A very Merry Christmas!

I want to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year... I can say that this year has been one spectacular year for me... and Christmas has ended the year well. I was able to spend Christmas eve with my husbands mom's side of the family, and Christmas Day with his dad's side of the family. His family from all around California was able to gather for a great celebration. Besides having a great time with family, and WAY to much food, I was spoiled with too many gifts as usual... but I got a few things I really was hoping for! My dad got me the Ott-lite I had been wanting for a very long time. So now when I go scrapbooking, I have a portable light to take with. My hubby got me a new cell phone, so I don't need to curse my old one out, that was on the fritz. And it has a camera on it, which I truly missed when I had switched over to a BlackBerry. And one gift that has been on my wish list for years, finally came true... I got a doggy! His name is Spyder... he was rescued from a home where the owners had to move into an apartment. The origional owners had rescued him from the pound... he is the sweetest border collie. Here is a photo of him playing with one of his many toy's. He loves balls! And will never stop playing catch (especially with my hubby, LOL)

Home sweet home!

Well, its been a hectic month, of painting, fixing, packing, and moving to our new house! We are officially living in our first home... Though it is furnished with not much more than stacks of boxes! Our move went pretty easy, othwer than the fact that the moving truck was a tad small... We had our kingsize mattress strapped to the back of tyhe truck, and we still have a bit of stuff to get from our rental! Our goal is to have things fixed up in the next month so it is ready for our first set of visitors... My dad and brother.

Last night we hoked up our new washer and dryer... Who knew that we would sit and watch it was our clothes for 10 minutes! We were so impressed with how quiet our new Electolux appliances are! It was very easy to figure out as well. There are so many options for washing clothes...

Besides moving I've been busy with holiday preparations, as we'll as releasing a sneak peak of the next kit over at www.urbanianthology.com/forum ... Its going to be a fantastic kit once again... :)

I hope every has a very merry Christmas, or a happy holiday for those that have other celebrations this time of year!

Take Care and be safe!
