Snapshots from our week.

This week was long. 
We all caught an icky cold.
 We're still battling this cold virus.
We had cranky days.
We had good days.
Long nights.
Runny noses.
Early mornings.
And lots of hugs and kisses for our little ones.
I've gotten to snuggle more.

Oatmeal with strawberries, bananas, chocolate, and almonds. And a sprinkle of my oat cereal. It was pure bliss. 

A simple breakfast for me. My banana nut cereal with a few slices of bananas. 


This was my mommy moment. Morning, the sunlight was shining in and I sipped on my tea. Even if it was just for a few minutes, it felt wonderful. 

Using my essential oil diffuser at night. 

I love this bathroom cleaner spray.  It smells so nice and I use it when I'm not using Lysol wipes.

The littlest one is building with blocks. She said she was making a castle. 

While we prepare dinner, our little one is lining things up on the kitchen floor.


Working on lessons with our oldest daughter. She giggled when she read this book to us. 

We were still up! Since catching this cold we have had longer and later nights.


I made a quick visit to the craft store. Purchased some flowers, ribbon, and a few other accessories for a new wreath. I'll be posting about it soon.  


This week while my girls napped I made two decorative vases. If you haven't checked it out, just click this link A vase for every space.

I hope you all have had a wonderful week.

Delicious Fall Recipe: Roasting Pumpkin Seeds

🎃 Delicious Fall Recipe: Roasting Pumpkin Seeds If you're anything like me, your favorite season is Autumn, and I get excited when making fall snacks and new recipes. My family loves it when I roast pumpkin seeds for a quick and easy snack. Roasting pumpkin seeds is one of those simple pleasures that turns seasonal scraps into a crunchy, crave-worthy snack. Here's my step-by-step method—with measurements—to help you make the perfect batch. Step 1: Scoop Out the Seeds Begin by carefully using a sharp kitchen knife to slice off the top portion of your pumpkin, making your cut around the stem to create a wide enough opening for easy access to the interior.  Once the top is removed, reach inside the pumpkin to extract the seeds. You can do this with your bare hands, but I prefer wearing a latex glove to keep things clean and comfortable—though this step is entirely optional.  Alternatively, you can use tools like an ice cream scooper, a sturdy fork, or a specialized pumpkin seed...
