Happy New Years

Happy New Years to you all! I hope you got to bring it in style, unlike me I got to bring in the New Year at work. It wasn't so bad, we had lots of food & bubbly!

Faith, My God Daughter

Saturday evening Stephanie came our & brought my god daughter,Faith, to visit. She has gotten so big since the last time I saw her. I cooked dinner for Stephanie, Faith, & Patrina. We were hoping to have some friends from my training class at Amex come over that got married but we were unable to locate them. I hope they are having FUN!!!! I just had to post the pictures of Faith eating the corn. I thinking she is teething because she wouldn't let the cob go, & I have the kernals on the floor to prove it. I also gave faith her Christmas presents, of course she is more interested in eating the paper.

Christmas Day

Today we got to finally enjoy our Cristmas morning for the first time since we have been together. I did have to work that night, but I got to enjoy most of it with family. We spent Christmas Eve with my family & Christmas day with Keith's family. I made scarfs for all of Keiths aunts they loved them so much, I even got a modeling from Aunt Kate, scarf with matching coats. I was glad to see they enjoyed they gifts. It seemed to be a long day & then I had to go home to get a few hours of sleep before heading off to work. Fun stuff!!!!

Christmas Eve

Today was a little crazy, I ran around with Nancy & them went home to begin putting everything together for the visitors we were having over that night. So I managed to stay up for a complete 27-28 hours in a row. Nothing new around my house, at least for me. I tend to get busy & then don't have time to lay it down. My cousin Cameron & her family came over along with my mom, Scott & Tara. I just served snack foods & it seem to be a hit. Keith & I racked up good with gifts, just to list a few: Hand made mosaic mirror, Sanford & Son season 1 DVD, Meet the Robinson's DVD, roster stuff for the kitchen,& Autozone gift card. I had a friend from work make Tara a black & white blanket to go in her room, & she LOVED it! I also gave her some cash & money for Disney World In January. I gave mom a new cell phone, saddle pad, flask, & some ornaments for her tree.

Shoppping

This week has been crazy, between work schedule & a baby shower. I haven't had much time to finish my Christmas shopping. Keith has been so wonderful by helping me out with any thing I ask. I gave him a list to go get at the grocery store & he came back with ever thing!! I have been busy wrapping this week & even went to the mall on Friday to get my friends burp clothes embroidered. You know I must really like her in order to go to the mall the last Friday before Christmas!! What in the world was I thinking!?!?! I even went during the day thinking it wouldn't be so bad, but I had to get out fast. I almost cussed out 2 people for ignoring me & not helping me. I just don't understand I am there to buy YOUR merchandise & you don't want to take my MONEY!?!?! So let me think about this I am paying you to treat me like CRAP!?!?! I don't think So!!! You can keep your stuff and ignore the next customer see if they are stupid enough to pay you to treat them like crap!! And on my way I went. I did end up going to Kohls & got a wonderful cashier who was making jokes!! OH my god, where did she come from GIVE HER A RAISE RIGHT NOW!!!!! And that ends my shopping for this week!!!

Pakino

Card night with Keith's family. We try to get together about 1-2 times a year to play Pakino, it's a mix of Bingo & cards. It normally ends up being the Ladies in the kitchen playing & the mens in the living room watching TV & talking about sports. I enjoy having them over because it gives me a chance to catch up with them due to my crazy work schedule.

Cookie Party

I hosted a cookie party at my house today. We had a wonderful turn out & everyone enjoyed themselves. There were so many kids every were, we had the 3 older boys in the nursery & the new baby's in the living room so everyone could watch them. I now know just how much weight my travelling pack in play can hold. There was 3 boys in there together, so I never have to worry if I have big kids. I was surprised with the turnout, Frankie even came!
