Busy, busy.

Seems as if we are all super busy lately.  Just wanted to post some pics and get the blog up to date.

First off, some pics of Tamara's jack o'lantern:




I wanted to do an outdoor container this year and the weatherman was predicting cold & snow temps over the next little while (and they were right!) so I decided to pick up some greens and prep my container and water the greens so they would stay fresh.  I also had some white branches and artificial branches with lights that I added as I wanted them all to 'freeze' in so they would stay.  Here's a couple of pics of my work in progress:




After a long and drawn out debate, I decided to leave my employment at the end of the month to be a full time Mom (Or at least only doing things, work, volunteering etc during Tamara's school hours - being available for Tamara more often in afternoons/evenings and weekends.  Working in the service industry doesn't always allow that.).  It was a tough decision as I liked the work and I liked the ladies I work with.  But it was affecting our home life and family comes first.  So I will be saying farewell to the ladies soon.  As we were entering the holiday season, I plan on giving a small gift (maybe a box of homemade Christmas cookies) and a homemade card.  I made a few cards and now I have to decide which ones I'm going to give away.  =)




And the last thing to post today is that I finished another scrapbook page with pictures from 2006 - Tamara's 11th birthday:






All caught up.  Enjoy!  =) Lisa
