The snow is falling!

We have our first snowfall! :) Which I am strangely enjoying even though I hate being cold. lol! But it is so pretty!

Well the oldest girl went Black Friday shopping with her mom so we lost 1 day with her this week. Totally bums me out.. :( But it was a good thing for them to do together. The twins wanted to stay with us an extra day so that they would be able to go do some more hunting because the season will be over then they come back to us. So we got to keep them till Saturday evening :). It was weird for the twins to be away from Hannah (the oldest) because they are always together. Like I said I think it was good though because all of the girls got to have special time. 

                                    (This is Kissy - the youngest of the twins - and I hunting!)

Yesterday my man and I just enjoyed spending time together.. Went hunting morning and evening..  Took a mid day nap. And just enjoy our time with just the 2 of us. Since today we are all back to reality. Andy (my man) is back to school today after 5 days off. I had quite a bit of cleaning up to do from the weekend.. And A LOT of laundry.. because as it has been so cold and we have been hunting we went through a lot of cloths! lol. 

Today I spent 20 minutes on my exercise bike.. Thats all I could really get out of myself. That lovely time of the month has begun today and honestly for some strange reason all I want to do is eat something smothered in cheese and sugar. Lovely! lol.. Thankfully I have very little in the house (Need to go grocery shopping) and I've been able to control myself pretty well. Note to self no grocery shopping today! You know how it is to go grocery shopping when you have cravings.... Bad for the checkbook and the waist line!

Ugh.. Feeling emotional.. Missing the girls and Andy.. <3 

So much going on!

I have had so much going on I haven't been able to keep up on here! Sorry! But now I'm back!

SO! First things first.. I have had a severe sinus infection and last Thursday I ended up going to the ER.  So not fun! So I have spent the last week (with so much going on more info coming) taking drugs, pain killers and antibiotics to get it cleared up. Thankfully now I am starting to feel better although not 100% quite yet.  Yesterday was the first day I was able to workout.. And after working out and cleaning our home I was exhausted and went to bed at 8:00 at night.. I feel very very lame at this point!

Okay! So the same day I went to the ER was opening day of Rifle Season for Deer. and I got my first buck!! (and then I promptly went to the ER right after) And that same night my man got a really nice 8 point! :)

(Our boxer Tucker thinking this looked yummy! lol)

Okay! So since then we've been taking the girls hunting.. getting the deer we have gotten in the freezer.. And enjoying spending time together and with friends and family.

Monday night the twins had their Volleyball banquet. So proud of them they are in 8th grade and had a undefeated season! They only lost 4 sets out off all of their matches all season! :)

Last night we pretty much did nothing.. Which was really nice! I enjoyed the relaxing! Today the girls only had like 3 hours in school today.. So the oldest asked to have her boyfriend over (for the first time) which has been fun! They just (literally 5 minutes ago) sat on my kitchen floor and drew pictures of each other without being able to look at the paper! It was hilarious! 

Never a dull moment in our home! 

So we are going to my parents home for Thanksgiving. Which is a bit hard.. Obviously they are my family and they are good and kind people.. The girls call them Nana and Papa and have for quite some time.. But now I'm hearing that they feel awkward at my parents house.. Which I don't understand but hopefully it goes well! 

I hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving and eat somewhat healthy even though its hard to!!! I'm going to try not to gain 10 lbs tomorrow! lol!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Enjoying time with my man!

Started out my day running some errands.. Stopped in to see my Dad at his natural foods store and had a Chia Latte and a whole wheat waffle... OH YUMMY!!! (Forgot to take a picture!! :( )

A friend of mine found a exercise bike on the side of the road that works great! Heck I'm not going to turn down something thats free! (Don't mind my flooring.. we are in the process of doing some remodeling) Oh and that little blur at the bottom in our male Boxer name Tucker. :) I went on it today for 30 minutes.. Holy crap my thighs were on FIRE! 

Today is my mans regular day off from school.. So this morning while I was doing my errands he got some homework done. Once I got home we just spent time together.. Tomorrow is the opening day of hunting season here.. So we sighted in our rifles.. 

This is my lever action 3030! :) And here are my results! Some are a bit high but I have been assured by my man that that is a good thing when we are shooting at 60 yards.. 

This evening I've just been kinda lazy... Feel like I need it after the last few days! Bed early tonight as I have to get up early in the morning to go do some hunting with my man! I love spending this quality time together. <3

Missing the girls beautiful smiling faces.. Only 2 more days until they are back home with us. Can't wait!

A couple of CRAZY days!

Hello Everyone!

Wowza.. Its been a crazy few days.. First off I am SO thankful for my man.. I see my friend going through such a terrible relationship and he doesn't seem to see it himself. Long story.. But this chick (as well as the last girl he dated) is freaking crazy! This friend and his now ex girlfriend have been staying with us.. And he is a great help and the girl love him.. He is like a big brother to them.. He has been my friend for about 14 years. So anyway this girl lies to him.. spends all of his hard earned money on pills.. she has a problem and lies to him about it and she somehow gets in his head and makes him feel like it is all his fault and someone he starts to believe it.. Sunday he broke up with her and told her to leave.. Now he isn't home after work and I know he was going to be talking to her about her coming to pick up her stuff.. Why are men so stupid!? ugh.. 

Anyway on Sunday when I came home from camping/hunting I found her leaving and my home a complete mess.. I mean the kitchen.. Both sinks filled with dishes.. The dishwasher still full of the dishes I had cleaned before I left for the weekend.. the counters covered in dirty dishes and food from lord knows when.. I was pissed to say the least! The floors throughout the whole house covered in mud and my laundry room full of her stuff which she never actually washed.. So for the last 2 days I have been cleaning my house and getting her stuff packed up. 

I did my workouts yesterday and today.. And honestly I know there is no way I would have been able to get through these last few days if I hadn't. Thank you to Beachbody and Chalene Johnson (The trainer that made the workouts I am currently doing) for helping me deal with all of this! I have cleaned dishes, kitchen counters, floors, and fridge. Cleaned the dining room, floors, organized, and dusted. Cleaned the living room, floors, dusted and organized. An countless amounts of laundry. I am now exhausted and am going to relax and watch some tv. ;) 

Tomorrow I will enjoy siting in my rifle for hunting season! I can't wait! I have been missing the girls so much.. Only a few more days until they come home.. Very much so looking forward to the oldest girls play this weekend and the twins basketball game.. And some sitting in the woods and enjoying some alone time with whichever girl I end up sitting with. :) 

I hope you all don't mind listening to my rants! Hoping you are having a great week!

A busy life!

Today has been so busy. My man and I are camping and bow hunting this weekend and the girls are with their mom.

We got up this morning. Went home and got the deer in the freezer that one of the twins got last weekend. Didn't even have time for a shower and rushed to get to the twins basketball game which was about an hour away from where we live! I love watching them play anything! They have so much passion!

Now off to home to get the doggies and get back out to where we are camping! No hunting for us tonight. :( Well worth it though to watch the twins play ball. :)

I haven't gotten a workout in yet today and I can tell... My body is sore as it is most days when I don't get a workout in. I am planning on taking a nice walk in the woods when we get back to camp. :)

Missing the girls already. :(
