It's here...in more way than one...

So...the big day is over!!! All the scurrying...baking...fretting....wrapping....sending....etc has come to an end...the big finale!!! Christmas morning.....My son had asked...."what do you need when you wake up so we can get right to the presents"....my response....COFFEE!!!! I'm not sure who was up earliest....me or the kids...so, I'll call it a draw....tried to go back to sleep...but NO!!! So...coffee it was!!

Once the coffee was made and disbursed...new batteries in the camera...everyone situated....the games began...I played Santa this year and passed out the gifts...we initiated a tradition very early on...we take our time, savoring each gift and enjoying what everyone gets!!! and then it was over.

We were truly blessed this year!! The Merriest of Christmases it was!!! I so love my family, cherish my new found health.....and am blessed with awesome friends!!!

Here is a little ditty I created for my hubbola for Christmas....using the AMAZING Pink Paislee...Cupid Collection....ohhhh the lusciousness!!! And he did like it!! When my new camera arrives I will create a my first video tutorial on how I made the paper flower. It should be here this week...YIPPEE!!!

PS....Happy and Safe New Year to all!!
