Every year I have to try to make a creative and fun Christmas card. The kids, of course, need fancy schmancy clothes for the photoshoot, too. 🙂 I went with the traditional reds of Christmas for this photoshoot. Unfortunately, reds go supersonic on my Nikon D50, so excuse the excessive redness of the RED. ~~~~~ […]
Ah, instant gratification of walking into a store and coming home with your purchase… Not if you want a deal! It took about a month to get these boots from Zulily, but for over 50% off…it was worth it! I have a bad Zulily shopping habit lately. I think I need to step away from […]
The Girl needed some new tights, having grown several inches since last winter. I may have actually bought them the winter before…well, anyways, she GREW. I got some good universal knit tights in black and white from Target, and was told by the girl that she wasn’t a fan of the non-colorful tights. She still wore […]
This spring my company moved from using IBM laptops to Macbook Air’s. I won’t get into how little love there is in my heart for the Mac. Nothing like stepping back about 5 years technology-wise! At least it surfs the Internets real good…and that is what we should be looking for in a machine for […]
Once a year I like to get us all looking nice and go to a location to take a family picture. I much prefer summertime, as I am not a cold weather lover. This was a few weeks back, and it was a wonderful warm autumn day in between several very cold days. It is […]
This past weekend we were visiting my family for a birthday party for my cousin’s little girl. We stayed overnight, and in the morning the Boy got to shoot his compound bow that Grandpa and Grandma got him for his 7th birthday. He doesn’t get to shoot it very often, but he does really enjoy it. […]
The night before we went out to a rock concert on a Tuesday night (Seether rocks! \m/ ). This meant we got home at 1 am…on a school night. I was surprised I wasn’t more tired. Us old folks need our sleep you know! It was a fun night out, though. It was a smallish […]
Well, it was a Tuesday and I was tired…so I decided to brighten up my day with a bit of red. Being tired has been pretty much par for the course lately. I’ve been feeling a bit down, and that is not helping. Nothing like being on the edge of tears all the time because […]
This was my outfit for Halloween. I don’t really have any orange in my closet. I held off buying a pair of orange booties that were on sale at Target the day before. They were around $20 and the only time I could feasibly see them being worn was on Halloween. No wonder there were so […]
The S.W.A.P. for the Boy is finally done! I still have several things I need to make for him, but I wanted to make sure these fit him first. There are actually a few other Ottobre pants I would like to make for him, so I need to get them traced while I’m still in “Ottobre-pain-in-the-arse” […]
