Thank You Card

Good Morning! Hope that everyone had a fabulous weekend! My weekend was very busy trying to weed out all the toys that the kids don't play with in preperation for all the toys that they will probably get for Christmas. My wonderful husband worked so hard moving so many heavy things, including 5 TV's that we donated to Salvation Army, and countless number of clothes and toy bins that we had to organize. Luckily, all these things are down in the basement where we have our "toy room", as well as, my scraproom. So, that meant that my scraproom got all cleaned and somewhat reorganized too. Which also meant that I got to do a little bit of scrapping this weekend, yeah!!

I whipped up this Thank You card real quick last night for my parents. Every year my parents get us something that we need for the house for our anniversary. It just so happens that right around that time this year our freezer pooped out and we needed a new one, so that's what they got us. We are so lucky!! So here is the card that I made to say Thank You. Check down below for the recipe.

Hope you liked it. Check back tomorrow for the beginning of my Countdown to Christmas Cards. I got a bunch done this weekend and the pictures are all loaded and posts ready!

Have a great day!!

Isn't It Amazing...

how we can have the best of intentions and it just not end up going anywhere, because somehow life just gets in the way. Well, that's what my life has been like lately.

I planned on doing a Christmas card every day and I have completed quite a few and have several more half done, but when it comes to actually taking pictures of them and getting them up for all of you lovely people to see, well that's another story. With all the events that have gone on lately, with Halloween, dance, and Cub Scouts, well, my camera is quite full.

On top of that my kids have both had colds in the last week that have prevented me from getting a whole lot done. I did get a few errands done yesterday, but still have some "household" things to get done. Plus now, I'm sick! My throat is hurting me and my nose is all stuffed up. Which, for a pregnant women who is not sleeping well as it is, does not add to my energy reserve.

Anyway, I am hoping to get some much needed me time today, since the kids are home for election day, and get some more done including putting some of my Christmas cards up for you to see.

Until then, here are some cards and projects from last year to get you in the Christmas mood.

Have a Wonderful Day!!

Christmas Countdown

Can you believe it? Only 52 days till Christmas! Now, this has a double meaning for me, because by the time Christmas gets here I will have barely any time left till I am due with this wonderful little girl! Holy cow!!

So, as I said in my post from the other day, I am going to try to make a Christmas Card everyday this month, so that way I should have all my Christmas Cards done by the end of the month. Now, the last couple of days got real busy, because I had to do some running around for things for my sister-in-law and my new little nephew. But, this morning I have lots of other stuff that I could be doing nothing to do, so I am going to work on some cards that I have been planning out.

So, what does that mean for you guys? Hopefully, a few posts this morning from me!

Also, I am using some planning pages for my Christmas Card and gift giving organization and wanted to let you know where you can find them, because they are great. So go to Organized Chritmas and you will find tons of stuff to help you get your holidays in order.
