A Christmas Tag

2. Do you wrap presents or bag them? Wrap, a few times... I have to make it fun!
3. Colored Lights or White? I like White, Curtis likes colored... We made a deal, I got white lights until we had kids and now that we have Carter we have colored lights..
4. Do you hang mistletoe? Nope.. my boys give me free kisses
5. When do you decorate? After Thanksgiving.. this year has been postponed until we get into our new house!

9. Snow...love it or dread it? Love it
10. Can you ice skate? Yes
11. Do you remember your favorite gift? Curtis has given me so many memorable gifts, but growing up I would have to say it was the gift of my mothers' time... One Christmas eve we stayed up all night and wrapped gifts for my sister and just sat and talked, it was a gift that I will always hold close to my heart..
12. What is the most important part of the holidays? For me it is absalutely being with family and friends... And remembering what this season is about... it isn't about gifts or the tree well not at least for me... it is having that sweet spirit of the Lord in your heart...

14. Favorite memory? Christmas memory... recently I have many, Curtis has always made this season so wonderful, the one I mentioned above with my mother tops the charts, but I would have to say I think this Christmas will be one of my favorites... Waking up, sitting next to the Christmas tree with my husband and my son and watching Carter's face as he opens his presents... As a mother, seeing your child smile... it doesn't get much better then that..
15. Do you have a special ornament? We got Carter a new ornament and we may just start a tradition of it...
16. What do you do on Christmas Eve? We open up one gift and make cookies for santa and set out red gatorade for Rudolph... and just enjoy watching the lights being together
17. If you could have anything for Christmas this year what would it be? I would love to be with family...
18. What do you do for neighbors and friends for Christmas? We are going caroling at a nursing home and we usually make our neighbors & friends some sort of yummy treat...

Merry Christmas to everyone... This year has been crazy yet one of the most incredible of my life, I wish you all happiness in this new year to come.... I tag Amy, Amanda, April, Rachel & Nancy

Merry Christmas My Love!

Some Sweet Pics

Snow Pics

It snowed so much on Sunday, but by the time we got home from church, this was all that was left!

Making Gingerbread Houses With The Young Women

Thanks Alison!

I got this picture from our friends' blog... We will be moving into the home right above them in two weeks ...but I saw that they took a picture of our soon to be HUGE back yard, I thought it was so beautiful that I had to post it! The first snow picture of the season!

The Latest..

The other day, I was terribly bored and I went down to Michaels and bought some canvasas... After Carter fell asleep I decided to try my hand at painting... Curtis was so funny, after I finished I called him over and asked him what he thought, he paused and then said, we have been together for over 7 years why have I never seen you paint before! He suggested that I post them and see what you think.... So here they are!

The New Generation of Cereal Lovers

So, Carter is not eating cereal yet and if he was fruity pebbles would not be my first choice, but he loved playing with the box!

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!

This Thanksgiving there is so much to be thankful for... It is easy to get caught up in hard times and become overwhelmed, but Today is about remembering and embracing all the things that are so great in life... I am so thankful for my family, My husband is such an incredible man, he works so hard to provide for his family and does a great job of it, he is THE most amazing father I have ever known and I am blessed to have him in my life, and our son... I don't even know where to begin.. He is the most amazing child a mother could ever ask for, I am so proud of the sweet spirit that he is, he is my everything and I love him so much! We love and miss all of our family and wish we could be there with you... May all of your holiday be blessed! Happy Thanksgiving!

Sorry Honey, But I Just Had To!
