DPP Catch up day... Day 7 - Day 11

Oh. A chance to sit down at the computer. Nice.

So... where was I? ;) Day 6? Goodness I am behind. :(

Let's see...

Day 7...Friday... We had a stressful week last week and this particular day made it all better. Not only did this little cutie fall asleep in my lap (which rarely happens) but we also go the honor of seeing some friends from back home that were in town. My heart was super full this day!

Day 8... Was Saturday... It was peaceful day at home thrown in a Christmas photo shoot for an old neighbor of ours. I shot their maternity pics, newborn and 3 yr pics, and now was a go at some Christmas ones. We didn't go anywhere but my living room and I would have LOVED to have done some things differently, but I guess that is the joys of learning huh? All in all it went well I would say. I hope they are happy with the work though. 

Day 9... Sunday. Oh I love this day. It means fellowship. We have church and this particular Sunday we were leading a new members table in a class our church offers. I love doing those tables. You get to meet new faces and pour out the love this church has for Christ on them. It's amazing! We also have our weekly Small Group. What a blessing this group of wonderful hearts has been for us. Oh we love them and our time together! This week it was our turn to provide dinner. It was hit. So grateful. It's hard to prepare someone everyone might like.

Brownie cookie bits for dessert (brownies from a mix and cookie part from scratch) and Cheesy Biscuit Bean 'n Beef Casserole for dinner. I love budget friendly too!!

Day 10... Monday. Yesterday a cold front rolled through our southern state and left the most pitiful amount of white stuff behind. Other cities south of us accumulated more than we did but the kids loved the hopeful sign that white stuff could fall from this big blue sky of ours now. It was nice to have the cooler weather around to help it feel like winter really is right around the corner! :) ... See lame huh!? heehee

Day 11... Tuesday... TODAY!! YAY!!

Today has been a laid back school day here. We are close to being caught up and once that happens we will be able to enjoy the rest of the month off! :) We can not wait let me tell you!! Today though I wrote out more Christmas Cards... yep we are handwriting each one per person. I love doing that each year, but my hand today is asking me to double check that statement. ;) Still a handful more to write.

I also made some homemade bread (thank you Pinterest) because we were out of bread here. It was a huge hit! Now I need some more flour and maybe we can start making it more frequently = no more store bought. It was super easy to make. :)
