Monday Message: Seeing Your Blessings Through The Tears

Published on by Susie @ Pollywog's Place Blog2 Comments

I had planned to just ‘chill out’ this weekend and maybe work on our next Little House on the Prairie Adventure but lately, things rarely go as planned around here.

Friday had been rearranged for a very important event that didn’t happen because of a HUGE misunderstanding. To say I was disappointed would be a HUGE understatement but this event has been rescheduled for Wednesday, so fingers crossed that everything goes as planned.

Friday evening I had been binge-watching some Fixer Upper when a text came through. It was from Southwestern Produce to let us know that they had rescheduled the veggie pickup due to bad weather… well, that threw a little wrench in Saturday’s plans as I had already scheduled a few other things around the pickup but I quickly got to work a rescheduled things so I wouldn’t have to get up quite so early… yay! I still need to figure out a plan for next weekend as I already had plans for Saturday morning… Continue reading “Monday Message: Seeing Your Blessings Through The Tears” →

This post actually started out as a different post but it got so long that I broke it down and decided to share this part of it with you today! Things have been SO CRAZY BUSY here lately... I can't tell you about everything we've been up to but I will let you know about a few things we have been doing down below. We are so excited about EVERYTHING that is going on and we just can't wait to SPILL THE BEANS with EVERYONE! For now, though I'll tell you about some of our latest adventures here in our little cabin.

A trip to the movies

We took them ALL to see the new Lion King and it was so GOOD! My oldest son was a HUGE Lion King fan when he was little… and I believe he may still be very partial to the original but my younger kids only knew about the new Disney version of the series.

Here’s a trailer for it if you haven’t seen it yet:

Oh my goodness, what a day I've had and it isn't even been lunchtime yet. I actually went to bed early last night as I was just so exhausted. Mr. Awesome had a meeting and wouldn't be home until late so I made the most of the evening. The kids helped me make Chili Dog Casserole for dinner. We made it a little bit different as we just put the hotdogs into hotdog buns, instead of tortillas, and then spread the chili sauce on top and sprinkled with cheese before baking. Mr. Awesome is not crazy about the tortilla version so we decided to give it a try this way and it was a WINNER!

Oh, What a day! Freezer meals, Pinterest Suspension, and No Toilet Paper

Do you hate spiders? Ok, well the itsy bitsy spider nursery rhyme is kinda cute but I don't want any spiders anywhere inside of my house and neither do the kids. This video made me think of how my kids act when they see a spider:

No More Itsy Bitsy Spiders!
