Thanksgiving Craft

I saw this from a fellow tweeter ! Went to her site and "had" to make one.
Got Noah involve with cutting, he decided he'd like to use it as a basket to carry the scripture verses he print out to give to Thanksgiving guest.
Try it for yourself, ours isn't perfect, but has lots of charm ;)

Not Me Monday

Not Me Monday !

This past week I did not put baby in highchair,and let 6yr. old play babysitter while i climbed back into bed, No Way !
I did organize a family photo shoot, but most certainly did not wake baby after a 1 hr. nap, only to have him cry through the whole shoot, Nah ! Bet, you can't wait to see those........
We did not hang our Christmas Yankee car air fresheners, way too early for that, nor have we lit the Jack Frost candle....just way too early in the season !

Lookie Here !

I didn't make you wait too long ?

Here' the necklaces I've put together for our nieces' Christmas gifts.
I still need to make another for the youngest, hers will have hearts and crystals.
I wish I had a tool to stamp there names in, ......maybe next year ;)

I'm working on handmade gifts for my oh-so trendy nieces. Can you guess ?
I'll update with complete picture, if i don't wrap them, too quickly .
And, just to brag a little, all my relatives gifts are wrapped and tagged for Christmas ! I feels good to post that b/c last year we had a one month old, and nothing was wrapped, te-he !

Christmas is coming.

who have joined the Mom-prenuer Shop-a-thon, I have set up the 12 Days of Junkie where there will be two winners every day!

On the ninth Day of Junkie, Laurie gave to me...



1. A fabulous child's cape customized for them to be the perfect super hero, a $40 value.

Complete with fun customizations like frilly edging, double felted emblems all from Plum Pear Apple Designs.

My Hubby Rocks !

My Hubby Rocks !


I skipped last week, but by no means did my Hubby let me down, so this week I'll do two weeks worth of bragging .

Last Saturday as a family, including my Mom, we went to the Courthouse to celebrate our boys' adoptions. I took the above picture outside our small town courthouse. The workers there joked how this was the only "Happy Day" in court. The judge rambled about his take on adoption, and in the end we had two certificates to Congratulate us on becoming a family legally.We were already bonded in heart, but this showed we had enough money and education to endure the lenghty task of adopting.

My Hubby cleaned the house yesterday, patched up nail holes and rehung pictures to my liking. So kind !
He also took myself and the boys to complete our Christmas shopping before the rush, which is my pet peeve not his.
And, as if that didn't make my day complete, he also allow me some time to thrift shop alone........oh man did I get some deals ! All, because he's so willing to love on me just how I need it !
