When my husband gets a crazy idea

My husband is such an outdoors guy. He grew up on dirt bikes and working on cars. We own a muscle car that is crazy fast and we take out on date nights.

When I met him he had his car, a motorcycle, and a 4 wheeler. Over the years toys have moved around and as of right now he just has the car. Which I would never let him sell in a million years! He has almost completely rebuilt that car and it is such a labor of love plus he picked me up for our first date in that car so it has some good memories.

Anyway about a month ago we were talking about getting a 4 wheeler again. One that was bigger, that we could both ride on and that could have a plow on it to plow the driveway in the winter. After going over out bills it just didn't seem to work right now.

Well fast forward to Monday and after shuffling some things around and paying off some debt.We figured out what we could afford, Michael called the bank we got approved and on Tuesday he picked out the wheeler he wanted called the guy and now on Friday him and Chris leave for a 6 hour drive to go look at and hopefully (most likely) pick up and bring it home.

I know get a night at home just me which never happens. I plan to paint my nails, make cookies, watch TV and start going through my closet.

This was one of the things I signed on for when I married Michael. He is very detailed yet quick.I mean we were only together for 4 months when he proposed! I knew then that my life would be made up of quick decisions and be full of fun.

Here is to having a 4 wheeler to plow the driveway and to spend sometime trail riding together!

Friday Favorites

Love that it's Friday Love that its Friday and we have a beautiful weekend ahead of us! Linking up with Andrea today! One These PJ's. When we first got married (and even before I was married really) I used to wear cute PJ's to bed and then I started to wear not so cute PJ's to bed so I ordered some new ones and OMG girls get these now. So so soft so so comfy and under $20.00! Plus they have pockets! Two While your shopping at Kohls throw some of these picture frames in your cart! Just for fun! I love that they are easy to change out and have a distressed look! Plus they can sit on a shelf or be hung on the wall. Love! Three We have been swimming like crazy and that equals all the things that go with swimming like a million towels and swim suits. My bathroom was a mess. I usually never wash my swim suits I just rinse them out and hang dry they last a lot longer doing it that way and so I had things hanging every where! So I ord

A nice little sweet spot

The sweet spot…. We seem to have hit one. I feel like we have not been in a sweet spot since the twins were about 6 months old. You know before they were mobile and can get into a ton of mischief. When kids are 0-6 months they still like to be held they eat mostly bottles and they mostly just stay in one spot. No issues, you can go places and even though you have to pack up your whole house to be prepared you can relax. And if you are in my family someone is always willing to hold or feed or change a baby. 7-months to 2.5 years old is what I refer to as the lost years. You have so many things you have to do for them they are not potty trained and they are mobile and get into EVERYTHING. Going outside is more work than its worth and with twins they scatter in opposite directions. Three on one is so hard handle in big open spaces. I would often find myself skipping outside time because the work was just too much for me. When the twins turned 3 and Grayson was 6 it felt like we had a

Home Schooling

Ah home schooling something that all of the country was thrown into. March 13 th was the last day that Grayson went to school and Charlotte and Marshalls last day was March 12 th . We got the call on March 15 th that school was closed for 2 weeks and that a pick up for at home materials would be on Tuesday. It was not required just suggested and so we loosely did school work. A worksheet here, spelling words here, some math problems ya know simple things. We truly believed that 2 weeks and they would be back in the classroom that is what the district presented as happening and so the distance learning was just to occupy time not to really learn anything new. Everything we were given was review. Then we got the notification March 30 th we were closed again for another 2 weeks. Again, we were being loose with the learning because I was now working from home all but one day a week and had all three kids home and lets be honest it was a lot. Michael was still working 4-5 days a wee
