Yay for Us

I know that this is a very small feat, but you know it’s the little things that matter the most! You might be asking yourself, what is it that she is so excited about?, my response to that would be “It’s all about the lights!”.

Taking full advantage of the wonderful weather we had this weekend Craig & I were able to get our Christmas lights up on the front of the house, of course they won’t be turned on until the day after Thanksgiving, but just the fact that we were able to get them up without freezing is enough to make me happy!

We also decided to replace last year’s lights with LED lights in hopes to keep the electric bill at a minimum. I’m still not sure how I’m going to feel about the bluish hue our cool white lights will have compared to the warm white ones, but since we couldn’t find the icicle lights in warm white we had to go with the cool white. I suppose we can go back to regular lights next year if I don’t like them. :)

Merry Christmas . .

and all of that good stuff. I have been so busy with RL stuff that I haven’t had much time to be crafty. I do have a couple of gift card holders that I made for Christmas that I am hoping to have posted soon. I was really thinking that 2009 was going to be the year that I would actually find the time to make birthday cards for my family and friends. The tricky part of that is to get them mailed out as well. I usually end up making or buying them, but then completely forget to send them out. Wish me luck!

Apparently Santa felt that I was a good girl this year because for Christmas I received a shiny new digital camera. I had read a few articles online about how great the Canon PowerShot SX10 IS was, so I figured I would put it on my wishlist. I also got a Digital Photography for Dummies book. Here’s hoping that I will be able to set aside some quality time to figure out all of the functions of my new camera.

Happy Halloween!

As many of you prepare your kiddies to venture out into trick or treat land, we would like to wish you all a safe spooky good time. Craig & I will be hanging out on the front porch at home handing out goodies to all the goblins in our neighborhood should they choose to cross the street for our home on an island. Have a great time!!

Don’t forget to light your jack-o-lanterns to ward away the evil spirits.

Happy New Year

Craig & I hope that you all have a safe and happy Halloween. We are planning on staying home to pass out treats to all of the little ghosts and goblins that will hopefully visit our house. If not we will have to eat the treats and that would not be a good thing. Happy haunting!!
