Happy Birthday Handy Hubby!!!

Saturday, the love of my life, Handy Hubby, celebrated his 45th birthday. 

2 Days Old

It wasn't an exciting day.  He's not really into celebrating his birthday.  Never has been.  It's just another day to him.  A normal day, but with presents.


Handy Hubby is gracious about tolerating my birthday celebration efforts.  This year he allowed me to make him his favourite cupcakes, Vanilla with Vanilla Buttercream frosting.  With sprinkles.  Though the sprinkles were really for Oldest Daughter.  Cupcakes, to her, really aren't cupcakes without sprinkles.  He hates sprinkles.


Handy Hubby spent most of the day working in his garage.  Whatever he was doing involved loads of grease, sweat and at one point, a straw.


His special dinner was Mexican food from a local restaurant.  Baths for the girls, then relaxing to a movie rounded out his special day.  Not too exciting, as I said, but I think the perfect day for him.


Happy birthday Handy Hubby.  I am so blessed to have been a part of your birthday celebrations over the past twenty years and I look forward to celebrating your birthday with you over the next twenty years - plus!!!  xoxo  JCMT

A Week in Review

Image
The last few weeks have been busy.  Living in the car, commuting from one appointment to the next were my reality on some days.  Blogging, getting together with friends or just having relaxing down-time just could not be found on my agenda.  Oldest Daughter was on Fall Break all of last week.  Does it make me a terrible mom by admitting that I did originally dread her being home all day?  I thought I would have to devise activities to keep her busy, plan play dates or day trips to make the time pass faster.  But to my surprise, that wasn't the case!  I very much enjoyed her week at home.  We did have play dates, we did make some short trips, we did do art activities, but because we wanted to - not because I needed to fill up the days.  My girls and I - we had fun!  I would like to share with you some of the highlights from the past week.  I was fortunate to spend one of my eve...

Control

Guess who's back?  Wait - what? No. Guess again.  Yep, that's right.  Me!!  I have missed doing this blog post and communicating with y'all.  I have missed purposely tapping into this messed up brain of mine weekly.  I have missed sharing my innermost thoughts with you and receiving your feedback (even if your feedback is that my innermost thoughts are totally messed up).  I have heard from so many people over the past few months that they miss my ramblings and wish I would just get back to it already.  So, to feed a small part of my creative soul, I am resuming this blog.  Enjoy! _________________________________________________________________ Hello, my name is Twila and I have control issues. I may not attend a 12-step program, but my daily struggles with needing to control all things around me are oh-so-real.  To complete the package of me, I am also s tubborn, strong-willed,...

Summer Was......

Image
Oldest Daughter will be starting school in just a few days, so for us anyways, summer is coming to a close.  It has been an enjoyable one, full of visits with great-great aunts and uncles, trips to the circus, trips to the library, Vacation Bible School and ArtCamp, days spent with grandparents.  It has been a time of sister-bonding, sleeping late, playing with friends and watching too many cartoons.  I am sad to lose this time with Oldest Daughter but quite excited about her new adventures in First Grade.  Here are a few highlights of the girls' summer.  JCMT SUMMER WAS Bubbles     Backyard Wading Pools       Local Kids Club Fun       Swim Lessons       Visiting Bass Pro Shops       Celebrating Fathers' Day         Meeting Great-Grandparents         Me...
