In the Christmas Spirit...

Well I have been in the holiday spirit the last few days. I have made sure we have all of our holiday shopping done and all presents wrapped. I have also been making some goodies to take with us to Christmas with my family in the next few days. I thought I would share a couple pics of the delicious things I made...

I used vanilla almond bark to cover the pretzels and then used red sugar glitter to cover them

These are crazy cake cupcakes (see my post on Jason's birthday cake for description of cake) & homemade icing sprinkled with crushed candy canes


I also can't pass up the opportunity to share a picture of my cute little fur baby with her new Christmas present toy (it has a place to put an empty water bottle in it--she loves to chew on bottle like that)...it is perfect for her!! She got it a little early because she went to the groomer yesterday (which she hates) and we wanted to give her something to be happy about rather than mad at us for taking her there.


Love this little puppy so much...she is so spoiled!!


I hope everyone is having a wonderful holiday season!!


MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!!

10 Days till Christmas...

I love when so many stores have such great sales going on for Christmas and the Christmas money I still have left to buy said sale items. A couple months ago I went shopping at The Limited with some friends and one of them had a coupon and there were some shirts on sale...So of course I found a couple (well one type of shirt but in two different colors) and got them. Well of course I have come to love these shirts. So when I saw that The Limited was having a FRENZY sale yesterday and said tops were going to be 50% off I knew I needed to get more of them in other colors. So you can only guess what I did...bought that same shirt in the rest of the colors I didn't have ( hehe). So you can see how cute, comfy and able to wear with so many different styles this shirt is here ya go


I am looking forward to getting these shirts soon!! Now back to Christmas...I have all of my shopping done and I am so ready for some time off work and time with family in Ohio!!

Hope everyone is having a great week!!


Happy Holidays Everyone!!

Christmas Shopping

Well it is December 5th and I have almost all of my Christmas shopping done. Just a few loose ends to tie up and we will be good to go. Christmas celebrations for us have already begun...last week I went to Nashville/Goodlettsville, TN for my company holiday party. We had dinner and a game at Amerigo's in downtown Nashville. The food there was good...definitely left full...however I do wish I had had the chance to get some San Antonio Taco Co. while I was there. Oh well next time I am in town I will definitely hit it up. We played a survivor game and my team won!! It was nice to get to see my coworkers since we only see each other like 2-3 times a year. Next on the list for Christmas events is Christmas with the Tucker's this coming weekend. We will be spending time with Jason's side of the family for the weekend. Excited to see the kiddos and the adults too!! Then we are off for a couple weeks and then we head to celebrate Christmas with the Hodge's. So looking forward to all this time with family!!

By the way...since Jason has been able to use his Christmas/birthday gifts since this past spring he gave me part of my Christmas early...

It is the start to the Willow Tree Nativity set I have been wanting for a while...I love it!!

Hope everyone is having a wonderful start to your week!!


Happy Holidays!!
