Teacher Gift

I saw this idea on the web last year & of course forgot to do it last year for Hannah's teacher so I made one for her teacher this year. I found the frame at the Dollar Store. I took out the glass and it worked perfectly.

Santa On A Firetruck

Saturday morning we were sitting around the table making bows and talking when we heard sirens and honking. Becky grabbed Hannah and told her to come on.



Well of course by the time I found the camera he had already gone by but it's santa on the firetruck. He goes around the neighborhood throwing out candy for kids who come outside. I've never heard of this but it's such a cool idea.







And the big kids enjoyed picking up candy too :)

Shea & Martha

We headed out Friday afternoon for Seabrook, Tx for our niece's, Martha, wedding. The trip was fast and furious but worth every minute. The wedding was wonderful and the way I wished I had done it back in the day. Hannah was the flower girl and looked gorgeous. I have tons of pictures to share but I'm to sleepy to upload all of them correctly :) Isn't digital photography wonderful? Gone are the days of having to wait forever to see your wedding pictures. Here a couple I played around with in photoshop.



I love how he is looking at her. He is the sweetest.



Congratulations and best wishes to you both. We love you!!!

Crafty (finally)

Finally got to get crafty on Thursday. I've been wanting to alternate more comp books to try to sell. I got 4 done. Woo. Hoo.









I'm loving this line from Graphic 45. I need to go back and get more.

Baby Girl

10 years ago today our baby girl was born. She keeps us laughing and makes life interesting :) Happy Birthday Hannah!!!!!

Stressed Out

We are still around. It's just our busy time of the year to say the least. I haven't started shopping for Christmas and plus we have birthdays coming up too. It's been keeping me up at night. I'm going to pick out one night next week to go. I like going during the week because it's a lot less crowded. I can probably knock out most of it in one night (knock on wood).

We survived Hannah's "friend" party last Saturday, barely. Was planning on them to be outside as much of it as possible but the wind was blowing making it so cold. Most of the boys did stay out most of the time playing football.

We went to the late show that night to see The Blind Side. I definitely want to buy it on DVD when it comes out. Go see it.

This is a crazy week. Worked last night, going to meet a cousin tonight for dinner, Hannah's family birthday party on Wednesday, Thursday working at concession stand plus Hannah's Christmas program at school plus her actual birthday and Friday heading out for our niece's wedding. My head is spinning :)

So I leave you with this picture:



I noticed it after the party on Saturday. It's what happens to decorations above a door after 20 kids go in and out a door about 50 gagillion times. And it's kinda how I feel right now.

Snow! Yea!!!

We woke up to snow this morning. They said we had a chance of a dusting but I consider this more than a dusting. It was pretty while it lasted. It's almost all melted away. Oh well, it's better than no snow at all.
