JoAnn and Family


Here is a photo of My step Mother JoAnn, sister Amy, step brothers Scoot, matt and myself. I think this is the first photo of us all in a long time if ever. He all had a wonderful time on Christmas Eve. To bad Matt was working and could not join us longer. I don't kow why it is putting the phtos sideways... will try to figure it out!

Great Grandma and James


It was very special to have James and Preston see Great Grandma this Christmas. Last year the were both ill and could not visit her as she had just gotten out of the hospital a few days before that and was recovering. She was so happy to get to see them again. As with living so far away it is not often that we make the trip up.

Marie AKA Grandma


My grandmother is a wonderful person. Sad to say she has been getting quite ill as of late. She came home from the hospital on Christmas Eve and we all gathered at her home on Christmas day to celebrate. I hope we have more holidays with her. She was like a mother to me growing up. Love you, Grandma!

Snow pages


While in Green Bay the week of Christmas a ton of snow fell to the already ton they had so we took the kids to Firemans Park to go sledding for the first time. James had a blast Preston was a bit scared of going down the hill at first but after a few times he was ok with it. My stepbrother Scott (also Preston's godfather) came with us. He was a great help and tons of fun. He got Preston dressed in his snowpants and boots and went down the hill with the boys. He also helped James try to build a snowman but james just kept knocking it down. Then we ended with a snowball fight. It was a great day! So nice that the boys can enjoy a bit of snow like I did growing up.

mailboxes



I did the mailboxes last year with just using TLC items. I am now starting a swap on the Cricut MB using the mailboxes. TFL!

Emily's page


This page I did for my niece. I have her name for a gift exchange and she is getting a camera for Christmas from her parents so they asked if I would get her some scrapbooking stuff. So, I made this page for her first page in the scrapbook and I got her some kits, tape, and pens. TFL!

This years Christmas Cards



What can I say, I like how these are turning out but I should have done the math before I started. I make 100 to send out each year. I do photo cards normaly. This year with all the kids not getting together it was a tough one. My step daughter Nicole is in PA in her second year of school. Michael has not been to visit since this summer. (With the ex it is hard to get him over) So with four kids and 100 cards to do I have 400 photos to punch then I have the mat circle to puch also so that is another 400 circles. So I need to punch a total of 800 circles. My hand gets sore! I do like them and I love my family and friends so it is worth it! I will have more thought in next years though!hehe.
