Christmas - 2010

 We had a great White Christmas this year!  And I'm so excited because I got a Nikon D3000!!! So I'm a picture taking fool now!

Yeah, I don'nt know what kind of face I'm making here!!

Hope ya'll had a great Christmas too!! : )

Now it's time to get this place cleaned up!  When Christmas is over I always get in the mood to go through my closets and do a good clean out, get rid of the clothes I don't wear anymore, make room for the new stuff (or the things I'll buy in the January sales!) and just get into organization mode to start the year off right! 

How about ya'll, does anyone else do this?

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

I wish nothing but the most wonderful blessings to everyone on this beautiful Christmas Eve!  May you be filled with the spririt of Christmas and wonder of the birth of our Lord Jesus!

Merry Christmas Friends!

My 29 Goals in 2010

So back in January instead of doing the usual New Years Resolutions, like go to the gym more, never happens, I decided to do some goals for 2010.  These are things that I could work on all year long, which for me being a self proclaimed procrastinator were perfect! 

I'm going to share these goals with you and let you know if I actually was able to acheive them. : ) 

I'll also be doing another list of goals for 2011, that list will contain 30 (I chose 29 because I turned 29 this year) so the 30 list will have to be a doozie!

Now, I'm going to tell you right now that I didn't actually achieve hardley any all of these goals, so the one's the I didn't complete will be going on to my 2011 list.



Okay on to goal 1 and 2.

Goal 1 - Attend Church on a regular basis (I didn't quite acheive this goal I'm embarrassed to say, I did try a bunch of Church's out and ended up finding one that I really like that I've gone to a handful of times, so this will definitely make my 2011 list)

Goal 2 - Run a 5k (**Disclaimer - I'm NOT a runner, hate it, but I did start running back in February kind of gearing myself up for a 5k in April, but it never happened.  I've printed off the running plan From the Couch to 5k (google it, it's awesome) that I'm hoping will help me out.  This goal will also be making my 2011 list)

So there are my first two goals and as I'm looking through my list of goals I didn't actually acheive a lot of them, but they're good goals that I'll be sharing and adding to the 2011 list. 

Happy Tuesday!

Another wonderful Thanksgiving!

Hi Friends!  I hope everyone had a nice Thanksgiving, ours was great!  I cooked for my Granny and Papa and my Mom and niece.  And everything I made was straight from the Pioneer Woman and fabulous!

I brined my turkey, which I had never done before and highly recommend.  I made her mashed potatos and then her stuffing (I added sweet sausage to it and it was yummy!)

I also made her homeade rolls and caramel pumpkin cheesecake!!! Everything was so good!

It was great to be able to spend time with loved ones!  And then I took a nap after they left because I was exhausted from all the cooking!! haha 

But I was able to wake up and watch Elf, love that movie!! I also love the The Family Stone but can't seem to find it anywhere on DVD?!  I did find out that it's coming on FX on Sunday at 7:00 so I'll be recording it!

Have a great Friday night!! : )

October in Pictures!

Lots happened in October, the in-laws came to visit for three weeks ~ went to the beach ~ celebrated a good friends birthday ~ had our TWO year wedding anniversary! ~ and hosted our first Halloween party!  Woo, that was a busy month!  And I think November is going to be even busier!  Have a good week friends!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Hope you have a GREAT halloween and get lots of little ghouls and goblins ringing your doorbell!! : )

Halloween Costume!

Yup that's right, I'm going to be Hit Girl for halloween!  I've got the cape, mask, tarten skirt, and purple wig!  All I need to get now is the fake double sword and some gloves.

This is definitely going to look like a halloween costume and not very realistic (I'll be wearing uggs for my boots and a regular shirt, not a leather jacket) but you'll recognize who I am though!  That's half the fun is coming up with creative ways to get the look you're going for!

So, tell me, what/who are you going as for Halloween!! I'd love to know! : )
