Look what I found at Target.




I was strolling along in Target today when I spotted these. I love the vintage colors and feel. I stopped and started loading up my cart. Then I remembered I have car tags and insurance due next month. Boo Hoo. :( I did decided that I just could not pass on the spinning utensil holder in the turquoise blue. It spins like a top!! It is going to be great holding scrapbook tools in my room. Now to clean off a spot and load it up. I really had a hard time passing on the 3 piece canister set for $14.99. Oh well maybe next week. ;-)

Valentines



Here's what I've been working on. Instead of buying a box of valentines this year, I decided to do something a little different. I went to my local Sams Club and bought a box of Hershey Bars. I was sad to find out that they no longer have the paper wrapper on the outside with a silver wrapper inside. :( Now they have a plastic wrapper. It still worked, but I like the way they used to be packaged. My son is very excited because he doesn't have to sit down and put his name on all of them. They are all down and ready to be passed out at his party. One kid down, one to go.

Snow Day


I think my animals have the right idea. They know what to do on this snowy day. Even though it is sub zero weather outside, they are both sunning themselves in the sunlight coming in. Maybe just maybe I can dig through some of the clutter in my craft room today. I've got my warm cup of coffee and I'm headed there now. Have a great day everyone and stay warm!!

Happy New Year!


Wow it is so hard to believe that it is 2010 already!! 2009 was a good year, but I just have a feeling about 2010! I can't wait to see what all this year has to offer. I was so proud of myself last year. I had an idea for teacher gifts and I followed through and completed the project. I made a bag full of these for each kiddo to take to school. These were for all of the axillary people who can be easily overlooked for all that they do. The kids had a great time passing them out to the bus drivers, school nurses, school secretaries, specials teachers, librarians, lunch ladies, janitors, etc.... My son was beaming from ear to ear when he got home. He said "mom when I walked into the office to pass some out, they said you must be the soup boy." He was so tickled. It was fun to get the kids involved with the gift of giving.

I have so many resolutions for this year. I want to continue eating better and getting to my healthy weight. I had been doing so well and have had several pounds creep back on through the holidays, but I have no fear that I can't get right back with the program again. I also want to get back into my craft room again and take the time to create!!

Here's to a fabulous 2010!!!
