The Story Of Us

This past week has just been blah.. the weather is getting colder.. M has been working a lot.. and D and I are still coughing.. My in laws who live with us semi permanently are going for a visit back home (Pakistan). They have a daughter there.. three grand kids and a whole lotta family and friends.. so we have been busy with last minute shopping, packing, weighing.. M and I are anxiously waiting for Thanksgiving break.. not because we have any plans.. we are looking forward to the no plans.. we want to be boring homebodies.. watch some movies with the kids.. play some board games.. we really love our board games and do a whole lotta nothing. Just a couple more days to go.. this month has been so slow.. so I will bide my time with a little giveaway.. courtesy of Society6  I am giving away a $10 gift card and a little something special from me :) Wooden Wall Art   Woven Wall Hanging     Wall Clock Wall Tapestry   Throw Pillow Comforter   Coffee

We have been having some crazy weekends.. day trips and birthday party preperations.. so much to share with you but before I get into all that.. I was recently introduced to a new subscription box called Sockwork: Socks With a Purpose.. it is the brainchild of Mario and Tina who both hold our veteran's very close to their hearts and decided to create a business that not only kept your feet looking good and warm but also helped the many veteran charities out there. Every month they send you two cool pairs of socks and 10% of their profits go to a different veteran charity. You can read more about them and what they are all about here . We received our socks in the mail a few days ago :) The socks come wrapped in tissue with a sweet mint to eat while you read the included note telling you about the great charity they are donating to that month. While they are currently in the process of launching their very own sock line, at present all their socks are designed in Californi
