Dear Santa

In the past couple of months the following items have decided to kick the bucket.  Please keep it in mind as you decide what gift to give me.

Camera
Microwave
My phone is on the fritz
and most recently our Computer

Turns out I use our computer for much more than just email and facebook which is actually a comforting realization.  I thought it would be a nice change not being able to be so connected to the media world for a few days/weeks and it has been but it has also given me many other challenges in regards to getting things done.  Thanks to friends and family who have let me come to their house and use their resources.  I am still a little bummed because I have 2 free photobooks that I need to make by the end of the month which is posing to be a problem. since they are so time consuming and I still need to upload all the pics.  Not to mention my Christmas card/letter which I think will end up being a New Years letter which although I usually send out the first week of December, I am fine with this year. 

Until then, here is a sneak peek of our recent family pictures.  My amazing friend Janneke took them for us.  She also was sweet enough to make this little card for me to post since she knew my computer was not working.  Isn't she the BEST!  I love her dearly.  An amazing photographer and an even more amazing friend!  Thanks Janneke!

 


Anyway, I just wanted to jump on and let you know all is well.  I have lots to report on but alas it will probably have to wait until we get a new computer.I hope you are enjoying this Wonderful Christmas season and that the Spirit of Christ will reside with you at this time and always for He really is what it is all about this month and throughout the entire year.  

Merry Christmas!

What to pack . . .

So now that he really could come ANY DAY I figured it was probably time for me to pack my bag. I of course have one of those "What to bring" checklist, but I was wondering what your thoughts where. Is there anything you wish you had brought but didn't? Is there anything you would have died without if you hadn't brought it? I'm just so clueless! A few tips from you experienced mothers would be greatly appreciated!! I cant believe it is so close!!

Have you noticed?

I need a haircut ASAP! This is me saying, "I'll smile if you ignore my hair." Don't get me wrong, I am really excited I have long hair, I love having long hair , but it needs a little TLC. It has been a few months since I have even got a trim and I am still re-couping from a not so good hair cut. The last few times I have really CUT my hair, not just a trim, I was not pleased with the results. Now it would probably help if I was willing to pay more than $10 for a hair cut . . . but I'm Mrs. High Pockets as my father calls me and it is really hard for me to spend money on my hair. So I need your help! What do you think I should do? Before you make any suggestions you should know: It MUST be able to go back into a ponytail!!!!!!! My hair is STICK STRAIGHT My hair will not curl to save my life (via over night curls, hot curls, even curling irons, they just don't work) I want and need something EASY! I do not like to spend time on my hair and I don...

No Use Crying Over Spilled Milk . . .

So being an emotional pregnant woman is definitely taking its tole on both me and Jeff (what a wonderful, patient, and understanding man he is). Saturday morning I was so excited because for the first time in weeks we actually had a morning together. I had planned to make us a delicious breakfast just like my dad always did for me. We had Eggs, Hashbrowns, and even Bacon; we were so excited. So I started cooking the bacon first, knowing it would take the longest. Then when I thought they were close to being done, Jeff started cooking the eggs and I threw on the hashbrowns. Well, needless to say, the eggs finished super fast and the others were not even close. And then to add more to my frustration the pan I was using for the hashbrowns was awful! Despite my many tablespoons of butter the entire thing was completely stuck! I switched pans in the middle to try to save them. In the meantime Jeff ate his eggs so they wouldn't get cold. I insisted on waiting so I could eat th...
