit to relax my back a bit.  Hope you had a great Wednesday!  I dread and love Wednesdays.  What do you do on your Wednesdays? Leave me a comment and let me know.  I would love to hear how your day went today!

Till next time...have a great day!

March

I am participating in this:

 

So I will be sharing my lists all month long. Something fun for me to do.

But I wanted to share a card I made using the Teresa Collins Cricut Craft Room Exclusives

So I guess I will star with my Spring cleaning event though we got our first true winter snow storm here in Utah.  But that is okay, the snow does not bother me...I love seeing everything covered in white.  So till next time have a great day!
