I can’t believe this year is already over. This decade, actually. My oh my, how things have changed. At this time ten years ago, I was sitting at work (3rd shift) with a one year old and an almost four year old at home with my mom. My life was a crazy mess, and my [...]

Happy Christmas Eve! Isn’t it exciting??? It’s almost time! aaaahhhhh… I LOVE Christmas!! Today I made tiny paper stars. …and put them in a candy dish.

- Day 3 – Instead of creating something with my hands today, I decided to create some family memories with the kids.

- Day 5 – My mind is completely blank. I have been sitting in front of this computer for the past hour trying to think of something to write. Nothing. It doesn’t help that Damon is watching Season 1 of 30 Rock (Kenneth is my favorite!) and I keep getting distracted by it. He is [...]

- Day 6 – With all the crafting going on around here, things that should be getting done are being ignored, like cleaning. Let’s be honest… I could always ignore cleaning. It’s definitely not one of my favorite things to do. However, being this close to Christmas… I would like everything nice and tidy. Since [...]

- Day 7 – Being shut in because of a snow storm is one of the best reasons to have a coloring day! We laid this brown paper across our dining table, cranked up some Laurie Berkner and scribbled away! After we were finished, I decided to use this beautiful piece of art to make [...]

- Day 9 – I know most kids tear wrapping paper to shreds without even glimpsing at it in an attempt to get to what it’s concealing… but, it’s still important to me. The wrapping on a present can say just as much as the present itself, especially to people who truly appreciate the artistry [...]
