Where has the time gone this 1st month of 2012?! We have been busy as always. I just haven't had the time to keep up here as much as I'd like. Again, I'm going to try to do better :) We are leaving for Disney World in 11 days!!!! We could not be more excited! I think we are going to have so much fun with both kiddos. Don't get me wrong, I know there will be meltdowns (we are taking Alyvia after all!). I'm just hoping they are few and far between the great times we are going to have.
Besides getting ready for that craziness, we have been cramming in all sorts of other stuff too! Last night I hosted a Mary Kay party at my house. I was sooo nervous that I would have a terrible turn out, but I had 12 guests come! I was so happy!! I cooked lots of yummy food, courtesy of pinterest, including these 2 dishes...

| Spinach Artichoke dip-it was o.k., a little bland |
 |
| Smores bars-delicious! |
I had a really good time visiting with all my guests.....not to mention all the free product that I earned!!!
This morning, Colson and daddy headed to the shop at Oak Lawn to work on daddy's tractor. Alyvia and I went into Peoria to do some shopping for our vacation. As soon as we got home, Livi and I headed over to my friend Jenn's house for a Scentsy party.
I didn't really know what Scentsy was, but I really liked their product and I ordered 2 warmers and a bunch of scents. I'm excited to get my order later this week! Livi and I came home around 2:30 and Alyvia immediately had to show daddy all of her purchases from this morning, she LOVES to shop (for herself anyhow)! Around 3, we left for our friend Jameson's birthday party. I can't believe he's almost 6! We went to Monkey Joe's (a bounce house place) and he had a "Super hero" birthday party.

We hit Little Ceasar's for dinner on the way home to wrap up our crazy day with some crazy bread (ha, ha) and pizza. It was a busy, but productive and fun day. Hopefully, I'll do better at keeping up on here...we shall see!!
