My Thanksgiving Indian!



We are all ready for Thanksgiving here in our house! :) Aidan's class had to make either an Indian vest or a Pilgrim collar....most all of the boys picked Indians. :) Joe helped Aidan make his vest and headband, I think they did a really good job! Alot better than I could have done, hehe! But why do kids this age make the craziest faces when you are trying to get a good picture of them? He gets so embarrassed when try taking his picture, what a goofball he is. I just thought I'd share a couple of pics. I hope you all have a GREAT Thanksgiving if I don't get back on here to post!

Happy Sunday!

Hello everyone.....it's Sunday already! Where did my weekend go? I hope you all have been having a wonderful weekend. It is cold here today...I think winter is officially here! I am really getting into the Christmas shopping mood. :) Has anyone started yet? I know some people are probably already finished up. I don't actually really start until the day aftr Thanksgiving. YES...I am one of those crazy people who get up and head out for 5 in the morning. Grant you....I do NOT stand in any of those lines. There is NOTHING I need that bad to stand in those crazy lines with the others. :) We just really enjoy the hustle and bustle of things. AND....I love to go out to lunch, hehe! I worked retail for 13 years, and had NEVER had the chance to go out shopping on Black Friday. So ever since Aidan was born in 2002...I get up and go every year. :) I just love to people watch and catch a few fights here and there, hehe! So this year it will be my Mom, my cousin and myself heading out dark and early. I am getting really excited about it. So are there any other crazy people out there like me?????

Ok...I am off to get some orders done! Yes, I said orders. :) I was happy to see 3 emails this weekend of sales....I have been missing those kind of emails, hehe! So off I am to sew...since hubby has the tv all to himself watching FOOTBALL! :) I hope you all have a beautiful and wonderful Sunday!

House guests!


Hello everyone! First of all...lets here it for our Veterans today! My Grandfather served in the Army and was in WWII, my Father served in the Army and was in Vietnam. And last but not least, my Husband! He served in the Marines and was in Desert Storm! Hooray for them!



Ok...now on to my house guest! my daughter's friend had to move out of where she was living and her mother wouldn't let her bring her 2 cats yet. So the sweet mom I am, hehe, I took them in for a couple of days. My 2 cats are NOT thrilled at all! :) But they are soooo cute. The thing is, we may be having to keep the lillte grey one, her name is Maui. And the bigger one is going for sure, she is torchering my fat cat I already have. :)


This one is Maui...she is such a little sweetheart! She will be really hard for me to let go. :)


And this is Ramona, she will be having to leave for sure. She is always chasing our other cat...and he does NOT like it at all, hehe!

Tis The Season!!








Hello all bloggers! :) My dad and I have bee so busy redecorating our booth in the Antique Mall...so I thought I'd share a few pics. We have had so much fun the past couple of days, and we have been busy! I spent tons of hours the pass couple of days getting some Christmasy items ready for the open house this weekend. I hope you enjoy. :) I will be taking some individual pics of some of the items and getting them listed in my Etsy store...so be on the lookout. I am really starting to get into the Christmas mood now. :)



My dad built this fence just for the top of our booth for display...I LOVE how it has turned out!




Here is another few!



And here is a view of the FREE hutch my brother and my dad got out of someone's garbage, hehe! Yes...I said garbage! I can't believe they were throwing out this awesome prim cupboard. It actually isn't going to stay here...my mom wants it in her kitchen. It really is one of the coolest prim items we have ever found.

Well I hope you all enjoyed my pics, I will share more of our other booth once we get over there to cheer it up a bit, hehe!

~*HaPpy NoVemBeR*~

Wow....November already!! Can you believe it? Ugh....now for the countdown to Christmas. :) My boys have already got their lists going. It will be here before we know it. I love this time of year though!

Well I have seen soooo many adorable pics of everyone's kids dressed up for Halloween. Unfortunatly my pics did not turn out....I am not sure WHAT is wrong with my camera! So I have my mom's now, if only I can get my boys to put their costumes back on for some more pictures. :) So if I can bribe them I will take some more and post them. Otherwise we had a GREAT time! The weather was just beautiful here! They didn't even have to wear a jacket. They of course got lots of goodies. I have already raided it and took MY favorites, hehe!

Well I hope you all have a pleasant week!

Take Care,
Laura
