Christmas morning in pictures:It was fun. It was over by 7:30 am. Everyone was happy. We are blessed.
A Different Kind of Christmas (a Christmas story)
(I was forwarded this Christmas story, along with 24 others for every day in December leading up to Christmas. I apologize that I don’t have an author’s name. Enjoy the story, and have a wonderful Christmas week!) A Different Kind of Christmas Martha had tried to ignore the approach of Christmas. She would have kept…
A day at the temple (…exhausted me!)
Unfortunately, it wasn’t the uplifting, relaxing, rejuvinating kind of day at the temple..but it was wonderful in it’s own way. :) First, I spent three hours freezing my fingers off as I took a “few” wedding pictures for this adorable couple in our stake. It rained until we were completely done (or so we thought)….
Can we re-do today? Please?
It’s yesterday’s fault. I got way too much done on Tuesday. How often do I get to check off everything on my to-do list? (How often before this week have I made a to-do list? Hmm) Stellar, productive days are bound to be followed by mediocrity. Today has been one of those days. First, my…
Team work
One of my favorite Christmas memories as a kid and now that I have my own children is making caramel. Each year it gets a little easier for me as the kids get a little more capable and helpful. I was shocked at how much AJ was able to wrap! The other kids are pros…
Spotlight on Necco
Every once in a while it’s fun to spotlight one of the kids. Today the spotlight is on Necco. During the last year or so, she has really blossomed, and we have become so close. I am proud to say that she has shown an interest in a lot of the things that I love….
The sweet taste of Accomplishment!
About 8 years ago, I started making calendars for my Mom, Dad, brother, sisters, and myself for Christmas. I collect pictures from the year that’s ending and make sure that everyone has at least one picture included. It’s a lot harder than it may seem to… a) find at least one picture each of 20…
It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas!
My bloggy friend, Francesca, sent me this Holiday Meme. I’ve been sitting on it for a few days, waiting for a day when I didn’t have anything else to say. When did I get so talkative? This was a lot of fun to read, and even more fun to answer. You are welcome and encouraged…
I’m a sugar-aholic! (Secret family recipes included!!)
Making candy is messy business! My sister spent the day with me in the kitchen making all kinds of holiday candies and goodies for us to EAT (I mean GIVE AWAY!). I really need to give plates away fast or else I will EAT until my teeth fall out (that’s a line from Andrea!) and…
Ahhh….the middle school holiday concert
Can you believe I was crazy enough to drag all 4 younger kids to Kit Kat’s middle school chorus concert tonight? Not only did I make them sit through the concert, but we got there 45 minutes early because I was NOT going to drive all the way home and back again after dropping KitKat…
