Twas the day before Christmas

Twas the day before Christmas,
and all through my house,
the presents are hidden from my little mouse!
The stockings are stored in the closet I fear,
when do I get them, the time's almost here!

Yikes!

Am I the ONLY one NOT ready for Christmas yet? Groan! What is wrong with me??????

I will not panic, I will NOT panic! LOL. Oh boy seems like I wanted to do so much for Christmas this year. The clock is slowly ticking away. I will get done what I will get done!

I am going to take a deep breath and relax. Have a cup of coffee, and go from there. We will be having our little party at daycare today, as Monday was a snow day and yesterday was the trip to the dentist. The girls are done for 6 months! Yahoo.

Ok you all have a MERRY CHRISTMAS and I will get to work on my other "projects" when time permits. Have a fun day and enjoy your families.

Snow days

here is what the deck looks like, snow, snow and more snow!

Here's my hubby trying to shovel out a path from all the snow that has drifted.


The girls are playing on the deck a few days ago. Great job on the shoveling Destiny!

Snow days, snow days, nothing like a snow day! No school for today so we can get plowed out from under God knows how many inches of the wonderful white stuff! Even hubby didn't go in to work today!

I cannot post pictures yet as the wind is blowing so hard I may be blown away! Just take my word, it is a white wonderland out there.

I plan on taking today and having the girls help with the cooking. I need to make a few cards first then clear off the table so the girls can mix to their hearts content.

I am off to create, you all have a blessed day!

Merry Christmas to all

Merry Christmas to all of you.
I don't know about anyone else, but I am feeling the pressure of the holiday season. I still have some gifts to make I havent even cut out yet! I want to make the girls some pj's that they like (nightgowns), from some cute material I got a few years ago. Sigh, where does the time go?

I want to make more things for them as well, like matresses and blankets for the cradles that Patsy and Bobby gave me. The cradles sit in the craft room waiting to be made over just for them as well.

About a couple of weeks ago, I was feeling a lot of pressure as I needed to finish about a hundred cards for a workshop that was comming up, and even more cards for a different card workshop for another group of ladies, and I started to panick. I seem to do much better early in the morning (when peace reigns here). So I got up really early to work on them. As I sat and sipped on my coffee, I felt peace flow through me from my head to my toes. And a voice that is kind and loving (Jesus) spoke to me in this quiet time. He said for me to relax, and I will accomplish all He wants me to if I trust in Him. I cannot tell you how relieved I was!

I have put my faith in Jesus and my desire to follow Him no matter where He leads me for the past 7 years now. I am so blessed! So if any of you out there have had a tugging of your heart, like something is missing, accept Jesus into your heart. And you too can live a blessed life.

May you all have a blessed life in Jesus.

Yes, I am still alive and well

I cannot believe it has been almost a month since my last post! Wowza. I'll bet you can figure out what I have been up too. Yes making cards, and other crafts. Whew! I have a craft fair this Saturday and am trying to make up some last minute things for it. Not to mention a few gifts for Christmas.

Hope you all out there in the blogging world have a Merry Christmas and a safe and happy New Year.

So what color are you?

You Are Navy Blue

You're a true adventurer. You constantly find yourself drawn to new experiences, people, and places. Sometimes you feel quite scattered and bored. If something exciting isn't going on, you feel a bit lost.

Not just another day

Today is Saturday November 1, 2008. This is not just another day here in my neck of the woods. You see I took the girls to the Doc's yesterday as both were coughing and had fevers. We spent the better part of the day there, between the Doc's office and Walmart to get the precriptions for Emmy. We also went to Joann's (what is a trip to Bangor with out at least checking them out) and then to McD's for a late lunch.

We left home at 9:30am and didn't return home til after 4pm. For the most part the girls were good, even though they were not feeling the best. Both slept most of the hour trip home. LOL.

So needless to say they didn't get a chance to go trick or treating last night at all. Hopefully they will have better luck next year.

The meds are working on Emmy as she is now up and running around, her sister however is not. If she is not feeling better by tomorrow morning I will take her to the Doc's again. DD did eat today which is always a good sign.

The reason why I titled this post as not just another day is because it has been a few months since we have had sickness in this family that has effected both of the girls. I like it that way, and would love it to be lots longer! LOL.

I have been working on some cards this day and may be able to post later the pics.

I hope you all are happy, warm and healthy in your little world.
