It's Been To Long

I can't believe it has been almost 3 months since I last posted. Alot has happened and I am not sure where to start. Well let me start in November. I was extremely busy with the boutique. I made these little turkeys and put them down there, I told the owners of the boutique about an idea that a friend gave me to put letters of the names in the family on each feather and use them as a place settings. Well when they told costomers about this they were "GOBBLED" up so fast I couldn't keep up with demand. I made a grand total of 120 turkey and sold every last one of them. I even had a lady ask if I could make about 15 more the day before, and I just had to say no sorry but I would really like to enjoy the holiday! So next year I am planning on making a ton of them.
Here is a picture of the cute little guy!

Our first Thanksgiving with Jaxson was so fun he was the hit of the table. I am sorry but I forgot my camera so I have no pictures of him. My Bad!! But we had a great day and we found out that he doesn't like mashed potatoes and gravy very much. But I am sure that will change next year!

We had a great time on Black Friday. It actually started for us on Thursday night at 10:30 in Walmart waiting in this HUGE line for 2 hours (well ok and hour and a half)
waiting to get our hands on some movies. We actually got all the ones we waited for. But I have to tell you, it is crazy in there! I had this little lady slug me in the gut just to get out of this huge crowd. I was like "SERIOUSLY" then just had to laugh as I made my way out. We ended our black friday early Friday morning, which is very unusaul as I like to stay out till 1 or 2 in the afternoon. But since Ihad started the night before I was very tired and needed some sleep so I got home around 10am and crawled into bed for a couple of hours nap.

Then came December, again I was very busy with making things for the boutique. I made a ton of stuff and made alot of money. Which I was vey happy with I decided that I am saving the money up for the S.U convention this year in July.

A couple of days before Christmas we decided that we needed to get our Kitty Lucy a friend, So kaylene and I and Reese had the day off (very unusal for all three of us to have the day off at the same time) so off to the Humane Society we went. We were going there for a certain kitty named Coal, but when we went up to his cage he showed no interest in us at all. So we looked around and I spotted this cute little thing and Reese took her out of the cage and before I knew it Reese was up at the counter signing papers. So this is the newest member of our family...

Sophie!

They love each other!!! This is Lucy and Sophie.
We took her to the vet for a free check up, then a bath at Petco and brought her home to meet her big sister Lucy. Well at first they just wanted to bite each other but after a month they are the best of friends. We had to deal with a sickness with Sophie she got Coxcitia which is really bad for animals and we were all sad thinking she might give it to our little Lucy or worse she might die. So we had to lock Sophie away in the bathroom for 10 days, and boy was that a struggle. But happy to report that after the 10 days were up we went back to the vet and the Coxcitia was gone and she is so happy to be back with her sister! Thank goodness for STRONG antibiotics.


Our first Christmas with Jaxson and I was so excited to spoil my one and only grandson. It seemed like everytime I went out shopping I always found more stuff for him. Someone asked me what I was getting for him and I simply replied everything!!! Kaylene informed me that when they were kids they never got this much stuff, ha ha ha! Yep I am a grandma and I love it!! Here are some pictures of him.

Here he is picking out his Present! He was so cute in his Santa outfit!

He is so excited to open his gift!!!

He just loves to pose for the camera!!


We had so much fun with him. And he got everything he wanted and more.
Here is our family photo..



Christmas came and went so fast, and before we knew it here was the New Year. We didn't go out or anything, we got some pizzas and spent the evening playing games on the Xbox Kinect and WII.


Since then I have been very busy working on Valentines (yes you heard right, Valentines) for the boutique.
If you want to see the projects and cards that I have done you can click on my crafting with Tammy link and check it out. I haven't posted anything yet but give me a day or two and I will.

I joined a biggest loser contest. The prize money is unbelievable so I hope I get something, if not i would just be happy to lose the 15 lbs that I really want off. Kaylene and I bought a rec pass and now we work out a little more and we just started Zumba classes with some friends and having a great time doing it. Which I never thought I would. So hopefully I'll lose some weight!


Well I think thats it for. If I remember anything more I will post it later.
