Here's a 17 week picture of baby November.  We will find out in less than 2 weeks if 
we're having a boy or a girl :)


3 batches of strawberry freezer jam with the help of Jon and Allysha


Lyshie made my favorite homemade ranch dressing today.

Here Lyshie made some banana bread.  She's on a roll today in the kitchen! 



So what's been happening?  Well, we went on a mini family vacation to Frankenmuth last week which was wonderful!  We celebrated my daughter's 13th birthday last weekend which was a blast!  She had a party with her friends and then that merged into a party with family members.  Everyone had a great time as did my baby.  We're so thankful!  I hope to get a blog post up on that soon.

Baby November has been moving around so much it's crazy!  So glad to have the reassurance of the movement.  

Jon not only hardended off all my plants, but planted most of them as well.  He's turning into quite the farmer.  

Joshua is still his cute little self.  He sure knows how to make mommy smile.

I'd talk about my hubby but he isn't one for having people talk about him online.  So, without saying too much, I sure love that guy!

My Adult Tonsillectomy Story

Post Surgery as soon as I arrived home. For anyone who really knows me, I have always been completely terrified of surgery.  So when I went to an ENT and he said I needed a tonsillectomy I was not very happy.  I found out in either January or February and I couldn't make my appointment till the end of June because that's when my husband could get off work to help out.  I wrote this so I could hopefully help someone going through the same thing.  Without further ado, here goes. Week Before Surgery: This is when I started purchasing everything I had seen online that might be helpful.  I also started setting up an area on the main floor where I could be inclined for sleeping and have everything at my finger tips.  At the bottom of this post I will have a list of items that I personally found helpful for my recovery.  I also have food allergies and tried to stay away from them as much as possible.  So my food options may seem different than ma...

Gardening tips on a budget

Matt planting our $5 tree. It's 3 years old now and is gorgeous!!! A variety of basil panted in a container. Our lovely calendula. This is a family favorite grown from seed. Cherry tomatoes. Squash Another variety of basil. That was just a bit of what I grew a couple years ago. Bean plant. Lovely lavender! Many times I've wanted to plant a massive garden or have several plants I could simply not afford. Not just that but other things such as mulch, weed blankets and more. I hope you find the tips below as helpful as we have. Please feel free to add your own gardening tips. 1. Purchase trees at the end of the season. We've gotten a few trees for $5 and $10 at the end of the season. We planted them and they've done just fine! Talk about a huge savings! You can also do this with bulbs and other plants. :) 2. Use newspaper for weed barrier protection instead of the weed blankets. You'll want to do this fairly thick; anywhere from 5...
