So please keep all of us in your prayers.

Here is an adorable Santa gift card holder. My dear friend Lori found these and helped me put it together. Simply a piece of Red paper, a few different Stampin' Up punches and black ribbon and gold paper for his belt loop, and white scallop on the bottom. I made a few of these to dress up my Xmas gift cards !!
Well that is about 3 post's for today. That makes up for all of the days I have been tooo busy. I had alot to share.. just not enough time to do it.
A bit of Xmas here at our home
Well I have a huge while planter box on the front of our home. That is the length of our bay window. So I found a cheap and cute way to dress up that planter box. At Menard's I found these small tree's and plastic bulbs. I hot glued the bulbs on there. I also need to attach some flashy garlen on it as well.
Our Nephew Parker
Yesterday we got to see our new Baby Nephew, Parker !
His Mommy is a Packers Fan and see he was ready for the foot ball game yesterday. We is soo good and sooo cute and Auntie Angie got some quality time with him. It was alot of fun. It was nice to visit with Family. Steph had also made some YUMMMY pumpkin bars that we got to snack on as well.
After that we headed to the In - laws house to chat with them for a bit as well. It was a busy Sunday afternoon.
Hope all of you in Mn are staying warm. It sure is a chilly one out there !

Busy day Off
Today I took the day off of work. I had planned on stamping all day long and getting at some of the xmas projects I wanted to get started on. I have one small items almost done ! But still have a few yet to go.
I got up and got ready and ran some errands... did a few things around the house had some lunch and the last little bit I have been getting some Xmas gift organized. See, I have already been shopping for a few months already. Picking up items here and there as I go along. So today I sat and went thru my rubber maid tote I have been putting everything in. To see what I have gotten everyone thus far. So ... I decided I would go dig out my new gift bags I picked up last year on all the holiday sales and start filling them. That way I can keep track and see easier what I have gotten and what I still have left to get.
So ......here are a few fun shots I took... to get in the Holiday Mode... of some of my few gift bags I am going upstairs to fill.
I hope you are all able to start doing you're Holidays shopping. It seems much less over whelming when you can do a little at a time rather then all at once.

Hello Everyone....
Its been a busy weekend.... just trying to get some xmas ideas done and ideas and things like that.
Jes has been busy cleaning and organizing our 3rd stall so we can get our boat inside for the winter.
Friday night we vegged and watched some movies and spent time together.
Sat I worked on my cards below and tonight I finished them up with doing all the layers and coloring for the tan car on the front. This card was alot of cutting with a total of 7 layers. But worth it.
I hope everyone at work really likes my cards for the exchange.
I never have enough 'man' or 'guy' cards so that is usually what I make.

Now tomorrow I am off work and I have an extremely busy week. I have something going very night. This weekend I am meeting with Friends for another day of stamping. So I will need to get packed for that. I am also intending to work on Xmas cards. So I need to cut paper, and find my design before I go.
It is a chilly 25 here tonight in Mn. The high today was just a few degree's more then that.
Hope you had a good weekend....

Family Get together
Well it is Sunday and I most certainly did not gain my extra hour of sleep. Woke up at 3am with a bad head ache and can't sleep since! On my much Happier Note.. we had the family over last night and had a good time and a fire and all. It got a bit chilly for some reason a wind came up. But it was still fun ! I had my camera on the charger and forgot to take it off and take some pic's. So I dont have any to share. Even my Grandpa came for a visit from the nursing home ! It was nice to see him and he loved to look at all the people amd Halloween decor that we had out!
Hope you all have a good day.
Remember to change your clocks !
