Catch Up

Yet again it seems I have been ignoring this blog.... I have an excuse this time... We still dont have internet and home phone. I get a slow connection off of my husbands cell card but thats about all.... So I will try and do a mass update as to what my life has consisted of over the last month....

We went and picked up a couple of cats. We found evidence of mice in our Garage (Thank goodness its only the garage) and needed some good mousers!! So meet Mom (Chleo) and daughter (Zoey).





Lets see I also made a Diaper Cake for a friends Baby Shower.... She was due on Christmas day and had her daughter a couple of days before December!! Our babies would have been less then a month apart!!!



I also decided that since we have a big house now that we would host Christmas!! Was it ever fun!!! We had a Tobagan Run with a jump, A Snowman Building Contest and a Chinese Gift Exchange. As well as Turkey Dinner. I also spent 5 days Baking.......

Here's a couple of pics of the main level of our house, before anyone arrived! Don't mind the messy Kitchen, as I was cooking a few things...
Oh yeah and the Christmas tree was a tree cut down on our own property, 11 feet tall!







Here is a few pics of the baking I did...... Cashew Cookies with Butterscotch Drizzle, Hazelnut Caramel Chocolate Cups, Spritz Cookies, Chocolate Mint Stix, and Shortbread with a Kiss!






I think that about catches everyone up on the month of December! Oh wait its January now..... better get started on another post... lol!

Happy New Year Everyone!

This last year brings about great confusion for me..... Am I happy to see it go, or sad? One of the best things happened to me in 2010, but then a short month later the MOST tragic thing ever happened..... I will always love and remember you peanut, but I think I am relieved to see 2010 go and am hopeful for a GREAT 2011!!
