Carriage entrance

Kick Tap


Mike Cook (this year, he will perform at Mesa Arts with his daughter Maya) You don't want to miss it!



The infamous Soldier number. It's a crowd favorite.




Another favorite "Here comes Santa Clause".
(That is Kai up in the air)
Just 23 more shopping days left until Christmas! I have not even started shopping yet. I need to make my list and check it twice. I already know what Buddy is getting me, and it has something to do with an apple, a bitten apple. : )


Kai gave me her list on Sunday, and it's not very long. This year, she had The Humane society on her list, and added St. Jude's Children's Hospital to her list as well. She never seizes to amaze me.


Nachito has not even started a list. Every once in a while, he mentions something. I really need to start paying attention. No charities in his vocabulary. Those two are like night and day. I need to change that.
The Spirit of Christmas!!!

16 more days until The Spirit of Christmas!!! I can't believe that the show is just around the corner. I'm frazzled trying to gather up Kai's costumes. I'm making a list for that too, except that I'll need to check that list off more than twice. I know that in the past I have mentioned how amazing this show is. Unfortunately, ticket sales are slow. I'm attaching a link to a video that was made especially for advertisement. Please watch it, and if you don't have anything to do on December 17th or 20th please go watch this show. A lot of hard work goes into putting this production on. Watch the video here. Tickets are still on sale through Ticketmaster. This will be Kai's fifth year performing in the show! She can't wait!
And while I'm on the subject of Christmas, here is a link to my favorite Christmas song. I love, love this song. And if this song can't get you in the Christmas spirit, then Ba, Humbug to you!!
Happy December!!!
I almost forgot......I saw the best movie this weekend! I highly, highly recommend it. On Friday night, while the kids watched New Moon. Karen, Holly, Mike and I went to go see The Blind Side. I was moved to tears. It is such a great movie. I loved it so much, that I made Buddy take me on Sunday afternoon with the kiddos. And, the best part about it, it's a true story. When we got home on Sunday after the movie, Buddy was watching Sunday night football, and Michael Oher was playing. Very touching, go see it. Sandra Bulluck does an amazing job, as does hottie, hottie Tim Mcgraw. And since I'm going link crazy today, here is a link to the official trailer.

I so want to go see the Spirit of Christmas at the Mesa Arts Center, but do you think my kids would like it? I have a 3, 5 and 10 year old.

Christmas Canon is one of my favorites too! I've got to get that song put up on my blog! I tried to go to the Blind Side, but it was sold out on the night my hubby and I had a babysitter. It looks like I'm going to have to wait until the 12th to see it! Happy December to you!
Ah...these pics are fabulous. Thanks for sharing. Happy December!!!

Here are pictures of the invitations for Kassie's 13th Birthday party. I had so much fun making them. Hum...maybe because I used my three favorite colors, maybe because I like to make invitations, or maybe it's just because I LOVE to plan parties. Either way, here is a sneak peak. Sorry the pictures are so bad, my camera is dead and I used my phone.

Good things come to those who wait...

I was having one of those bad Mondays. One of those Mondays when everything seems to be going wrong. 1. Our phones at the office are not working. 2. Statements went out over the weekend and angry patients are calling to complain. 3. My coffee got cold and I had to throw it away, and now I have a caffeine headache. 4. My cell phone has been tied up all day because I'm having our calls forwarded to it. (good thing for rollover minutes). 5. My boss has just added two more things to my darker pink "TODO" notebook. And just as I was about to roll up in a ball and hide under my desk, I got this e-mail. Dear Kindle Customer, Today, we introduced Kindle 2, the next generation of our wireless reading device.

Where do I begin???

After a long absence from my blog, I am finally sitting down to post. So much has happened in the past month that I honestly don't know where to begin. December 23, 2009 turned my world upside down. My mom suffered a minor heart attack, and was taken by ambulance to Chandler Regional Hospital. When I arrived, she was in good shape, and she was talking. They ordered a CT Scan of her chest. When she got back to the ER from her test, every thing that could have gone wrong, did. She suffered another heart attack, this one was much worse. She was in-tubated and things were not looking very good for her. The next few days were spent waiting for tests to be run, consulting with Dr.s and praying. A lot of praying. We were finally told that she would need to undergo a quadruple bypass. There was a problem with that, because she was in critical condition. Her kidneys were failing, her blood pressure was to high, as was her blood sugar. And, she was to weak. The surgeon said that we would
