CRAZINESS this week!!

Well, yesterday I finally put together the "scrap holder" I made for the girls for Xmas. I have it stuff full of scrap goodies. I can't wait to see their reaction when they open this puppy up!! It's filled with a scrap album for each, markers, colored pencils, stickers, paper, punches, scissors for each, stencils and templates, glue stix, ribbon and foam alphas!! They are going to love this! Just need to teach them the "right" way to scrap now. Gotta go thru my pix and give them the doubles. I just took a plastic window box and painted it their favorite color and found some Basic Gray alpha letters and glued it on. I had to use some chipboard for a couple of letters, but I just inked it. They have a place in my scrap room for their new scrap stuff too!!



This is a "note box" that I made my niece (she's the girl coach in the pix). She's coach Morgan's soccer team this year. Thought I'd make a little something for her to put on her desk and work. She's always suppling me with notepads she gets from the Pharmaceutical reps, so I thought I'd return the favor and make her a place that can store some these! I just took some square coasters, covered those w/ patterened paper and then punched holes in them. Tied it up with ribbon and viola...got a box! Had to make it related to soccer and I'm sooo glad we got our soccer photos in time for this gift!


On Tuesday, Morgan had her Xmas Program at school w/ 3 other kindergarden classes. It was short and sweet. She did very well, singing all those Xmas songs. She's our little performer! She's the little one at the bottom right.


Then on Wednesday, Sydney had her Xmas Concert w/ her preschool/daycare. Of course, she sings ALL the songs at home, but when you put her on the stage...well, let's just say she looked like a deer caught in the headlights!! heehee Every now and then you would see her mouth move, but that was all! She's more cautious!!


Well, today is Friday and it's the end of the week practically. Still need to finish up some of my Xmas wrapping. Not at all looking forward to it. Stayed up till 230 am last night wrapping some presents. I'm either a slow wrapper or a neat one. Well, it didn't help that I was watching all the shows I had on my DVR. I'm finally caught up to the 2nd week in November!! I have LOTS of shows that I like to watch! ;)

Today, I'm going to be "trying" to wrap some if not all the presents (yeah right!) and hopefully get some relaxing done by scrapping!! Keeping my fingers crossed. Tomorrow Morgan has a soccer game and then we are going to see Xmas lights tomorrow night. Sunday hopefully DH takes the girls 4 wheelin' so I can have the house to myself to clean and prep food for our big dinner on Xmas eve!! OH, and more wrapping...grrrr!!!!

As for the baby...Colton...he's moving slowly now. Only 7.5 weeks left till due date. Yesterday the doctor wasn't in for my appointment (she had an emergency C-section to do) so the nurse just took my vitals, answered questions and listened to his heartbeat. I'm officially spoiled by my doctor!! NO 4D PIX THIS TIME!!! That's okay, so I have a "normal" OB visit! :) It's makes it more exciting now to not having to see his face...makes it seem almost near!!

Well, have a good weekend and thanks for visiting!!
