Pretty much snowed in....











The hub just went out to.....I am thinking this wasn't such a good idea as I noticed two cars have gotten stuck in the snow outside......let's hope he can make it back! And all for a chicken to roast....:D





I am working on some newbies.....
This is a view from my porch......
Oh and frozen chalk...

Merry Sprinkles


The kids are rocking out to The Chipmunk versions of new songs and the cookies are cooling :D

MerryMerry the kids have another snow day and Christmas break starts, too




School was called off for the third time this week! Ahhhh, I was hoping to get some secret shopping done today. Darn. Tomorrow we are supposed to have major snow, so today I really need to get things done! I'm always last minute!


Here's my effort at holiday decoration....I didn't get too much done, but I have this small part of the kitchen decorated somewhat :D


Don't be fooled the lower shelves are a mess with all my packing supplies! One day I will have a practically perfect cottage home. Someday :D

A Haunted Christmas
















This what you get when you give the camera to one of the kids and do the driveby christmas lights thing :)
I like em!
Oh!! What to get the kids???? For Christmas? I mean they never really play with the toys they ask for or get. When they do it isn't as the toy is intended! It's always a joke to get the kids cardboard boxes and it's the truth! I went online to look for some cardboard houses, ya know? And it pisses me off that they want 80 some odd bucks for a cardborad house! Come on. It's cardboard, dammit. It's a plain cutout. I can see spending 25.oo on a cardboard house but this business about 80 bucks just makes me so mad! The nerve. Anyway, I had to let that out.

I was noticing in my Etsy shop that I do not have the variety of plush that I have had because of sales :)
I am feeling the need to bring in some different styles. I have a boatload of past doodles that I think I will work from.
We've had snow in Portland lately but no real pile up of it! I want a really white Christmas!! We shall see what the rest of the week brings.

I hope everyone is having an enjoyable December :)

Who's a dud?











Me. I need a swift kick in the behind. I'm such a poor blogger! Everyone else has Christmassy cheer happenin' .




Here are a few shots of our handmade christmas ornaments.
Now we gotta go to Blockbuster...we need some christmas shows and such. :)
