What????

You Don't Know Much About Christmas

You only got 4/10 correct

So you don't know all of the history and trivia of the holidays...
As long as you remember to put out some cookies for Santa, you're still ahead of the game.

Random Christmas fact: Only 21% of US households has a real Christmas tree each year.


I can't believe I didn't get more than that!!!

Getting back to the swing of things

Things in my little world have been so completely crazy. I don't even know where to begin. My mother is doing well. She had her lumpectomy and actually ended up going back this week to get a little more taken out since her margins weren't clear. A couple of her lymph nodes ended up being positive so she will unfortunately have to go through Chemotherapy. I know chemotherapy is actually a good thing, I mean think if we didn't have it, but it's still not going to be any fun for her. She is a strong women and will do fine :) Plus she has a positive outlook on it. It's our little joke, but every time we talk about it, we joke and whisper "cancer", like some old lady would :) I guess you have to be there, but it makes me giggle just thinking about it.

On a very sad note, Jeff's mother is also very ill with cancer. We got a phone call the day after Thanksgiving that she was put in the hospital. Unfortunately the cancer has spread everywhere. Poor Jeff has been back and forth to California to see her. So please say some prayers.

On a brighter note, the photography stuff has been booming. Lot's of families got their pictures taken for the holidays! I will have to post some for everyone to see.

On the scrapping front... I'm a guest girl for Dani Mogstad this month!!! I was so excited to be asked. She has awesome designs and I have been a HUGE fan of her stuff since I first started in this fun hobby! I did actually manage to get 2 pages done... don't faint!! Both of these kits are available at Sweetshoppedesigns.com


We are getting new wood floors installed this week and our house is full of fumes from the sticky stuff they poored on the floor this morning. I'm getting a huge headache and hopefully they won't find me gasping for air in the morning... hee hee!
Ok everyone, if you read all of this you deserve a treat!!
