Long Time No Post....

How was everyones' Christmas break? Ours was soooo fabulous! I had almost 2 full weeks without work which was so, so nice. Oh course I didn't really rest like I thought I would. I spent the entire 2 weeks doing things with the kids, and doing projects of my own.

We had our annual Gingerbread Party right before Christmas and it was great! Like always we had a ton of people come and it made me wish I had just a little bit more room in our house for parties! I simplified (as much as I could) by finding the pre-made dough, and doing gingerbread people instead of elaborate houses. It was so much fun!

I edited all of my pictures from January-November 2007. Not only did I edit but I also scrapbooked with is amazing all in itself because I totally lacked motivation to use my creativeness. It took me a full week to finish over 45 pages! I have a scrapbook bulimia, it do it all at once until I can't possibly scrap anymore. That is how I am feeling...although it would be nice to finish my pages from DC....sigh. Here a couple of my favs....I added a slide show of my pages in the side bar----->
I read the first Twilight Book that everyone has been raving about. My friend Sum recommended it back in July but I finally had time to read it....i took me 2 days, couldn't put it down! Ohh I love it, I can't wait to read the next two! If you haven't read it...I highly recommend it!

We also built and finished a huge book shelf and armor' for Kase and Macie's room. We got in a huge fight about it, poor Justin is amazing at building things just from the little drawings I sketch, but he is terrible at the details. I on the other hand am a perfectionist, I like to stain, finish things, I like the finish work...guess I get that from my Dad. I expected him to be good at detail stuff too but it turns out he's not.

Our fight ended something like this...
"you said they looked like shit (which I totally did not) you finish them yourself!'~Justin

"FINE, I will!'~Me

That was that. I finished them myself and I think they will look fabulous!

I will post more pix when it is finished!

I finally got my Christmas Cards out for friends (sent over 100) and Clients (sent 185 out). That was nice to get done. That's a freakin butt load of cards, stamps and work! Hopefully everyone got one that wanted one. If I missed anyone it was not on purpose! :) I still a few hanging around if I missed ya!
