Well, hey there! I hope you all had a fantabulous Christmas. Ours was pretty good. Crazy busy all weekend, and lots of fun, but I'm so glad it's over. I'm gonna need the year to recover and be ready for the next one! Let's see...what all happened? Well, on Christmas Eve, we made our cookies for Santa. They look forward to that one every year. Then later that night, we had a stubborn Krista who insisted on waiting up as late as humanly possible so she could catch a glimpse of Santa. Ok, I'm gonna be as discreet as I can here since I don't know who's gonna read this (children over your shoulders, maybe?), but, really?! She's 12. We know what she was trying to do and better luck next year sister, cuz I set my alarm! First for 3:00, but when I heard movement responding to my movement, I tried 4:30. hahaha. I never saw this coming when we decided to have kids! Christmas strategizing...wow. So then we had a regular ol' chaotic Christmas day, with a wee nap thrown in so mom didn't go completely bonkers. Plus, I had to rest up for our ginormous family brunch in the city on Saturday. Shawn has a really big family and they have these crazy get togethers on holidays. It's a lot of fun, but even after 18 years, I have a hard time keeping everyone straight. And then, to top off our weekend, we went to the 49ers game on Sunday. The Christmas game has sort of become a family tradition. And even tho the weather surrounding the game was crappy (it rained for some people on the way), it was near perfect the whole time we were there. Phew! We've been busy. So busy that I made this totally unrelated card over a week ago (at like, 2 a.m. - don't ask!) and am just now finding the time to photograph it & throw it up on the old blog. And to think, I was looking forward to all my "down time" this holiday break so I could sit & craft. You'd think by now I would know better!

Is this little guy cute or what? Shoving that cupcake into his cheeks as fast as he can. And I love the color combinations! See, I can like soft tones, too. They definitely work for this image. Gee, maybe you can get crafting again when the kids go back to school? ha ha
