A Work In Progress...

So we started this project at last months Country Bum Creations craft class. I LOVE IT! I think it is just the cutest idea. While almost everyone finished their projects that day I decided to wait until after the holidays... I am hoping Santa will bring us a new bedspread set so I can decorate the star to match it! :)

Everyone had such cute finished projects! Some used greenery and berries to decorate and others used flowers and fabric... I am hoping to use a little combination and make it one cute star- - - Stayed tuned for the finished project!!!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving!

More Than A Day
By Karl Fuchs
As Thanksgiving Day rolls around,
It brings up some facts, quite profound.
We may think that we're poor,
Feel like bums, insecure,
But in truth, our riches astound.

We have friends and family we love;
We have guidance from heaven above.
We have so much more
Than they sell in a store,
We're wealthy, when push comes to shove.

So add up your blessings, I say;
Make Thanksgiving last more than a day.
Enjoy what you've got;
Realize it's a lot,
And you'll make all your cares go away.


We hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Halloween!

Halloween was such a blast this year! We had lots of fun parties to attend and lots of catching up to do! With work and school we just don't get out enough- but when we do we sure have a good time! This year I dressed up as a pirate and Brett dressed up as a nerd! He was such a good sport and I have to say he was one sexy nerd! I am glad I snatched him up when I had the chance! This year we started the weekend off with a Pre-Halloween Party at Brett's cousin Peter's house. Peter and Sumer had one of the best costumes I have ever seen! They were Dog and Beth from "Dog the Bounty Hunter"! They were so funny and played the part all night! My goal for next year is to find Brett and I a fun couples costume! Then Saturday we headed to my parents for their annual Halloween Party. And another night of fun it was! By the end of the night Brett and I pretty much passed out! :) It was a good thing we had Sunday we rest and recuperate!

Mid-Terms... and the cold bug

Well, it's that time of year again... MID-TERMS! :(
That time of year when your ready to pull your hair out and start to wonder just why you put yourself through the torture of college! Stress, lack of sleep... and to think I have so much more left to complete! I had three mid-terms this year all back to back followed up nicely by the assignment of two large term papers. It was enough to send me into the psych ward but luckily my hubby was here to save me! He helped me study and get through a long week. And how do I repay him... well, I passed along the cold bug I had picked up during the week of craziness. Poor guy has been huddled up with me on he couch all weekend! Thank god for movies and cold medicine and SUPER FABULOUS HUSBANDS!
