Well it takes alot longer to take down Christmas decorations. We spent the whole day on Sta. literally taking them down and getting back to normal. It is amazing the time it takes. Putting them up is so much fun and exciting, the take them down a job not so much fun. Got to clean and move furniture back WOW!! So I hope everyone had a great Christmas and a wonderful New Year. I must get to work and get some pictures ready. Since the holidays are past we are gonna start scrapbooking again. MISSED IT! I am ready to go well I guess I need pictures LOL! On the list next to do. So I guess I had better get on that.

So this is Torrie and our dog socks. He was being a real sport getting his picture taken. So wow the holidays can sure take a toll on you. I hope everyone had a good Christmas and New Year. May 2009 be the year for you.

So this is Torrie Christmas day and the last gift she opened was a big jingle bell. Why you say??

Hold on cuz this is too cute. 

So are we ready for Christmas? I hope I am. I’m done shopping and just have a few more to wrap. I can’t believe the year is almost over too. WOW! So Torrie is counting down on her calender until she gets to open her presents. She is really excited. We took her to see Santa and she sat on his lap for a long time to make sure she got to tell him everything she wanted for Christmas, it was really cute. I will have to download the pictures so you can see her.

Til next time.

An article that attempts to provide solutions to that never ending question: What do you do with all your kid’s stuff? Here are easy ways to keep your child’s room spick and span.

This is my little skiing snowman. Isn’t he cute? He is made out of 3 Styrofoam balls painted with the white snow paint that you can buy at the craft store. I also bought the set of skis there. His hands are sticks from the yard. And his feet are white pom poms. Tiny black pom poms for his eyes and mouth and a toothpick broke down and painted with orange paint. I made his scarf and hat out of red material.  When I made his hat I just took the material folded in half glued it made a cuff and tied a piece of string on top. He is one of my favorites. He is sad we didn’t get enough snow. LOL! So was my grand daughter Torrie is really wanting to make a snowman and snow angels. Well maybe next time.

So doesn’t she look ready for Christmas.  :)  Torrie said she is ready for Santa to bring her presents.  So snow huh??!!  WOW are we ready for the cold windy snow that’s coming?  I am not but Torrie is.  She wants enough to make a snowman and do snow angels.  She is the only one in the house that wants snow.  But that would be some really cute pictures, of course I will be standing ready with the camera for the scrapbook pages that I will need to do.  :)  Sorry so short but ready for bed now.

Til next time,  Donna
