So I placed one of my Pre made scrapbook albums on Rileyyardsales.com a local Ft. Riley yard sale website. I have had a lot of lookers so far no sale yet. I think I am going to put some of my Crafts on there too see how they do. My Angels and Mr. and Mrs Claus just may sell. Fingers crossed. I have to start somewhere right? I am going to have a yard sale in a couple weeks and I will advertise on their site also. I will have some of my Crafts and Scrapbooks in the yard sale too. I am thinking about putting together some really pretty 8×8 albums to sell too. I will post pictures of them when I get them done and let you know how it goes. Here is a sample of the album and the crafts I am trying to sell.

I hope everyone is planning a great Holiday. Please pray for all of those who do not have much.  I hope everyone is well. Please pray for those who are not. Me and my family have been battling colds, flu, virus’s and sinus infections. This has been a hard couple of months. I have gotten one of those one right after the other for the past has it is crazy do I hope this is the last time I catch something I really do not want to be sick for the Holidays. I have not been doing too many crafts either because if I have not been sick my girlfriend has or we just keep giving it to each other. I hope we can get some crafts done before the Holiday is over. We are working on a really pretty wreath but first we have to get well to finish it, then I can post a picture. The snow was a little much but I think it was really pretty out when it was snowing and then the day after but now it is just plain cold out. LOL! When the snow fell that day it covered my Bar B Q grill in a very odd way.  Here is the grill on my back deck that Tues it snowed. I call him my Snow Trooper. HA HA!!

Well we have put the scrapbooking away until after Christmas so we can make some Christmas crafts. AND take lots of Holiday pictures for Scrapbooking after the Holiday. LOL! I am so excited right now I love to make the crafts for Christmas. This is my favorite time of year. I love the Christmas joy and Holiday spirit. OH YES! The lights, I love Christmas lights. I have mine up and lit now. People come down the street every night to look at them. I enjoy  putting up the lights and Christmas decorations. I just hate putting them all away. It is a good thing this is a long Holiday huh?? I have alot of decorations that’s for sure .  Especially with the crafts that I have made over the years. Here is just a few of them. LOL!  Also the Christmas lights.

This will be a hard year for alot of people for Christmas. I know we are having a smaller one than usual but I just want everyone to know that you are in alot of peoples prayers. To all those families who’s loved ones are over seas and those who cannot get to your loved ones because of the lack of money and the economy, hang in there hopefully with enough prayer everyone will be safe and taken care of.  I guess alot of people out there will find the true meaning of Christmas this year as they scramble to give as little material things and as much love as they have in their hearts. To all of you out there Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. Hang in there god is listening. Stay Safe.  Read more... (145 words, 2 images, estimated 35 secs reading time)
