Christmas Day {2011}
Christmas Day was quite enjoyable. Rob and I woke around 9 am and couldn’t believe the kids had let us sleep so long. We jumped out of bed and got breakfast in the oven and unloaded our stockings. We enjoyed our breakfast of sausage balls and apple fritters. Daisy was very excited about what Santa …

I promised you some pics of the tree decorated. So here ya go. She’s a little on the short side and nice and wide. Yah, she fits riiiiight in. 😉 She’s perfect for our front room that luckily is quite roomy. This is my new ornament that I got at our Sunday School class party. …
Handmade Gifts
I made these handmade gifts for my coworkers. They are super easy and super inexpensive. I think for a set of 4, it cost about $1.40. I had lots of fun choosing the paper for each person that reflected their personalities. They were quite a hit. *Remember to allow 30 days before using the coasters …
Cherry Cordial M&M’s
Cherry Cordial M&M’s are so amazing! I couldn’t believe how much they taste like a chocolate covered cherry without the juice of the cherry.

If you’ve never heard of them, you actually probably have heard a song or two of theirs, but don’t let the name fool you. They are not an orchestra, but an amazingly talented rock band that utilizes strings, polished …
Fill in the Blank Friday 12.2.11
The holiday season is my favorite time of year. I love soaking up all that the Christmas season has to offer, from the smells, the decorations, the food, Christmas movies, cooking for the occasion. There’s not much that I don’t like about the Christmas season. Snow makes me excited. Living in the South, we don’t …

30 days of Thankfulness – Day 25
Today I’m thankful for the little things in life. The laughter of my children, the beautiful fall colors, the butterflies in the spring, the smell of homemade spaghetti sauce cooking, the silliness of Daisy, the comfort of my bed. All these are little pretty “insignificant” things, but they make me smile and happy even when …
