Glitter and Grit

Happy New Year!

I guess it's been a little while since I've updated everyone on what's happening around this little house. I've talked to so many people in the last week, I'm not even sure who has and hasn't heard the newest update, but here it is:

We completely passed our home inspection from the State! Now, we are waiting, yet again, for our Foster Care License.
Once we have that license, I can call our Social Worker and she will then come do her own inspection for LA County. So yes, we are still currently...

No joke, I look like this now!!

Since I didn't feel like sitting around this Holiday Season thinking about everything that is not going on, I decided to hand-make a few Christmas gifts. I'm not going to lie, it kept me busy! Too busy. But totally worth it.

Here are a few fun things that came out of my mess of a craft space. (and by craft space, I mean my kitchen, living room, and garage). Good times!
a Wind Chime, for my Fam's Christmas game/gift!

an Eternity scarf made from Matt's old Tshirts.

Glittered Wine Glasses!

Pictures baked onto coffee mugs



Christmas was amazing this year. We had 5, yes, 5 different types of family Christmas' plus my work party and random get togethers with friends. They were fun and I always love seeing everyone! But wow. Can we take a few days off and relax now, please??!

 I hope this blog finds you all well and ready for a new year!
 I'm not posting any New Year's resolutions on here, sorry to kill the "new-years-eve-blog-expectations". I'm still working on resolutions from like 3 years ago... I'm also not starting any kind of new exercise or diet until tomorrow. We're starting off the New Year with a little Beer Pong and pizza in a little bit! Woo!


Good night everyone, until next year!
