Introducing Jane. . . .

I originally bought this stamp, "Jane" from Rubber Romance because she reminded me of my cousin ~ Sharon. After I put together this card, I decided I could make extras and sell them with the proceeds benefiting breast cancer awareness. My beautiful niece Shelby is walking for the cause in April. What do you think?

Wii what?

Yesterday was great! I spent time with some of my favorite people. Parker people! Alex bought a WII game for his family for Christmas. We built characters, they boxed, they bowled, they boxed again. Fun!

Christmas day!

Christmas day, my mom and I went to my brother Craigs. We walked in and Hayley was picking at the food, hungry, and ready to eat because what? No opening presesnts until after lunch? Yikes, what's up with that? So, Hayley was very polite about filling the tea glasses and clearing plates. She is after all a nice teenager but her ultimate goal was to open her lap top and printer. She quickly scurried all her gifts to her room and I didn't see her again. :(

Thanks for the perfume Darla!

A flocking of friends at Christmas.

After the carols, tree, turkey, and pecan pie, a small group of my childhood friends gathered together to share some laughs and good times. Well, at least that was the intent. On this particular Christmas two of Carol's girls went with us but one wasn't feeling well, so they shuffled out early. My cousin Sharon who I completely adore, let a random driver totally rattle her otherwise good nature. Then to top off everything else, I feel asleep just after we sat down to watch a movie. Sorry gals, I'm no good late at night.

Christmas Eve at my Mom's

Wow! Our family is growing and growing up. My sister Shyrl, "GG" tries Uncle Billy's giant hat on the baby, various family members open gifts, my niece Shelby cuddles with my great nephew Brayden, the beautiful Kassie sports her new winter hooded jacket, and my sweet niece Shyanne flashes me a Christmas grin! It's always good too see them!
