Saturday Share

Hey Friends,

It's Almost thanksgiving. WOOHOO.

So In honor of the thanksgiving spirit, I am putting up a little bit of a blabber post about thankgiving along with my normal share post today

Every Year my family goes over to My grandmother's house, and I always sit near the mashed potatos. Any of you out there that REALLY know me, know that I have a somewhat obsession with mashed potatos and gravy. LOL I love it.

I love thanksgiving because it's a chance that I get to see ALL of my family that I don't get to see often save for holidays. I also loving catching up with my cousins and seeing my family from out of town. It's the best, and now that my daughter is walking, and starting to talk I feel that she can really begin to socialize with the family. Last year she was passed around the table like of like the food, she was alseep the ENTIRE time. This year now that she is one she will be able to partake in the feast.

Another reason I love thanksgiving is for the turkey. I am not a chef by any means, and the only reason decent food gets put on the table every night is because I am excellent and following recipies, but I dont trust myself making a huge dinner for any more that 4 people, and ESPECIALLY not making a turkey. My grandparents always get a huge turkey and I love having turkey leftovers because it makes dinner really easy for a few days.



Alright I think that is enough of Thanksgiving excitment.

Now for my regular "share post"


This week I have beeeen soo busy making things for my ETSY, as well as local orders. I've been mass producing wrapped and decorated hershey bars, stocking stuffer items and Christmas cards! I have gone through about a million rolls of atg tape!


This week we have been taking time to REALLY set up my daughter's room. We've been getting her more toddler furniture, and trying to get all her toys consoldated to one section of her room instead of their former location ALL OVER THE HOUSE. She also has an impressive stash of toys underneath my Craft Table, which she usually plays with while i'm making something. Isn't that funny!!


Here is a picture of our current progress

I'm going to take a wild guess and say by the look on her face that she likes it!! We are still trying to transition from "baby" to "toddler room" but I think we have a good start already.

Earlier this week. I also took it upon myself to rearrange our entire living room. It started as just moving the sofas to sweep and mop underneath them ( hardwood floors) and vaccuming the area rugs, but then I decided to just move everything, even the entertainment center and computer desk.Yes it was alot of work and that's basically all I did that day.



Yesterday Was my crop night at Michaels and it was fantastic to go see my crop friends because I missed last month when i was stuck at home with a horrible flu :( I was also able to stock up on some fun things: I finally got a martha stewart score board, and using a 50% off coupon it was only 10 dollars :) I also got the K& Company Secret Santa Paper Pack , an ek success border punch (scallop diamond), a Fiskars Paper Crimper, and a few ribbons. I did really good because most of the items were on sale for 40% off


Alright I think I'm going to end this post, with a photo i made for my Grandparent's 40th (RUBY) wedding anniversary, which is today

mother's day 2010 for the flowers
