Attn: Westminster/Broomfield landlords we're your next tenants!

It seems my wish of moving may becoming a reality.  We’re close to signing a lease agreement with a family that would like to move in on July 1st.  I’m truly excited by this, but also nervous.  This means we have A LOT to do in just a few short weeks.

By going through with this, we’re taking a huge risk.  We had hoped the house would sell.  Houses on the streets around us have sat on the market for months so we knew our fastest option to move would be to rent, or even rent-to-own, the ho...

Facing the question of where we will live while pregnant

Posted by Misty Montano on Wednesday, May 12, 2010, In : Home 
This week I am 24-weeks – 6 months – pregnant.  I simply can’t believe it.  For one it doesn’t feel like I’ve been on this pregnancy coaster for that long of a time.  Second, what do you mean this baby will be coming out of me in just over 3 months?!  Seriously?!  (Frankly, I still don’t think I’m down with the whole birthing process.  I didn’t think this all the way through…)

When I stop to think PANIC mode sets in.

I know part of this is just normal pregnancy, especially 1st...

Put you in a chocolate coma hot chocolate recipe

Posted by Misty Montano on Monday, November 16, 2009, In : Home 
I am a dark chocolate lover. I don't like chocolate that is too sweet. So while my stepsons played outside on this snowy day I decided to make homemade hot chocolate.

Let me make this clear; I made up this recipe just today and my nine-year old actually thought it was too much chocolate! "Oh man there is way too much chocolate!" he exclaimed. The rest of us sipped it down in chocolate happiness and Dad also drank the mug that was "too much chocolate."



Chocolate coma hot chocolate (4 servings)...

I have the flu, suspected H1N1

Posted by Misty Montano on Friday, October 16, 2009, In : Home 
I decided to write this post because everyone who has found out I and my family are sick have asked two questions: what were your symptoms? and what did the doctor say?  This is the answers to those questions, but I can't stress enough this is what happened with us.  In no way should my post be used to self-diagnose or self-treat yourself or others.  Please call or see your doctor if you are sick.  My husband just returned from seeing his doctor, with what seemed to be the exact same symptoms...

About Me: No I'm not a mystic


I answer to many names Misty Lou, Misty Jean, Mystical and even Extrafancy are just a few of the nicknames to which I answer. The most important names though are Wife, StepMom and, soon to be, Mom. With all these names it's sometimes hard to know who I am! This blog started as a Nebraska girl learning, trying, succeeding and failing at gardening in Colorado. Along the way in growing my garden, I grew my family too as I married a wonderful man and became stepmom to two precious boys. Now our family grows more as I'm pregnant. So here is all of me as I share my family, home and garden. BTW my middle name is Jennifer; my name is Misty Jennifer Montano.
