My Daughters Letter To Santa

 I remember being a kid counting down for Christmas and getting so excited with every passing day. I remember marking off the calendar, playing with my unopened presents, and BEGGING my mom to let me open  one early. Now, as a Mommy, I watch my own babies going through the same thing. I now know what my mom went through. I smile most of the time as they look at their presents and sometimes get a little annoyed as they beg and plead to open one early.  This year I  got a chance to sneak a peak at my daughter's letter to Santa before he sneaks in Christmas morning and takes it with him.......Here it is folks spelling and all...

















  Dear Santa,

First merry Chirstmas. I hope you have a fun Chirstmas. Becuase I know that I am.I fill sad becuase you bring me gifts and I don't bring you   gifts.I   want for Chirstmas is a guitar, camera. The most I want for Chirstmar is Love it is all I care is about Love. Merry Chirstmas Santa                      

                                               Love
                                               Addison





                             Counting
                             Down!!!
Mom, who's present is this? Is this one mine? Can I open it?

I'm On Vacation!!!

Yep, I'm on vacation. Am I going anywhere you ask...NOPE!!! I just thought I'd take a vacation before I hurt someone at work so I could spend some time with the family. What do I have planned you ask...Well, Monday (the 6th) was my daughters 9th birthday and her and her sisters winter program. Tuesday the 7th (today) is my son's 16th birthday. I need to do some cleaning of the house. Plan on doing some crafts with the kids. I'm sure the kids will skip school a daycome down with something and have to stay home a day. It looks like there are a lot of twitter parties going on this week so I'm sure to be at a few of those. SOOOO I'm sure I will be posting pictures at the end of the week of my "stay"cation!!! If you have any ideas of what to do while I'm home let me know.

Adventures In Getting Followers

Okay so for months I've been blogging. I know months in blog world isn't really a long time but still. Every day I would look to see if I had any followers but none would come...well except I followed myself just to make myself feel better. Well, I learned a lesson. I've been doing this blog hop thingy and it works. Within a couple of days I have jumped to 5...well okay 4 since I can't include myself.  I know that's not a lot but I'm sure you bloggers with hundreds of followers remember how the first few felt. So today I figured I'd try the twitter hop



....Come join the fun
