resource 

 christmas is probably my favorite time of year although my birthday is right up there {august} i don't set up a tree for that (thumbs down). i mean what's not to love? the lights, the laughing and spicing every drink

with yummy nog! geez ya can't loose! so here's to all those non-scrooges out there that love this time of year as much as i! hope this day fills you with tons of presents and goodies.. oh ha..hem.. i mean joy and love! :)

santa.. drinking margaritas

margaritas aren't the typical christmas beverage for us.. but then 84degress [even for florida] isn't so typical either! this christmas eve our holiday dinner is a seafood boil

resource

complete with king crab and the largest prawns you've ever seen, mini red skin potatoes and corn.

hope your christmas eve is just as memorable!

well, there are really lots of things on sale (but of course this computer decided to start acting up) maybe Santa will bring a new computer for xmas?

what are you asking for santa this year?

mod podge and poinsettias

just thought i say a quick hello with a tiny little update, first off never have your wisdom teeth taken out! K. now that we have that covered.. but before i run off to get these stack of Christmas cards all addressed and ready to send out tomorrow.. i wanted to show off one of the fancies on our tree this year.

hand made poinsettias

this is how they started out..

so i guess they weren't entirely handmade

but a little misting, spray inks along side some mod podge and tons of glitter... our tree is looking fine! 

 hope ya'll holidays are super festive!

deck the halls... with wisdom teeth?

with all the hustle and bustle of the season i've completely negated my regular posting! latley my time has been taken up with more important matters like...

record length bubble bath time, movies marathons, playing board games and drinking spiced drinks with cinnamon sticks in between trying out new recipes and wrapping gifts. 

with eric's birthday {tuesday the 13th} there's double the planning, shopping & wrapping! but sadly hardly any scrapping! 

however, the biggest and most fun thing is planned for tomorrow... i'm getting all 4 of my wisdom teeth pulled! yay right!?... wrong. i'm nervous to say the least who plans to have their teeth pulled right before the most important day of the year (no silly not my birthday - Christmas!) hopfully everything will go fine and i'll get better fast so i can get back online for some serious colorful kraft time! wish me luck!
