Merry Christmas!

Christmas day...our official 1st Christmas as family. My favorite present by far was an astrology book, call me I'll do your reading.

Biggie's Chili

Tonight I am passing this blog entry on to my number one follower Billy. TAKE IT BILLY! Hey...Hey...HEY!!!! How's everybody? Tonight we had chilli. It was something quite special. Biggin' used three kinds of beans, Garbanzo, Kidney, and White Ones. We all had three bowls each. After the Chilli, Murph joined us and then things really started to take off. We sang carols and watched things on youtube. Helen, in a fit of holiday cheer, threw JuJu at the ceiling. Ouch! Goodnight to all, and godbless.

Get Cozy

It's Saturday night and I'm home sick. Missing out on some much needed work. I can't sit still very long and I am getting a bit stir crazy. Of course the only thing to do is read magazines which makes me want things or surf the internet which makes me want even more things. Murph sent me this link http://re-foundobjects.com/shop. They have the most adorable things, but these blankets make me want to stay home and just snuggle up with a cup of tea.

Makes me Blush

This wedding picture collage makes me smile, I think the feel of it is soft and warm. The tree looks like the tree in the back yard.... oh I'm so excited! Photo- Snippets and Ink

Friends, Family, Fun and Thanksgiving!

Here are some pictures of Thanksgiving! Good food, and a bonfire!

It's not always going to be perfect, and thanks girls.

This morning I had some much needed girl time. I met up with Murph and Sundee and we went to Starbucks. We were going to hike but instead we decided to do some window shopping on Melrose. John and I have been a little annoyed with each other lately. I am starting to realize he is not perfect and neither am I. It was just what I needed some girl talk, I vented out all my fustrations and they understood where I was coming from like only another woman could. So I am learning slowly but surely.

Sneak Peek

This morning I woke up at 8:45, which really felt like 9:45(woo woo for me) cause of day light savings; and I was immediately on the go. Since Monday I have been trying to start my save the date cards, but I have been babysitting non-stop because the family I work for, the dad's show started production in New Mexico and the mom was cast as a regular character. The show is In Plain Sight on USA, and by the way, you can see John in the opening credits. So I have been doing school pick-ups and ballet rehearsals for the Nutcracker, packing lunches, making sure there aren't too many white spots in the salami, and searching for lost blankies non-stop. I am not complaining this is a blessing, this allows me to have a little bit more freedom with the wedding, nothing extravagant, no ice sculptures here, but breathing room. So I have had this idea for the save the dates, not gonna let you see them yet, but I will show you some of the creative process. This morning I went to Micheal's craft store and got some wood, paint and glue, rushed home cause I had to make some signs and get ready for the picture. I didn't have all day cause I had to go to work at three, but I was determined to get step one and two done by today! I could not have gotten this done without John, as soon as I got home I woke him up and put him straight to work. He was in charge of painting the letters, cause the day before I got a manicure after work and I did not want to ruin it for the photos. In return I made him a Greek salad.(Re- I will also post the recipe for Greek salad just for you) I am so excited how this little project turned out I can't wait to show you all! Hold on though, my day got better, when I came home John had surprised me by cleaning the house. I don't mean to toot my own horn, but do I know how to pick them. THANK YOU JOHN FOR BEING SO THOUGHTFUL ALL THE TIME, LOVE YOU! We had so much fun today and you will see what I mean when you get them in the mail.
