In My Life This Week
It was a bit of a busy week around here so our housework slipped a bit. I am an extreme extrovert and have a natural tendency to want to be always on the go. I have to be really careful to strike a balance between home and extracurriculars. We got all our schoolwork finished, but we all tend to do better mentally when we have long periods of unstructured time to relax, play, and learn spontaneously. And that only happens when we stay home most of the week!

My Kitchen
My hubby's birthday was this week so I made his two absolute favorites - Green Chile Chicken Enchiladas and Red Velvet Cake Balls! Yum!
I'm Grateful For
Healthy kids! We are finally all healthy and have had our allergy meds kick in a little bit so we aren't sneezing and tearing up all the time!
I'm Praying For
All my friend with sick kiddos right now and another friend who is having surgery this week.
Things I'm Working On
I'm trying to make a master document with liturgical feast days and ideas for celebrating them (pulled from Pinterest mostly!), as well as noting if we have their story in any of our various saint books. I'm hoping this will help me have things ready ahead of time so I'm not trying to scramble at the last minute to do something for a particular Saint.
