Goodbye Nursery

Weston has completed his two years in nursery and now he will be in primary with me and his brother. It is very emotional for me to see my "little baby" (who's 3 1/2 yrs.) walk into the primary room with his arms folded and sit in the front row like a big boy.

Here is the picture he recieved his last day.

These are his teachers, Sister Spohn and Sister Holland.

My Wreath

I had an old mini-me wreath that I had made from our "apartment/condo days". This year I thought I would up-grade my wreath. So, I took a few hours and put together this. My theme was trying to use non-traditional colors. I like it.

Fwee..Fwoo (Whistle)

Here is what I have been working on for the HOLIDAYS...
The "CANDYLAND" tree
The boys hang their ornaments on this one
The multi-colored lights really make it spectacularThe Gumdrop star ornament is a new fav this year
The "PEPPERMINT" tree
Love the new BUCKET-FULL of MINTS ornaments

Introducing..... "SUGAR & SPICE" tree

It's my new super tall tree that I got for my birthday/Christmas present.

Love it, love it, love it.

I bawled like a baby when I took out my new
BABY of 2007 "Sent from God", Snow Baby ornament
My mom got it for me last year, isn't it soooo precious.

Ward Party with Santa

They both asked for rockets?

They haven't heard about the recession obviously.

Weston wasn't scared this year!

Ok, there was a problem with the clippers...
yadda, yadda, yadda..
Joshua has a "Mohawk" for the next two weeks.

New Cuts

I know I cut my hair different all the time ....

Growing it out (Jan- April)

Bangs (April - Aug)

Growing it out (June -July)

The razor cut, 4.5 inches off (Aug-Nov)
You can see the back with the mirrors..cool.

New cut (Nov- ?)
But, I loved every cut...... I just love change too.

And of course I'm still growing it out...

New Family Pictures

I already picked out my Christmas cards, so you will have to wait to see which one was chosen!
