christmas morning

 

my kids were pretty good this year

 

i have a TON of cute pix of marek...love this one :)

 

not as many of phoebe though...she wasnt very cooperative (like always) but she did give me this one...finishing out santas leftover cookies!

 

all dressed up for chrismas! hope everyone had a great day!!

drum roll PLEASE........

 

 

 

 

yes its FINALLY finished---game set match----this isnt even all the cards. i think i was working on 2 more when this pic was taken. another project i will NEVER attempt again...at least not in quadruplet. am i INSANE?!? i dont know the jury is still out on that one :)

the big UNVEIL...

 

 

this is the shopping buddy that ive been working on...made 4 of these actually and i will NEVER do anything like that again!! sooo much work...but it turned out pretty cute i think!

PARTY PEOPLE!!!

 

yep those are my two! you know they are mine bc they are the LIFE of the party :)

 

nope its not some weird criminal line up...its the whole class in santa drag!!

 

 

hmm i wonder if anyone will notice i stole this candy cane?!?!

christmas goodies

 

yep im the insano mom that decided she could wrap 30 juice boxes in foil to make them look like presents for the class party :) pretty snazzy huh?!

 

some choco lovely-ness

 

ginger snaps that always remind me of my gma...

 

this was one of the gift baskets i gave to mareks teachers. she is just amazing and i feel so lucky that mareks first experience with a teacher is an outstanding one

LOTS to blog about...

 

 

this was mareks christmas program...he had so much fun singing and dancing next to one of his best buds! i so felt like a mom that morning :)

what a way to start my day...

well ive only been up since about 3 am...cant sleep. dont know if its all the stuff i have to do keeping me up or what. but i just popped up out of bed like it was 9 am. so i decided that im up for the day. i got talked into working on my day off ** gag** im such a sucker. oh and i got jb weld on one of my fave shirts already today. i guess thats what i get for trying to craft at 4am! haha lets hope the rest of my day goes slightly better!

oh and heres what im listening to right now...old but just so so so good!

new ornament

 

every year i try to buy at least 1 new ornament for my tree. this one i found at target and im in LOVE with it...how cool would it be to put the kids wishlists in there year after year and see how they change?!?

'tis the season

....for complete and total PANIC!!! this is what im feverishly working on day and nite now...well actually 4 of these :) i know im nuts but its like a group project. im taking old recipes from an old relative that apparently was an AMAAZIMG cook and putting it all together in a collection for the family. none of the boxes are EXACTLY the same either so that makes it a little more difficult. ill post pics of the recipe cards later...they are pretty cute if i do say so myself :)

organized chaos...or just chaos??

ya so this is my kitchen table as of right now.and if you know me you know i function best when things are a bit unorganized :) haha there are several things going on on this table.....
*my christmas cards in 2 piles--1 with addys and 1 without
*halloween pictures that im trying to scrap
*christmas ornament project that i did with marek and phoebe this weekend that im trying to finish up
*marek's school pix that i have YET to hand out to everyone
*my christmas recipe box project is buried under there ...somewhere
*oh ya and my laundry is drying on the chair in the corner

so at this time im wondering...is this remotely considered orgaized chaos or just a flat chaotic mess?!?! im leaning toward mess
i think its time for an intervention :)

my wishlist

dont you just LOVE this bag?!?! it was definately love at first site for me. and they have this cute little line called "angry little girls" that i think was made SPECIFICALLY for me! love love love <3 anyway this is where i found the yummy goodness....
