Happy Holidays!

I'm getting a jump on the new year resolutions and starting this new blog. I've actually been blogging since 2005 and have taken my blog in different directions over the years. I was a long time typepad user but have recently realized that some widgets, posting issues and comment options have led me back to the simple/faithful blogger. Also, who can beat FREE?!?! lol

This blog is going to be a mix of my family time, my creative happenings, business ventures, online selling (i {heart} Etsy and use eBay from time to time). I've tried seperating all these venues in the past and it's left me with several blogs that I neglected. Time for a change....looking forward to 2011! Are you with me? :)

Happy Holidays!

Just a couple weeks until Christmas!  Are you ready???  I'm still searching for a few gifts but other than that...bring it on. :)


I was running behind with my holiday decor this year and just.now.finished decorating.  Similar to last year, our 8ft tree is adorned with black, silver and red.  I'm a fan of regal decor but it's soooo not me so this is my version for 'where I come from'. lol

Family 027.3.5 
(love this skinny tree that someone left out at the curb last year.  It told me to bring it home. ;) )
