Christmas 2010






Our Christmas holiday started on Friday Dec. 24th, with the family going to church and than to my parents house for alot of food - drinks- games - presents and fun.Saturday we went to by my brother and sister in laws for lunch. Again, more food, drinks - family and fun. Saturday evening my oldest daughter M and her husband N made it home and we had our family Christmas. More drinks, popcorn ( M got a new popcorn popper) so we of course we had to try it out. Sunday brought my whole family here for dinner.. more food, drinks, games, presents.... I am glad that we do not celebrate the 12 days of Christmas. My waist line would never survive...LOL Sure am glad with Monday came a day off and a day of well deserved rest!!

Here is wishing you and yours a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

New adventure






This year my mom and I were invited to take part in a "wreath" making day. A bunch of ladies get together and make their owns wreaths. When I was first asked to go, I thought to myself, self you have no talent to do this. But there would also be food and cocktails, and just a bit of talking smart. Now I figure I am good with all of those so why not go check it out. My mom got to my house early, and we went to buy our supplies. Now remember this was our first year. My friend "N" told me kinda want to get but we still had no clue. So, we had all our stuff and we headed to the shed. The first thing that hits you is the wonderful smell of pine boughs. And they are everywhere. And the ladies that cut them had about 5 or 6 different types to choice from. One of the gals got us started on our project and away we went. What fun we had. And when we were done with our wreaths we even went on to make a candy cane. We had a wonderful time.. And all the good food we got to sample was amazing too~ We can not wait to go back next year...

It Has Been Awhile....




I know it has been awhile since last I posted anything - but to be honest I really do not have that much going on in my world. The most excited thing I have done lately is bake fall/Halloween cookies. In which my daughter and her bf Evan helped with. It was a nice way to spend a few hours together on a Saturday.

You would not know it is only the beginning of August...with the way the wheat is ready to be harvested, the pumpkins are orange and the Sunflowers are starting to bloom. I thought I would capture of few of these "late summer" moments. I hope you enjoy them!!!
