Saying Goodbye to 2010

2010 definitely had its highs and lows.

Some of the best parts of 2010 were Dan's first feature film being made and getting to see my girlfriends (Kirsten, Amber, Dani, Janine, Lisa and Shelby)!

I know 2011 will bring more ups than downs. :) But I'll say this, as long as I have my amazing husband by my side, great parents, 2 precious chihuahuas and wonderful girlfriends in my life every year will be fabulous.

Wishing each and every one of you a very Happy New Year!

Handmade Ornaments

I wanted to try my hand at making Christmas ornaments this year. I used plain ceramic ornaments (on sale at Michaels for about 60 cents), scrapbook paper, pictures, stickers and mod podge. :)

Our little personalized Christmas tree.

I just love my new ornaments!

The back of the ornaments.

This year we have decided to give handmade and homemade gifts for Christmas.

Dan and I (yes, I'll be assisting) will be making/baking all kinds of yummy goodies.

I made each family an ornament.

This crafty project was easy, inexpensive and they turned out oh so fabulous.

Go out and make your own ornaments!

Too much computer time?

Some seem to think so.

"Come on, Mom. Let's snuggle."

Holiday Card Craftiness

This year I wanted to make my own Holiday Cards. I made a little over 50 of them. And every single card is different. I'm happy with the way they turned out although I must say it was a lot of work!

I absolutely LOVED making them! I really didn't think I would love it as much as I did, but once I was done I found myself still thinking about making more and couldn't put the paper down. I just may have found my calling. :D
