(sing it with me now)
deck the halls with sickly cherie.
cough.
sneeze.
blow your nose.
then hack a lung.
happy monday. hope you aren’t singing this song at your house! 🙂

also to answer your questions from yesterday…
i have the canon digital rebel xti. i really love it!
and i work mostly with adobe photoshop and illustrator.
loving the mac, although it is not compatible with everything and that can be frustrating sometimes. but it is so user friendly and fun to use!!
hope that helps!
a little something fun
so this was my big project lately…
A Year of Style 2008 Calendar at twopeasinabucket.com.
it’s a digital calendar kit that you print out and prop up in a cd jewel case. this has been by far my favorite project as of late. and with the fun little packaging from my sister-in-law, Rhonna…i just love how it turned out! 🙂
now, i’ve never really done this before but i’m feeling festive, so i want to do a little give-away of a packaged calendar kit. here’s the deal. if you want to throw your hat in the ring, leave your name in the comments and i will do a drawing tomorrow morning and send one out to the winner.
sound good? great!
a trip of thanks
the trip to california for thanksgiving was just the ticket. a perfect time to give thanks for many things. for our family–we met up with my mom and dad for the week. for our friends–we hooked up with some of our dear, lifelong friends. and for fun–disneyland, the beach, all things that i truly love and miss about cali. it was a fabulous week and i really can’t wait to go back for more.
here’s a few pics from the happy times.
check out ella’s face. not sure about this mouse guy.
can you see jeff in the front? i was a little slow on the shutter. dallin was with him on the other side.
a little cafe that jeff loves after surfing in ventura
i found a storefront in ventura with my name on it. coolio!
and the beach!
smelling
a little over a month ago i was at the mall and decided to browse the perfume counter. it has been many moons since i actually purchased a bottle. mostly because of the expense and i don’t really use it that often. and because it seems to take forever before it’s gone. and i’d probably never use it all before i got tired of it.
so after smelling around i decided to buy lotion instead. it seemed like a good compromise. or so i thought.
last week jeff and i went on a date. the first one in quite a while. of course, i felt like sprucing up a little. so i pulled out the lotion and slathered a little on.
as we were driving down the street. jeff starts sniffing.
“do you smell that?” he says. “something smells like bug repellant.”
(and it shall probably be many more moons before i again frequent the perfume counter.) 😉
my happy place
heading out this afternoon to my happy place!!!!
the annual passes are still good so we have to take advantage! i simply can’t wait…especially to enjoy all the christmas decor. no matter how many times we’ve been i am still giddy the moment i step off that tram. i feel like a kid every single time. magic. yes, they still know how to create the magic.
the best part is this. the kids have no idea we’re going. i’m picking up dallin from school today and we’re off. ah, i love surprises!
shhhh….. 😉
this must be recorded for future generations
ok, forgive me for the continued “bathroom” humor. but i had to write this down.
today.
i’m standing in the kitchen while ella is sitting at the counter. i passed wind (yes, i do this occassionally) 😉 and ella looks at me and says, “was dat you mom?”
and i said sheepishly “yes, ella that was me.”
then she looks at me and replies, “hah, das classic! dat shuw was.”
this little girl is older than she appears. 🙂
porcelain love
amy….i have found a new market for you to explore.
another funny thing i had to laugh at this morning.
just in case you need some style while in the loo.
how about a nice toilet tank decal from this etsy shop?
what will they think of next? 🙂
this is funny, honey.
saw this today and let out some good chuckles.
and the jokes about the barn? my thoughts exactly….
enjoy! 🙂
