Ta Da! A Blog!

Are you guys ready for some pictures? Man, it's been a blog in progress! Here's an updated picture of the author....ME! lol



We got a little snow here not too long ago. It didn't last long but we had some HUGE flakes coming down!


As I may have mentioned before, Garrett popcorn (Chicago) is my FAVORITE caramel popcorn. I always ask for some for Christmas but it's too expensive. Thankfully we got a small container of it at work from another office. No, I didn't eat it all!!



Here's how Bubba looks out of the blinds when we close them earlier than he would like!



I didn't have any pics of Marley Sue so I threw this one in. She LOVES her (MY) North Woods Throw!


Bubba curled up in his little house. He has been using it more lately, I guess because of the cold.


The scene of Thanksgiving...........table of food and football! I made a roast with potatoes and carrots, candied yams, green beans, dressing, deviled eggs, rice, and rolls. Rusty was a happy man!


Apple and pumpkin pies.


Jen came home from Colorado and us girls got together for Chinese!!! We had lots of fun! I love my girls. Leigh, Jen and me..............


Just in case you didn't know about my degree............................this is nice..........


Bubba LOVES the Christmas tree! I don't know if it's the "velvet" like skirt, the warmth of the lights, or both! If I can't find him, that's the next place to look.


Dad and Les brought up their old king headboard (dad's actually). It looks REALLY good in the bedroom! Just need some different curtains to look better. Les mentioned something about a matching chest of drawers so maybe some time we will acquire that and have a complete matching set!


Here's our Christmas tree. We went with blue and silver this year.


The new light dad and Les bought for us to go above the sink. Guess I failed to mention that they came up the weekend before Thanksgiving and spent some time and did a little Christmas shopping for us since we don't know if we are going back down there or not. I love the way the light brightens up the counter.


Here is a reminder of what the bathroom looked like when we moved in.


Here it is now almost completely done. I have some Private Quarters rugs coming and I also need to do some more wall stuff. Dad and Les also bought the floral bunches above the mirrors. I arranged them and added the bows. I thought they turned out pretty good!



Another before picture.


And another after. I LOVE the Upper Case Living frame I made hanging on the wall. It was originally meant for the bedroom but I think I will get something different there.


Tonight we watched Claudine and Eli while Becca got her hair cut. We had a good old time. They really liked my Tigger "peek a boo" box!


Especially Eli!


We watched the Witch movie too!


Eli..........such a happy boy. I did change a very stinky, poopy, diaper. Rusty was nice and helped hold the legs!!! Proud of my man!


So that's the last week or so in review!! I closed out the month of November with AWESOME sales for my business and have several parties coming up for December.

Ready or not..........Christmas is on its way!

  1. LOL, I was loving the blog anyway but Eli's FACE! How funny! Thanks again for watching my kiddos! You are an amazing friend-don't EVER forget that!! Reading about your Thanksgiving dinner made me hungry! I LOVE the spare room and the bathroom! Next time we get to revamp a room you're going to have to come and give me some advice. See you in the morning!
