Time for Christmas Cards!

Now that Thanksgiving has past (had a lovely time in Kansas City, Ericksons! Thanks!) it's game on for Christmas. I'm all about following the holidays in order and not skipping over any like the retail market tries to do. (Did I ever tell you about how I threw Wade a surprise birthday party in August? When I went to Hobby Lobby they had no decorations for my fiesta themed party because they had moved in all their Christmas inventory. In early August!)

Anyway. We will start our Jesse Tree tomorrow and probably put up some decorations. To save money, we only send out cards every other year but this year, Shutterfly has an offer for bloggers that I'm so thankful for!

Here are 2 of my faves that I've picked out...

And if you remember my post about my Christmas cards last year, you can be darn sure they will say "Merry Christmas" this time!

Seriously, they've got so many cute Christmas photo cards it's unreal. Of course they've got other awesome products like desk calendars and baby announcements.

Other bloggers, if you are interested in 50 FREE photo cards from Shutterfly, go HERE! Woo hoo!

Thankful. Grateful. Blessed.

For oh-so-much!

It's amazing to think that I have everything I've always wanted. And to quote my favorite movie Willy Wonka, "If the good Lord had intended us to walk, he wouldn't have invented roller skates."

Oh wait, wrong quote.

Willy Wonka: But Charlie, don't forget what happened to the man who suddenly got everything he he always wanted.
Charlie Bucket: What happened?
Willy Wonka: He lived happily ever after.

Indeed, it is good to give thanks to the Lord. Just ask Reese. She knows. :)



Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Oh, and I've been writing this post in between letting the crust refridgerate for this pie that I am currently attempting to make!!!!!

Halloween 2010

Anyone even still check this?

If not, that's all right. I need to keep up with it for me, anyways. I looked back on last years Halloween blog posts and smiled, not sure how my little ones are getting so big. I know I'll be sad if I don't keep documenting the little (and big) moments in our life. I'm not a baby book keeper nor am I good at printing out loads of pictures to collect in a photo album then hide away in a closet. And scrapbooking? Not a chance.

So anyways, there's no way I'll be able to catch up on the last few months of life on this blog because we've done a ton of things. But I can at least start with Halloween and maybe throw in some old news every now and then.

Tigger and Ariel

Here was last year's Halloween post. :)

I've got much to share (soon) so I'll try to pop on and update more often. Have a fabulous week!
