five things you don't know about me....

Thanks a lot Lexi, you've got my mom reading your blog and she told me you tagged me!

On a side note...can't wait to play with the vinyl cutter!!

Five things you don't know about me.....

Okay - it's too hard - I'm really an open book......

hair day

Got my hair cut on Friday, it was getting too long! Took Sophie with me and afterwards we went for soup at Panera's and then to the Strongsville mall. That is when I happened upon the store Moochie and Co.! All dog and cat STUFF! Couldn't resist the rhinestone hair clip for Bella and a cute pink leather collar!

hot chocolate and more...

Kids loved the hot chocolate and check out these cinnamon rolls I made while I was home!

snow play

We got a small amount of snow overnight - just enough for a snowball fight! Bella loves it too! I knew it was time to go in when the kids were asking for hot chocolate (they don't drink hot chocolate)! So we threw the cold, wet clothes in the dryer and made some hot chocolate!

organization

Found this perfect old printer's drawer! Held all my favorite stamps!

a new addition

Giving canines another whirl~ this one will stay little forever! Jacob named her "Bella", because she has a BELL on her collar and then (in his own words), he added an "a"! She is a 10 week old Shih Tzu, and this breed is supposed to be allergen free. The only one not so thrilled with her is Muffin, but in the last hour she has slowly crept around to sniff!

sorting through pix

Trying to recover from the holidays. The house was un-decorated yesterday, what a good feeling that is! I'm now in organization mode -- ready to work on my NEW YEAR goals!

Spent the day with Linda yesterday - she is looking great. So thankful to have her home and so thankful to be able to talk and laugh with her too! She managed a trip to the scrapbook store and even did some ordering!

Hoping to get holiday pictures developed and get started on their albums. I hope to start and finish our Cape Cod album in the coming weeks!
