What I Got For Christmas!

This seems like a rather materialistic entry/list, but really its a way of showing gratitude for the things that people got me.  And I pretty much made out like a bandit this Christmas. 

-3 seasons of The Girls Next Door (with more to come when they are done being on back-order)
-A Mary-Kate and Ashley package (3 seasons of Full House, a Mary Kate and Ashley Hawaiian party movie, Passport to Paris, How the West Was Fun, and When in Rome) These were from my mum, who started out just getting the Full House seasons, but kept finding more stuff to add on to it.  I am a loser so I think its awesome!
-Gift Cards Galore!  $25 to Joann's, $25 to Borders, $25 to Old Navy, $15 to Hancock Fabrics, plus Michael and I got a $25 Olive Garden card, $25 Regal card, and 2 movie tickets.  I also $25 in cash.  I want to go shopping!!!
-Somewhere In Time - My sister remembered how I always watched that movie.
-Ramona and Beezus - My baby sister and I had been planning on having a movie night when my family came to visit and we were both waiting to watch this together.  She also got me Puffy Cheetos.  Movie night was great!
-Polar Express and Santa Claus is Coming to Town - Yay Christmas Movies!!!
-A really nice shirt from my grandma.
-Flintstones movies - also from my grandma.  These are her old movies that I used to watch (and watch and watch) at her house.  I am stoked.
-A Strawberry Shortcake t-shirt - Where she is wearing her adorable clothes, not her stupid new ones.
-A Christmas cooking set - Mixing bowl, wooden spoon, cookie cutters, cookie mix, and measuring cups.
-Socks, coasters and a handmade bag from my friend.
-Soap and body spray - Michael's cousin always gives everyone presents every year, which is pretty sweet of her.
-Mario 64 for the DS

I think that is everything, but I probably forgot something, which when I figure out what it is will make me feel terrible.  But I am so happy with everything I got, and so appreciative of how many people took the time, effort and money to get me things.

    Full House is awesome! One night I was watching an E True Hollywood Story type of show about Mary-Kate and Ashley and I pined for Full House. I went on Amazon and got the complete series box set. And Girls Next Door is a guilty pleasure of mine. :p

    I'm happy to see you had a Merry Christmas. :)

Why I Choose Christian Light Education Homeschool Curriculum

Last summer I decided that I was going to homeschool our foster daughters while they were on summer vacation.  There were two reasons for this: 1) Two of the three girls were behind academically.  I really hoped that by working through the summer we could help them get on track for the next school year.  They left our house soon after school started, so I don't know how well it worked. 2) I don't allow my children much in the way of screen time, and these girls were accustomed to having TV and tablets in their rooms all the time.  So they never really knew what to do with themselves.  I figured school work for the morning would help with that dilemma. Choosing a curriculum was difficult for me.  I know that some people bounce around and change curriculum a lot, but whatever I got, I hoped I would like enough to use the non-consumables with Little Guy.  I don't like wasting money, and I hate the idea of some topics falling through the cracks because different curricu

Things That Annoy Infertile Girls (or Maybe Just Me?) - Flashback Friday

This was actually one of my more popular posts when it was first published, but I still thought I would share it again.  Any additions to the post are in pink, as usual :) Accidental Pregnancies - So I have been trying for years to get pregnant, you go slut around and accidentally get pregnant? Immediate Pregnancies - You quit taking your birth control last month and now you are pregnant? People Who Give You Retarded Advice -            - Just stop trying and you will get pregnant            - My friend adopted a baby and got pregnant right away, you should do that            - Get drunk, people always get pregnant when they are drunk (Yes, they do. Because they are              intoxicated and forget to take precautions.) Whiny Girls That Pretend They Are Infertile - Trying for 5 months is not suffering from infertility. It takes a year on average to get pregnant.  I get that it might FEEL like infertility but it just isn't.  After YEARS of trying, I can't even rememb

Training Children vs. Raising Children

In many conservative circles, parents refer to training their children.  This term comes from Proverbs 22:6, which says "Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it."  Almost unfailingly, when you get into a discussion on this topic, there is a parent that is appalled at the use of "training" on children.  Nine times out of ten, they say "You train dogs, you RAISE children."
