been awhile..

so apparently i havent blooged in a very long time lol.
since the last time i blogged alot has happened. my boy celebrated his 2 yr birthday party and it was a blast, ive been preparing for my girls 3 year birthday party which is on sunday. she wanted dora and even tho i hate dora i figured might as well get it over with lol. i have also been dong a ton of painting in my house. i painted an accent wall in my livingroom, dining room and bedroom. i also painted the saying 'our family is a circle of strength and love' on one of the dining room walls. i have painted my dresser and end tables in m bedroom and the shelf i have in my living room. i am working on painting the frame of a mirror i bougth second hand for my bdroom cause im sick of jumping up and down in front of my small bathroom mirror to see if an outfit works lol. all of these things got painted a dark chocolate brown and i really like how it looks. i also got 'new' couches since my old ones where pretty ratty already. my brother-in-law is making me a bedframe and im pretty excited about that. my sister from bc is planning to come out to visit over christmas and i think it'll be a blast.
the other day i had a movie night with my nephew and his mom and it was a ton of fun. the kids loved playing with their lil cousin. with the holidays and all the birthdays coming up there is a ton of stuff planned for the next month. saturday is my birthday and my niece is getting baptised, sunday is my girls birthday party for one side of the family, the 3rd is her actual birthday plus her professional pics in the city as well as family pics for us and then the next sunday is the other birthday party for her. the kids dad has his birthday on the 23rd and we're planning his party for the 19th. then the 21-26th are filled with family gatherings and other christmas fun.
socks keep getting stuck in the pipes of my washing machine and that has been super annoying. seems like when i finally try super hard to keep my house clean something breaks and i fall behind!
