Greetings & Salutations…

29 Dec

Greetings Everyone!!!

Have you missed me??? Ya right!

Well I haven’t posted in a long time, what can I say…I have no good excuses except the holidays got the best of me…and they should right???

The kid’s are on Christmas break till the New Year & we are all enjoying our time together.

We have been “trying” to catch up on sleep, playing with all the Christmas goodness, hanging out & just being low key. I can certainly say that I personally DO NOT miss making lunches & running around like a mad woman in the morning trying to get the kid’s to school for 8AM.

We have watched some movies. Billy & I watched Julie & Julia, I remember when this movie came out in theatres & I really wanted to see it, now that I did I realized it wasn’t that good, kind of disappointing.

Than I took the kid’s to see Alvin & the Chipmunks: The Squeakquel. OMG, what a funny, cute movie! I think I was laughing more than the kid’s were!

(500) days of Summer…another crappy movie I thought, I don’t know maybe I just wasn’t in the frame of mind to really appreciate it.

Precious, what a disturbing movie.

and onto crafty things, I made these for Brenda-Lee’s dinner table (our lovely host for the evening!), everything coordinates, isn’t it lovely??? The table looked soooo pretty.

We were hoping to put chocolate in the containers that matched also but, these little cups are hard to fill with chocolate. Brenda-Lee filled them up with smarties.

Table Toppers Christmas

I made 20 of them & the good thing is that they are recyclable.

Here is what they looked like on the dinner table.

I found the instructions for these treat cup holders here (scroll down a bit) & I just modified it to only use 2 treat cups.

So really that’s all I’ve been up to! I hope you are all enjoying your holiday season.

    You didn’t like 500 Days of Summer? The husband and I both really enjoyed that one. And as disturbing as it will be, I want to see Precious….
