Irresistible

The ornaments on some trees are getting down right enormous these days. So enormous that Beck couldn't resist putting his face right up in it. Just hilarious. For kids, it really is the most wonderful time of the year.

What???!?!??!!

So my almost three year old was watching TV and a Victoria Secret commercial came on and he said, "Nakit Booty." Um, those of you who know me know I NEVER say booty. Who taught my two year old what a booty is? I'm just going to blame it on PBS kids or something. If it was you, you should really fess up.

It's Coming Along

I learned this round on the pattern all by myself, it's just so cute I can't believe I'm making it! I still have a long way to go. There are so so so many rounds on each square.

Remember Back in February?
Back in February I was celebrating my 600th post on this blog. Here's the link to see that post: http://utvances.blogspot.com/2009/02/this-is-my-600-th-post-i-thought-it.html
Anyway, I had to make a completely homemade gift before the end of the year for the first 5 people to comment on that post. Well, I like to wait until the bitter end but I did it! I learned some new tricks this year and made some presents. 7 people actually commented and I'm going to go ahead and make 7 gifts but here's the first 5 I did. If you haven't received your gift yet, don't fret, it's coming baby! Hope you like them.

Just remember if you haven't already, you have to do this same thing on your blog too. Oh and a little sidenote. This is my 801st post! Maybe I'll celebrate my 1000th post.

It's The Little Things

This year we are not traveling to family for Christmas and no one is coming to us for Christmas. We're just us, our little party of four. I was looking through old movies and found this one and found myself smiling through it. I love how playing airplane can be the highlight of a Christmas vacation and make it so hilariously memorable. I love love love hearing my family laugh, they all have such great laughs...and use them freely. Merry Christmas Family!

Project & Help

This a baby blanket I'm working on in crochet club. Beck has become very interested in the yarn for this project. He always tells me he's helping.....(is he?) But my favorite part is how he likes to support the sheep & wool industry by wearing his sheep costume while he's crocheting. He's so awesome.

I Just Might Try This......

next time I go to the library. I'm curious what would happen. Hmm, I need to find a wider isle than that.

Thankyou Kug for Another Great Holiday Movie!

This is Where Whit Lives.

I'm not going to lie. There are days when I lay in the hot steamy bathtub and pretend I have her life. I love living vicariously through her and then waking up into my air conditioning and my big comfy couch to watch all my lame court shows on. I too have a good life.

But her home is incredible to comprehend. I show Carson the pictures and I talk all about our trip we're going to take to Costa Rica. Talk of Costa Rica happens all the time around here. We've learned so much already and haven't even gotten there yet! But as a mom it's fun to see your kids are paying attention. A few days after showing Carson where my sister lives, he built his own little Coast Rica fort....iguana and all. Man he's awesome.

And you know Costa Rica is talked about a lot when Beck pulls the game Pictureka out of the closet, holds it up and says, "Costa Rica!"
