Merry Christmas

Wow I can't believe tomorrow is Christmas Eve! Wishing you and your family a very Merry CHRISTmas & and safe and Happy New Year!

Surprise!

 Pat actually kept a secret! BIG SHOCK! He can never keep a secret!

 Not a cute picture! I think I had one to many glasses of wine at this point!

Goofy Girls

What a wonderful evening. My sweet hubby and my three best girl-friends threw me a surprise dinner party! It was such a wonderful evening. And, crazy that Pat actually kept it a secret. Though I was suspicious that something was going on because he was acting very weird. 

I can't believe that in 10 days I will be 30! YIKES! The 20's were great! So here's hoping that 30 will be even better!

Give the kids a Canvas and let them create! (It doesn't need to be fancy!)

This week I bought a file cabinet. Presley played all afternoon inside the box while I organized piles, and piles of papers! When Ethan got home from school I asked them if they wanted to paint the outside of the box. They were so excited. My kids love art and they love projects.  We sat down and they each painted a side of the box. Even I painted a side of the box! It so funny but this box provided hours of entertainment for my kids and they were so proud to show Daddy when he got home what they had made.

You don't need special supplies, just a box and acrylic paint and maybe a bed sheet to cover the ground! Grubby clothes would be good too!

Another Fall Photo

My Friend Jenni took this picture of our family at the Pumpkin Patch! I thought about using it for our Christmas card, but that would be weird since it's a Halloween picture! I thought it was a really good picture of our family! So back now to the drawing board to find the perfect picture for our Christmas card this year!
