Totes

Okay so here is one of my first sewing attempts. I made little totes for the girls for Christmas. I think they turned out okay, and I enjoyed doing them.
Here are a few pictures of the final project.

My Blog

Okay so I just got awarded an " I love you blog award" from a good friend of mine... Thanks Tiffany. I too am so addicted to blogging, but that's a good thing right? I have never kept a journal and now I have a blog with pictures... even better. Thanks to everyone that reads my blog.

Here are the rules: I get to {heart} seven other blogs that I love reading. If your blog makes my list, you get to post your award, thank the person who gave it to you (that's me!) and then choose seven other blogs that you feel deserve this awesome award. It was definitely hard to choose just seven, but those are the rules. And the awards go to...

Happy Birthday Grandma Stevens!

Okay so the pictures are out of order and I was tired of trying to fix them. Anyway yesterday we took my Grandma Stevens (who has been bedridden for that last year after her heart surgery) to the mall for her 82nd birthday. We had a great time and she enjoyed looking at all the Christmas decorations and seeing all the hustle and bustle of the Christmas shoppers.

This is Anni in a super star moment.

We got Grandma all ready to go
She was all dolled up. Super cute.

Going down the Mall.
It was so fun to get her out of the house for awhile, and I'm sure it was nice to get out. Happy Birthday Grandma. We love you so much.

My Sweet Grandma Lane

I know this is a terrible picture but I need it on my blog for family. This is my sweet grandma Lane that was admitted to the ICU right before Thanksgiving. She was receiving chemo treatments and was almost finished when we found out that she had a hole in her bowel. The Doctors went in for emergency surgery and said they were able to repair it. She is recovering well and is getting better and better each day. I admire her for her strength and her will to fight. I love you Grandma. We pray everyday that the Lord will make you whole. P.S sorry for posting this picture. I will hopefully get some better ones when you heal.

Exhausted

This is what happens when you drag the kids all around town trying to get things done. Hahah funny.

Christmas Tree

Okay so our tree has been up since before Thanksgiving... but I am now just getting around to blogging about it. We had a very very busy Thanksgiving with a lot of family and fun. I was also in charge of our Ward Christmas party so I decided to put the tree up WAY early and man was I glad I did. Here is the out come of our tree. We call it our Candy Cane Tree since we did white and red lights this year.
