New Look. :)

I was up pretty late last night following the directions you can find HERE

on how to put the swirly fonts in your blog titles.

It took me a hot minute but, I love it!

And the snow.

I just googled "snow on my blog" and it gave me the code.

For someone who knows nothing about html.

I am pretty happy with myself.

You can't see me but, I am big cheesing on this side of the Mac.

:)

{{see}}

Hope this Tuesday finds you happy. I am getting the cards all out today!

I can't wait to show them off. They came out so sweet.

I just wanted to say a big thanks to The Bowlings plus One for the inspiration and help with my new look.

I will post tonight about our Christmas with Nana and Grandpa tonight.

I have a funny story about this toy...

Home At Last.

It was a fun weekend.

It was a busy weekend.

Papa and Nuna's on Saturday.

Grandpa and Nana's on Saturday night and Sunday a.m.

Bobby and CC's Sunday Night.

Sunday Evening Home at Last.

We park the car open the door and this is what we see...

He loves this hat.

He looks in his mirror and say's...

"Hi, At"

{{ Hi,Hat }}
Then we see this smile.
and all is right in the world.

Hope you all had wonderful weekends.

Updates and pictures to come about ours.

Guess who is 6?

How did this day happen? Where did the time go?

Our Sweet Sissy Turned 6!

We celebrated Mar-Bear's sixth birthday on Thanksgiving this year.

How fun that every 7 years we are not only Thankful for her

but, we get to have Thanksgiving Dinner.

That's a lucky chick in my book.

Sissy informed me that she needed to have a cookie cake for her birthday

it was the only kind that would do. So off to the mall we went to get her favorite cake.

She informed the Cookie Lady "It just needs to say "6" and I guess it can have dots."

She is so funny.

Some fun things about Marah now.

She just finished up her season as a cheerleader. She did amazing.

Who knew she was such a showman.

Some other things she loves are...

The trips to the Zoo.

Snuggling with Bub's

I guess some things never change.
and...

COOKIE CAKE!

Whoo Hoo.

and

Yayy for Sissy!
We love this girl more than words.

Speaking of Santa...

Did you know I have Santa's phone number in my cell phone?

Just ask Marah.

I do.

Mommy Talk.

{{I am a firm believer that fairy tales are good for the world and in this house hold we think they are A-Ok.}}

{{So No, Nay Saying over here. K? K.}}

Anyhow.

I called Nick (aka. Santa) and asked him to make Jackson and Marah

special video's this year.

Pretty Neat huh?

Jackson's Video...

Marah's Video...

Enjoy watching

You can "Call Santa" for your own HERE.

Hi Santa

Hope this makes you smile.

His voice always puts one on my face.

Here are the "Santa's" Jackson say's hi to everyday.

Hawaii Santa in his play room.
Santa's in his tree
Baby Santa

His favorite Santa
So this is why the tree is a big "Hi, Santa" spot in our house.

10 things I L.O.V.E Monday

I got this idea from a great blog...

A Beautiful Mess

it is so full of whimsy and fun.

Seriously I just love checking in and reading

what new things she has created.

So with out further ado...

10 things I L.O.V.E

1.

Spending all afternoon yesterday in bed watching Christmas stuff on t.v.

{Sesame Street Christmas}

So Cute!

with my two favorite guys.

2.

Christmas lights everywhere as we drive home at night

{{the more the better in my book}}

3.

Chips & Salsa

{{but, you have to let me pour salt on the chips.}}

4.

Some of us were talking the other night

about old songs that never get old.

This Song.

NEVER GETS OLD FOR ME!

5.

Vicky S Hoodies.

If I could have found a Saints one, it would have been on here

**12 N 0 LA**

{{Who Dat}}

but, still a home team.

6.

Sparkly Shoes.

{{not practical with my day job}}

but, I love them

:}

7.

Craft Rooms.

We have no space. I don't have much time but,

they inspire me none the less
8.

Etsy.com

Ugh, I die. It's amazing.

Each and every one of ya.

Dun Du Dun Du

Did that sound like the Jaws theme?

That's what I was going for.

Jackson and I got a really neat opportunity to go and check out

the new shark exhibit "Planet Shark" at the Aquarium.

They invited some blogger's to come and check it out.

Aunt Sash came home from Athens and we made a day out of it.

The exhibit was very neat. I learned a lot about Sharks and shark attacks.

We got to see some neat movie paraphernalia.

Even some things from JAWS.

A gigantic frozen Mako Shark (super cool), and teeth. Lots and lots of teeth.

Getting Ready to go in.
Teeth and jaw's (not Jaws haha)

Sash and Bub's checking things out.
The Hall of Attacks

Movie sized cage...
Life Sized Cage.

No wonder the sharks look so big in the movies.
A piece of a protective suit. It was very heavy.
Yayy.

So here is my overview.

Planet Shark was very cool. It was interesting and entertaining.

Not kid friendly. They don't advertise that it is but, I just wanted to throw that out there.

All in all it was very nice and I'm glad we got the opportunity to go. I would encourage anyone even remotely interested in sharks to check it out.

Thanks Planet Shark!
