Hello all!
Sorry I haven't posted this week yet, just busy with life! I am feeling GREAT and have quite a bit of energy. I think we all need it this time of year just keeping up with Christmas--decorating, baking, shopping! We got 3 trees up--one in the living room (the gingerbread tree), one in Raisa's room (she has a new white one with white lights decorated in turquoise and hot pink!) and one in Larson's room (mainly sports but a few other misc. stuff). We did not put our tree up in the dining room or the back porch this year. Kind of sad not seeing them, but I won't feel sad when it's time to take them down this year as I will be glad then we only have these 3! All my nutcrackers didn't make it up either, but they will be back next year. Hey, I am looking for a real good sugar cookie recipe to bake with the kids if anyone knows of a great one, email me! Raisa is going to make some oatmeal fudge too. YUM!
I am sending off the last order of Christmas cards this week if any of you had a session with me this past year and would like to order cards, or if you want to order any collages or photos for gifts, get those orders in to me by the first of next week.
Raisa and I started a Yoga class this week! It's very relaxing. I think we are going to enjoy it! I have been walking a few miles each day on my treadmill also. Got to stay in shape (or get in better shape hmmmm!).
I think we are going to head to Owasso or Tulsa Saturday to get some more Christmas shopping done. The weekend after that is Kevin's younger bother Donnie's wedding. Raisa is the flowergirl and Larson is the ringbearer (if we can get him into a button up shirt and if you know Larson, you know what I mean!).
Have a great weekend and email or post those sugar cookie recipies!
Thanks!!
