Happy New Year

Well another year come and gone. Some good memories, some not so good. But we made it through to 2008. Not being one for resolutions I am just going to continue on my quest for a peaceful life creating art. Having my own studio in our new home will be a big plus as well as making it easier not to have to clear off the dinner table everytime we eat.

My hope for you all is a happy prosperous 2008. Be well.

These handsome young men are my three wonderful sons on Christmas Day. They are my blessings and I love them very much.

Merry Christmas

Well another Christmas has come and gone (almost). We had a wonderful family day with all the kids here and my parents are here. This was the first Christmas that Erik had the Santa thing happening. Although he still doesn't get it to the fullest yet. Justin had to go home today but I am sure glad he was able to come for Christmas. It was good to see him and Matt together again.

Hope all of you had a good Christmas and have a good New Year.

Having fun in Phoenix

Well here we are and so far things are going okay. Still lots of unpacking to do but it will have to wait until after Christmas. We have all our kids coming in as well as my parents. There will be 10 of us here and will it ever be jumping. We are having a family picture taken on the 23rd, so I will post one so you can all see us in our glory. It will be the first one since Erik was born (he's 4).

Okay now for the fun part. Last Friday night Dave and I went to see the Rastafarmers (Kathy Cano Murrillo's husband's band) and they were fabulous. Well worth the 45 minute drive to get there. It was a kind of Christmas thank party. They were giving away cool door prizes and Kathy had a couple of her Christmas trees she made for her LifetimeTv.com webisode deal. Well I brought her one of my trees I have been making for years and she gave me one of hers. It is really cool. The photo is of me and her trading trees. She has some great stuff going on, check out her blog at www.craftychica.com

As I have said many times before I am going to really try hard to post something at least four days a week. Maybe if I start there it will grow and I will post everyday. I doubt it but you never know. Hope the holidays are treating you all well.
