Denver County Courthouse

Just wanted to share some pics with you of the Denver County Courthouse all lit up. They do a fantastic job decorating it. It is just fun to go downtown and walk around this time of year - a little chilly but definitely worth it!



Also -had some great pics taken of the boys that I had to share with you also.

I hope everyone has a happy and joyous Christmas!

Where does the time go???

Gosh - it has just been a whirlwind of activities ever since Thanksgiving! I love keeping busy but sometimes you just need a moment to catch your breath.

Well, as everyone know it has been very cold here. Yesterday morning we woke up to
-10 degrees and school was delayed for an hour. Today feels like a heat wave - up to 29 degrees!

I have to share Stampin' Up!'s Build-a-Bear set. It is so cute and so fun! I die cut the bears and their clothes - adhere them to magnets and TADA....stuck them on a metal cookie sheet. I'm giving this as a gift to a little girl and I hope she likes it! You can mix and match the outfits - I think it would be a lot of fun...but what do I know - I only have boys!
I hope everyone is enjoying the Christmas season! I'm also attaching a picture of the boys at the greenhouse - it was right before Thanksgiving and all of the poinsettas were in bloom - absolutely gorgeous!!

The next pic is of the family at a Bronco's game.


And last but not least - my upline Cindy and I did a craft fair at a local elementary - it was our first time - we had fun and made a little bit of money.

Happy Halloween!!



Hope everyone is having a fun and safe halloween. Just wanted to show you a few pics of the boys. Grayson decided to stay home and pass out candy this year - however, he did it from a coffin. Parker was a knome. Happy Halloween - stay safe!

Yesterday....Today...

Yesterday....

Today....

And its supposed to keep snowing until tonight. The boys are out of school again today and right now they are out sledding - Yeah! We will probably have close to 2 feet of snow (if not more) before it ends.

Let it Snow....


My poor plant!! We are supposed to get between 1 and 2 feet of snow between today and tomorrow. They cancelled school today - so the boys are home with friends over. I may have to send them outside to build a snowman or go sledding later.

Last night we had our demonstrator shoebox swap which is always a great time - we have such a great group of girls. Below are the cards we made.

Tracy made this card. I really like this stamp set - its very "christmas-y" to me.
Jill made this card using an oval punch and the ornament punch - very creative Jill - love it!
Kim (a.k.a. Granny) made the snowflake card - love the colors on this one.
Dorothy made the Dasher card - Dasher is a great stamp to have for Christmas.
Tara (our leader) made the below card using masking and sponging. I love that effect.
I have one more swap to show you but will wait until tomorrow...you will want to check back as it would be a great idea for Thanksgiving! Have a great day!

Whew!!!

Fall Break is over and the boys are back in school!! Its nice to have them home but also nice to have a quiet house for a few hours. Grayson's birthday was this weekend so we had 7 to 8 boys in our house for a sleepover. You would think that would be total chaos but they were great!! No fighting - they just played and did their own little things. It snowed here over the weekend but today is 45 degrees and sunny - so everything should be melting off.

I'm hosting the October Shoebox Swap for SU demo's here tomorrow nite and just have to show my card (of course!)

Hope you guys have a great day!
