Roller Coster Brain

The past two weeks have been my roller coaster weeks. More so in my head. Just in case you thought you were the only scatter brained, absent minded, moody, procrastinating woman out there, rest assured. Your are not.

Jonny boy, Nanny, Li'l Gal, Li'l Guy and I went to a friend's two year old daughter's birthday party. It was really fun, such nice and original decorations and REALLY yummy food!

We all dressed up as bandits. It was the easiest and fastest costume idea I could find/think of.

This event also marked Jonny boy's first deer ever to have shot. I am very proud of him. He went hunting for his first time, alone, waited 3 hours and BANG got a deer with one shot! Usually I wouldn't be the one to post a dead animal like this. It looks cruel and it's just sad. Jonny actually said he wouldn't post it on Facebook because for him it's a way to feed his family. Not for show. But I was too excited I needed to share it!!

 The (REALLY) fun, yet long day was all worth it. The only stressful part was trying to get SOMEBODY to nap... Which resulted in screaming and crying for hours. How fun...Terrible twos, is what they call it??

This whole hunting ordeal was very exciting, but also reminded me of my dad who also hunts and was very proud of us. It just made me homesick. Again. Gladly my sister in law offered that we have Tuesday Tea at her place every Tuesday (not only every second Tuesday like before). Now I am my nieces art teacher! This week I taught them how to paint a multi-colour zebra! These are the results! I am a very impressed teacher.

My other "dilemma" is our tiny house. It is very difficult to be thankful and content when there is no room to put anything. We have a two bedroom house and no where to put Li'l Guy! I ALWAYS need to remind myself to stop feeling sorry for myself, and remember that God blesses me SO MUCH!!!!! Its hard to look outside my shell if I'm being selfish. Wednesday God calmed my heart down through a Bible verse that I get in my emails every day. He knows what I need to hear.  

Colossians 3:15 

Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful.

Nanny helped me REARRANGE my living space to make a bit of room for the playpen in the living room. I know could just put him in the room with his sister, but I'm not ready for that chaos yet.

All this talk is making me hungry!! Which reminds me of an AWESOME panini sandwich I made and couldn't wait to share it with you!!!!

PESTO PANINI!!!! (found on Pinterest)

2 slices of bread

green pesto

Tomato

Cheddar cheese

Margarine/Butter 

Love

Spread pesto on both slices of bread, cut slices of tomato and cheese. Slap it all together add butter on frying pan and on top of sandwich and make grilled cheese! 

Soooooooooo Yummy. But I think all food is Yummy haha.

May God bless your week and give you peace that no one or nothing else can provide. 

Until next time...
