May already???

Can't believe the last time I posted was right after we adopted Menolly... Look how little she was! She is growing up quickly.. and loving her Logan more and more.

I have been busy working on some new blankets for Logan.. Trying out the Rag quilt pattern.. and I LOVE IT! These blankets are so much fun to make! I made one for Logan's Bed, and then one for Logan to take to preschool/daycare.

I'm also working on my very first Granny Square blanket... It's coming along and has a little more done to it then this, (about 4 more rows added on since this picture)

It's all so much fun :) We are in the middle of moving right now though, lots of packing and cleaning to do still but hopefully it will all be over by the start of June... I can not wait to live in a HOUSE again.. Apartment/Duplex living just isn't for me. I'm also currently doing some new BzzCampaigns!! No reviews yet, but some things to look forward to over the coming weeks... -Sobe BzzCampaign (should be here any day now! ) -New Private Selection BzzCampaign (Just signed up a few days back!) -Dr. Scholls massaging inserts! (Just signed up today!) All reviews for the campaigns will be posted to my blog so stay tuned for those! Also some will have coupons/discounts etc, so friends will be getting goodies as well!! Not sure in which order the reviews will be posted but I will try and get them up in a timely fashion :)

Our new Family Member!

So we adopted the little Black Lab a few weeks ago!

Here is our little Menolly :)

She is doing great. :) Our family is very thankful to the nice man who gave her to us. We look forward to camping with her this year, and watching her grow into our lives more. :)

Friday Wishing.

So we are all anxiously awaiting Friday. A man out in CJ has a few black lab pups he wants to find good homes for, and has said he will hold on to the last little baby girl for me so I can do all my errands in one big swoop.

The pup is just barely past the 8 week mark, and such a chunk. I have set up a vet appointment to have the pup checked out shortly after I pick her up. Keep trying to tell my son we need to make sure pup is healthy before we can bring her home. He keeps telling me "Yeah we have to take puppy to the doctors to get her shots and make her big and strong!" lol.

Here are a few pictures of the pup.

And pup with her mom/brothers.

Keep your fingers crossed for us. Hopefully by about noon on Friday we will have a happy/healthy new family member.

Snow Ball fights

So While my son's Godmother was in town this weekend, they decided they love the new town, and want to start their family up here! If all goes well they should be moving our way this August... Which is wonderful! They also mentioned they were interested in a Labrador puppy as well.. So we got them signed up for the same litter as us... Hopefully our new furry family member will be able to have one of his/her little siblings around town. How nice would that be?!

Here are a few pictures from this past weekends snow ball fight...

Ah fun times...
The next few months will be busy.. Hopefully we will be able to find a HOUSE for rent out here soon..

I need to update more often...

So Christmas has come and gone and now we are in to a brand new year!

This year will bring lots of changes for our family... Hopefully a new (used) car... A move to either a two bedroom or three bedroom house with a back yard so we can add a new family member this fall..... That's right folks, we're getting a Puppy.

Couldn't resist. :)

After much research we have decided on a Labrador, and after further research we believe we have found the perfect breeders for us. We are signed up to hopefully have our new addition some time around October/November 2012. :)

Logan is extremely excited and keeps saying he wants a black colored pup.. We'll see how he feels in a few months.

For now, there will be lots of waiting until the breeders are ready to begin for this year. Then more waiting to see if the pups take... So exciting!

Of course we will be staying busy with trying to get a different car, and trying to find a home with a backyard for our new addition. We are allowed to have dogs here, but we would prefer our pup to have his/her own backyard to run around in.

I will update with pictures from the Holidays probably tomorrow as hubby is playing his game online currently

Oh Happy Day! Our Little Man turns 4!

So Today is THE day.

Our little Man is turning 4 in just 6 short hours!

Hard to believe that four years ago we were in a hospital room waiting for him to arrive and see what he looked like.




I do want to thank Lizzy for walking the halls with me four years ago as we waited for labor to progress. Your friendship means the world to us, and we love you so very much! I will always cherish those memories, and the hours we spent together as we waited for Logan.

I also want to thank my Mommy for being brave enough to be in the hospital room with us. We love you and we're very thankful Logan has you for a Grandma. Even though we live a state away you are a Major part of Logan's life and always will be.

And the final Person who was there on that day.....


My lovely Husband.

Thank you for giving me such a wonderfully booger headed little boy. (And of course for staying during almost the entire labor/delivery... except for that bit when you had to rush home to pick up the hospital bags ;] ) <3 You two are the most important guys in my life.

And this concludes your yearly dose of sappyness. For those who were there during the Labor/Birth of Little/Big Logan four years ago.

I love you all.

Birthday Pictures to come later this week.

Final Review for Private Selections Foods!

So this is my last review for the Private Selection BzzAgent campaign. I'm very glad I decided to break the products up and try them individually on different nights. I think it helped me with reviewing each item.

The final Private Selection product we tried was the Pepperoni Thin Crust pizza.

Let me start by saying it looks pretty much like every other frozen pizza out there. It has a good amount of pepperoni's on it, and a good amount of cheese as well.

The pizza cooks really quickly and cools down quickly, so if you're looking for something fast this would be it.

**Be sure to watch it closely though as it does turn brown quickly if you're not paying close attention**

Upon tasting the pizza, it honestly tastes the same as most other frozen pizza's. Which is neither good or bad I guess as it didn't taste horrible... It was just okay.

One of those if it's there, sure I'll eat it, if it's not, I wont really miss it, kinds of foods.

I'm on the fence on whether or not we'll be trying a new pizza, maybe one with more crust as the 'Thin' crust does kind of resemble a cracker like taste once it cools.

I'm going to give the pizza 3 stars simply because it wasn't horrible, but it wasn't amazing.

Over all My experiences with Private Selection have been decent and I'm glad we were able to try out new foods. We will be buying the Deserts again and maybe if we ever get brave enough possibly try out a different appetizer/pizza combonation.
