Say it with me y'all ... "Let It Goooo!"

One of my favorite blogs to read lately {well, for some time actually} is We Are THAT Family . I'll be honest it was the name that caught my eye. Because often we are "THAT" Family too ... Kristen is open & brutally honest. I appreciate that. I also fully appreciate the values that her family holds dear. Of course after "Black Friday on Thanksgiving" and now CyberMonday, this little post couldn't have come at a better time. 

http://wearethatfamily.com/2015/11/10-things-our-kids-dont-need-this-christmas/

What really hit home for me ...

#2 ... I've always felt guilty about not doing ANY kind of advent calendar. But we {seriously} do discuss the TRUE MEANING of Christmas on a daily basis!️ 

#4 ... We have NEVER {in 10 years of Christmases} invited our Littles to write a Christmas list {honestly it just never occurred to us}. And they are always OverTheMoon excited for their special cups {a yearly tradition starting with bottles or pacifiers}, organic applesauce/veggie pouches, 50¢ LED fingertip lights, colorful socks, etc. Gifts are about KNOWING your Children & what they will truly appreciate! 

You don't need to set {& then BLOW} a huge budget for Christmas presents. Of course, some years we aren't as strict & structured ... as a matter of fact this year we kinda did blow the budget {albeit not much though!}. Our Littles want to learn to sew "on their own" so badly and after being advised of a great sale {plus coupon} on a Janome portable, I bit the bullet and purchased ONE for them to share. We also picked up tablets for them during BlackFriday sales ... seriously though, the tablets are for SCHOOL {fun fun}. 


What do YOU do to stay in budget? Or do you have one ... ???  ♥

SergerPepper Everyday Tank: My 1st Pattern REVIEW

Merry Christmas! I do hope that your year has been Blessed and stuffed FULL of Laughter & Love. 2014 has been kRaZy {to say the least} for my HappyLittleFamily {HLF}. And with Ruffles’ 5th {FIFTH!} Birthday taking place in the midst of the Holiday Season -simultaneously with our trip to WDW {!•Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party•!} , a Family Christmas Party and our church's Christmas Concert -and this was all in ONE  weekend!- on top of HLF's regularly PACKED schedule, this Mommy is one busy Lady... and that brings me to the subject at hand. {GEEZ. Can you say “Longest run-on sentence EVER”?}

Recently I signed on with Denise of DIY Crush to be a pattern reviewer. I have discovered that in my busy life it is helpful to have a reason {or deadline!} to make me sit down & sew. Besides that, I love testing patterns {and sharing my results & opinion with others} so why not try something new? Granted I was supposed to have finished and turned in my review a few weeks ago...but who's counting right? I’m only joking - if you know me then you know how I despise being late. Being late makes me gRuMpY {FYI, I stay gRuMpY a LOT lately!}.

The 1st pattern I have been asked to review was the Everyday Tank: Top & Dresses by SergerPepper. I just knew we had to do it because living in NE Fla means Shorts, FlipFlops & {YES} TankTops year round!  The Everyday Tank, Top & Dress {heretofore referred to as The ET} looked like something we could have fun with & when I saw the "BEGINNER" level I was sold, HaHa! This pattern was published in PDF form {my personal -and absolute - favorite}. The ET comes in 3 lengths {Top, Dress & Maxi}, has some very cute side detailing and optional pockets {something I have recommended in almost EVERY pattern I've tested, HaHa!}.

How CUTE is this?¿?

This was my 1st 'foreign' pattern {written using the metric system} but this tutorial also includes the imperial system...& I learned that Americans use the "Imperial" system. I never knew that until I read this pattern! Irene of SergerPepper did a fantastic job using both measurements while keeping the tutorial pretty clear & concise. She also made sure to repeat important tips and crucial steps. I am a huge fan of up-cycling and  Irene gave excellent instructions on how to make your ET using an existing garment.  I did up-cycle but due to the largeness of the existing garments & the smallness of my Ruffles, was unable to use the tips. Bummer. Next time though...

The ET tutorial offers SO MANY different tips & tricks! Choosing a style, picking your fabrics, cutting your fabrics, choosing measurements, sewing with knits, using your seger or just sewing machine, binding techniques, hemming {& more!} but the tutorial was laid out in a way that isn't overwhelming. Sometimes too much is just that - TOO MUCH. In this instance it isn't excessive because all the information is helpful & easy to find. The ET is listed {classified?} as a BEGINNER level & I would agree. I recommend reading the ENTIRE tutorial at least once through before starting though!

I did not use my serger on this pattern. In fact I used my "never fails me" Brother 'Project Runway' Limited Edition BlackFriday WalMart Special! It only sews a straight or zig-zag stitch. For knits I will often loosen the tension but that is the only adjustment I made.

Had I thought ahead, I would have tried laying the striped fabric diagonally for a more feminine look. Ruffles LOVES it though, so what more can a Mommy ask for? I would love to try a tank for Robot & I have plans for at least one dress-length version for Ruffles {I'm a sucker for a cute knit dress!}. ♥

GottaRun, ByeBye Y'all! ☺️

Duggar Family Goodness

I am a HUGE fan of the Duggar Family. I absolute Love watching the show, reading/listening to their interviews and I hope to pick up some of the books & Children's literature that they have worked on as well. My SweetHubbs & I share the same core values as the Duggars ~ from Christianity, Politics, ChildRearing, Modesty {only we aren't quite as orthodox}, Financial Responsibility {though we certainly aren't as disciplined!}, Education {HomeSchool ROCKS!}, among others.

I always feel uplifted, positive & encouraged after watching an episode of 19 Kids & Counting. And my Littles Love watching w/ me! Ruffles now Loves to quote me {quoting Mama Michelle} "Practice makes progress".  ♥ 

Tonight, while on FB {checking notes in a 'testing group' for an upcoming pattern} I saw on the sidebar a link for Duggar Family Blog: A Blog About the Duggars. I clicked on it & was excited to find a site NOT affiliated w/ TLC. This blog is run by two seemingly sweet Ladies & stays pretty up-to-date. {I remember a few of the Duggar 'Children' saying once that they were unable to have FB accounts because they were ALWAYS shut down after being reported as fraudulent/impostors ~ how funny! It's probably in their best interest anyway!}.

Anyhow, I continued on over to the actual blog just to check it out ~ & was pleasantly surprised! Not spammy or idol worshippy. Just a nice uplifting blog that keeps the general public abreast of the IMPORTANT {i.e. we aren't weirdos for wanting to know about it ;) } current events in the lives of all things Duggar-related.

I also came across this !'GIVE•AWAY'! ;) The Original Duggar Family Blog in conjunction with Build A Sign is giving away a $25 GiftCard! You should go check out Build A Sign  & then go enter the giveaway :  http://duggarsblog.blogspot.com/2012/06/giveaway-prize-your-choice.html  ♥ 

Missing Vinnie

Well . . . We made it. I thought for sure that 2013 was going to be better than 2012. Easier maybe ~ more fun, more laughs. I didn't anticipate January 28, 2013. Never would have guessed that you were going to leave us. I needed you. I knew it, you knew it. We had Robot's big surgery coming up. I had {still have} gardening & other homemaking and LIFE questions to ask. There is a 4yr old little SpitFire that NEEDS her Twin SpitFire Vinnie. It kills me daily how much she misses you. My LittleOnes have no closure, their Vinnie was just ~ GONE. And it hurts. Oh how it hurts their little hearts that they couldn't see you. They couldn't say "GoodBye". 

I can't even begin to imagine what they must be going through. To be so young and lose someone so vital to our Family ~ and NOT get to say GoodBye. Due to illness & schedules we made it to the hospital only twice during the 7 week ordeal. On Christmas Day & my Birthday. The four of us drove out to the Hospital together. Then the looks of pain & even betrayal in their eyes when they weren't allowed into the ward . . . I hope I lose those memories someday. 

On the other hand, I have 3 wonderful memories to cling to {painful though they may be}.
1.  After Thanksgiving {maybe 2 weeks before she got sick} the Family & I went out to the Farm and spent some time chatting with Vinnie & Papa. Vinnie & I talked and talked {as we always did} for well over an hour. We talked a lot about my sewing. She had never quite 'gotten the hang of it' & she wanted to know what I was learning and doing & even asked me to make some new curtains for her LivingRoom. I was honored! She passed her Mama's sewing machine down to me and we decided that I would come back 
and pick it up in the new year . . . yeah ~ that hasn't yet happened. Maybe 
someday soon. ♥ We just shared some wonderful fellowship and {as usual} I learned a thing or two.

2.  On my Birthday {2 weeks before Vinnie left us} I got back to Gainesville for a 2nd visit. She was awake this time {unsedated} & lightly restrained {because she wanted to break out ~ hard headed Lady ♥ }. 

Vinnie was upset & panicky ~ she absolutely DESPISED for her Grandchildren to see her in less than 'perfect' condition. I was so Thankful that I was able to soothe her and then talk to her. She couldn't speak due to a trache {that drove her bOnKeRs ): }, but I was able to understand a few things that she attempted to tell me. I told her about what the Children were up to {we had just signed Robot up for Piano & Ruffles for Ballet} and I even told her the secret about Hubbs' new job. I figured Vinnie deserved some Happy news - and she had been waiting to hear it! At one point during our visit she looked away from me for a moment. When she turned back, I saw the most heartbreaking expression in her eyes. It was bothering her again ~ that she wasn't perfect, and she so desperately wanted to be HOME. I did something that I would have NEVER in a thousand lifetimes have imagined myself doing to this Strong, Vivacious, Independent Woman. I cupped her face in my hand and shushed, cooed & comforted her as a child. I cried with her and told her how very much she was LOVED and that we were Praying & rooting for her to COME HOME SOON. {The prognosis was positive at that point. We were looking at another month or so to have Vinnie back in her home.} I kissed her goodnight, walked out into the main hallway . . . & cried like a helpless child. 

3. The Last Day. They called us that morning - said Vinnie had developed blood poisoning. She was crashing & had very little time left. I told my Littles & held them while we cried. I called one of my Sisters to tell her and then arranged our drive over to Gainesville. We got dressed and then waited on Hubbs & AuntSister to arrive. At the rehab hospital {ironic right} we only had one chance to visit because there were so many Family members & Friends rushing over to say "GoodBye" {she was Blessed}. But it was a GOOD visit. Our Papa was there, holding her hand and AuntSister & I joined him. Vinnie was awake & aware of her surroundings and visitors. ALWAYS a Blessing. 
AuntSister was 9 months pregnant at this time & we got to tell Vinnie some wonderful updates about BabyB. The nurses lowered her bed waaay down so she could see 'him' & I told Vinnie how much I would miss having him in there because when AuntSister laughed her belly shook like SantaClaus. Then {somehow} I made her laugh and Vinnie got to see the belly bounce ~ & she chuckled! ♥  I Pray that to my dying day I will always see the expression on her face as she 'talked' with us that morning. It was so priceless ~ full of wonder, awe & love at what was happening with the Families that SHE helped to create. 

I fully believe that Grandmothers are one of God's truly GREATEST GIFTS to mankind ~ apart from Jesus & Salvation of course.  (O; I have been extremely Blessed in my lifetime to have been Loved {& Loved WELL} by quite a few of them ~ 6 to be exact {with 2 still on this Earth}!  These past 12 months have been . . . difficult, harsh, lacking, painful, empty . . . to say the least.  I do still need my Vinnie, I was only just beginning to learn from her. At this point we 
still haven't figured out the "how" of getting on with life without her, but I know that by just living our day to day ~ day by day ~ one morning we'll wake up and realize we've done it.  We Love You Vinnie & Miss You ~ Daily.

Weddings VS Marriage {Or 'Letting Go of Bitterness'!}

I decided to stay up late tonight, to hopefully get a bit of progress made on Ruffles' Halloween Costume {I did}. I found a short series on Netflix called 'Say Yes to the Dress:Randy Says'...usually 'SYTTD' leaves me feeling quite envious over the 'lack' in my Wedding Season {yes, even after almost 10 years}. Tonight however, I am Grateful. Grateful for a Husband that LOVES Me Endlessly & Spoils Me {as much as he can}. Grateful for another reminder that God STILL answers Prayer {mine yesterday was to erase lingering bitterness I carry in my heart...}. Grateful that in less than Three { !3! } Weeks, I will get to celebrate 10 Years of Marriage to the Most Wonderful Man that 'I Never Knew I Always Wanted'...even if we don't get to leave our little town to do it~I LOVE MTB TREMENDOUSLY. And I am GRATEFUL. ♥

I have come to grips with the reality that the 'family support' just wasn't there. I had no guidance on registration, planning, The Dress...anything. Okay~No Biggie. So I plan to BE THERE for Our Girl. I've watched other Mama's and 'studied' the Wedding Seasons of local Brides in recent years. 'Oh! That's how it's supposed to be done~Gotcha!'  Okay, that may sound bitter or sarcastic in your mind, but Seriously~I understand the 'why'~Even though I have two Mothers that Love me, neither of them got a Wedding at all. {In fact, we're still trying to convince our Daddy that he needs to 'Marry Mom RIGHT' one of these days.} So technically, they had no guidance to offer...

I have come to accept the fact that we had EXTREMELY limited funds to finance a Wedding. In fact, we I managed to 'DIY' the entire day for about $3000. That included my dress. {Side Note~Not only was that BEFORE Pinterest, but I didn't even know how to use the internet back then!} Yes, we both had full time jobs. Yes, we were given a few pre wedding gifts to use accordingly...but I had a Future MIL that was very ill and spent much time in hospital...40 mins away. And in the six {eight?} weeks leading up to the Wedding, she did not leave hospital due to a series of massive strokes that created much damage. We felt our time was much better spent with her. Sharing meals, sharing conversation, watching television, watching her sleep, keeping track of her care & well being. Driving 40 minutes one way {twice a day, 4-6 days a week} plus eating dinner can REALLY add up. So...there went our ''Last Minute Details'...'Fresh Floral Arrangements'...'Reception Refreshments'...'Honeymoon Funds'. ~And I wouldn't have it any other way. D knew that she was Loved. She knew that she was Cherished. And THAT is worth more than any Vera Wang Dress, Gorgeous Choreographed Ceremony, Rocking Reception & Fancy Honeymoon. Hands Down. Any Day. 

Still having a little trouble with the pictures though! { !-LOL-! } The. Pictures... Seriously...???...I just have no words to describe the 'awfulness' of that debacle! I say this jokingly now, but it actually took many years for M & I to get over recover from that experience. We met with {and paid most of the package price to} our photographer before we were actually engaged. M proposed in February {so romantic~but another story!} and it took until the end of August for the photographer to actually keep a date {aka NOT stand us up!} and do our engagement session. We were rushed. In our work clothes...and covered in mosquitoes. In our pictures there are literally mosquitoes feasting on us! Our package covered the Rehearsa & Dinner {he didn't show up}, PreWedding Prep {nada}, the Wedding {got that}, and Reception {got a few traditional 'corny' shots}. We celebrated our 1st Anniversary before we ever saw the proofs from the Wedding Day.  It took over three and a half years { !-3.5-! } to get our Wedding Album. We just took it out of the box {to display} this Summer. We really don't like to look at it~is that Sad? But our Kiddos love it. Bless Them.

But, as I stated before: Tonight I am Grateful. SO Very Grateful. And Yes~I would do it all again to marry M. ♥

My Dearest Little Loves

Sept 27, 2012  {12:05am}

Today was NOT A 'Great Day'. I was working on Sisters' 1st room {painting the closet} & ran out of paint about a minute too soon~literally. I couldn't get Brother to CON. CEN. TRATE. on his SchoolWork & even had to give spankin's at one point. Y'all were just all over me. All. Day. Made me understand why your Oma would 'change her name' all the time when I was growing up!  I needed some ALONE time. Some MOMMY time. A BREAK. And a Creative Outlet was in order...

I had EVERY intention of making bows tonight. We have vacation in 3 weeks...we are going to Disney World & have PROMISED you two a visit to Mickey's Halloween Party. Problem is~we have NO $$$ to buy tickets!!! I have an order to get out that will earn us almost enough for one ticket...and it needs to get finished so I can get paid! Not to mention I still have two little 'Cave People' costumes to begin...on top of every day life, schoolwork, chores, meals, errands, drs appts, a party in 2 wks and ongoing work in & on Sisters' room...

Instead of making bows {i.e. $$$}... I snuggled up on the sofa watching 'Dirty Jobs' & am now in the bed with the BOTH of you wrapped around my {Completely. Numb.} left arm...

I. Love. You. ♥

New Uses for Old Things

I used to read Real Simple Magazine.  I LOVED IT.  Our 1st Thanksgiving Dinner was a feast of gourmet deliciousness straight from the pages of the 2003 Fall Issue.  

One of my FAVORITE features was the 'New Uses for Old Things'.  GENIOUS IDEAS!  I only had two small problems with RSM.  

#1~ As magazines go it is Expensive.  

#2~ I could NEVER remember to actually DO any of the wonderful tips & ideas that I so enjoyed reading...

I came across this 

on Pinterest this afternoon & thought 'What A Great Idea!' As I ALWAYS try to do, I followed the pin to it's original site {to make sure it wasn't bogus, SPAM or phishy} and came to RSM... Should have known.   ♥

Chicken Tonight...???

Have you ever just thrown a bunch of stuff in the crock pot & hope it turns out okay?  I did that last night...

Frozen Chicken Breasts & Thighs, Chicken Broth, Cream of Chicken, Diced Tomatoes plus Cannellini Beans & Spices.  Today I added Chopped Frozen Collard Greens & Diced Onion and more spices {because crock pot meals WILL lose flavor over time...}.  

The smells are drool worthy...  ♥

PowerStruggle

How. On. Earth....Did I end up in bed { @1am } eating enjoying GuiltilyGobbling OREOS & MILK!?!  

I went into the kitchen to grab a baked egg!  I had decided that I needed to ease my rumbling tummy so I could sleep....I did eat two egg whites { I threw out the~7grams of fat per~yolks }...

I blame the Hubbs...HE was the one that reminded me of the blasted OREOS that I have successfully ignored all week.  

I Ate Six.  

At least they weren't 'Double Stuffed'.

On The Hunt

As a 'budding' Seamstress, I Love Love LOVE all things Sewing related.  I enjoy reading Sewing Magazines, Sewing Blogs, Sewing Tutorials, Sewing Forums, even Sewing Patterns~my Kindle & eBook are full loaded stuffed  OVERFLOWING with them and I even have more on our desktop {I am IN LOVE with PDF's that come with LOTS of color pictures}.

Now if I could only find the TIME to use some of them!!!

Anyway, right now I am On The Hunt for an Overall/Romper pattern. Not just ANY old pattern {I have 2 or 3}.  I want THIS One:

This is NOT my picture.  I came across it on a FB Resale a year {or so} ago and just had to save it. One of the Blessings of a Sewing Forum is that you can involve other Ladies in the hunt & glean from their knowledge on other things...and I now have three other Ladies helping me hunt down a pattern for this style of Overall/Romper!  ♥

Such a FUN & Relaxing Day @ The Magic Kingdom  yesterday.  But now, I am TIRED!!!  We left our home A MESS for our impromptu mini vacation...and tonight we'll be headed out to purchase a new DISHWASHER {seriously?}...ours finally gave up. So...no cleaning to be done this evening.  I got about 5hrs of sleep before our WDW day & 5hrs after {yawn!}. 

Now I sit here trolling the Internet...listening to my kiddos play...trying to work up the energy to get our Stinky Selves UN~Stinkified { & on that note~has anyone else noticed that WDW "Stink" smells differently than normal everyday 'work up a good sweat' Stink...??? These are the questions I ponder... }.  

My point...??? Oh Yes.  I reach over to get my coffee, only to raise the cup to my lips for a nice warm drink...of nothing.  Ruffles has been sneaking my coffee!  And as I type this, she walked up & asked for more...I ♥ Our Kiddos...  ♥  ♥  ♥

No More Diapers!

Oh My~what a KrAzY Whirlwind my life has been lately!  We just got off of a week long vacation that SAVED. MY. NERVES.  I swear I was 'this close' to a mental breakdown...YIKES!  But, on the bright side...one of those KrAzY events was a VERY Good One~Potty Training COMPLETE!  {{ Whoop Whoop! }}  


Our Little Ruffles was is quite an opinionated and strong willed child {{@ only 2 1/2!}} and she would be the 1st to tell you that she did NOT like the potty.  She loved her "bipeys" and would continue to use them "always."  UhOh.  I had these terrible visions of sending her to AWANA every week with her diaper bag.  Visions of fights with a 4 year old over her "bebe" {{aka pacifier}} and "bipeys"!  And then it happened that about 6 or 7 wks ago, she started to ask to be changed immediately upon wetting or soiling her diaper.  It got to the point that instead of 3/4 of a pack of diapers/week, we went through 2 entire packs!  The last straw occurred on June 1....


We were waiting to be seated for my sister's HS Graduation and Ruffles informed me that she needed to be changed.  I told he she would have to wait~as we were jam packed into the atrium waiting to be allowed into the theater to be seated~and continued my conversation with another sister {{there are 7 of us}}.  After a few minutes I felt a pat on my arm {{I was holding Ruffles on my hip}}...I looked down and asked 


''Yes Ma'am?''
''Mommy, tan I pwease as' you a hwestion?"
"Of course, thank you for asking Love"
"Mommy, you 'memmer when I tol' you I needed my bipey shange?  You memmer?
"Yes, I do"
"Well, I 'till need it Mommy.  I all 'ticky tause I wet my bipey.  Tan you lease shange it now Mommy?  I neena new one, memmer?"


At this point, I looked at my Daddy and proclaimed "Yep~it's time".  I arranged that night to have another sister watch Robot for me one day the next week.  I was planning 'Operation No More Diapers' using this blog post by {The Moes Family}.  I knew that our Super Smart, Super Crafty Little Miss would NOT take well to pull ups.  I knew she would use them for what they really are~diapers...


The night before 'ONMD' commenced, I told Ruffles that when she woke up there would be no more diapers in the house.


"Dus a little bit more Mommy?  Dus a little bit more diapers? 'lease?"


LOL...she really did NOT like using the potty.  However the next morning came and she got her 'Big Girl' panties, undivided Mommy Time & LOTS of snacks and treats.  Our day actually turned out to be quite complicated {{including a dr visit and x rays for Ruffles}} but I won't go into detail.  Suffice it to say that after only a weekend and 2 wet pair of shoes ~with one DISGUSTING INCIDENT thrown in for good measure~our Ruffles was a Potty Using Lil' Diva.  {{ Turns out that she liked the sensation of warm wet tinkles down her leg WAY less than she liked using the potty!  }}


♥

{{ Nerves }}

I am just so very tired...and so very VERY "done" with this constant feeling that I'm about to jump out of my skin...my nerves are frayed beyond...well, beyond words! My insides are in a unending knot that twists & turns...I am thankful that we were able to give our BubbaMan a WONDERFUL Birthday...the only things getting me through this day were PRAYER & my Sweet Boy's gratitude for being "so good to [him]" and the "Best Ever Mommy" along with tons of hugs and kisses. I pray that the following weeks will afford me some relaxation & LESS STRESS...not sure how much more I can handle!

Giveaway
