i'm baaack!

I've missed you guys! I took an accidental break from blogging the past two weeks. Life has just been so crazy. My room is a disaster - I've been coming home late, dropping everything on the ground, and jumping into bed. Ahhh....

So today I thought I'd share some of the things I've been up to.
Starting with...

My shop! This is just a little sneak peek... I've yet to actually add real-life products to it, but I have the graphic design part almost done! It will be opened up in January (hopefully) and I am so, so excited!

Took a trip to a blacksmith's place... he whipped out neat stuff in seconds!

A fun, sparkly Christmas garland I made... it's sooo easy and only costs $7! Tutorial coming soon :)

What have you been up to lately?

about the weather...

Sometimes I feel like Calvin.

I love snow. But since I live in Arizona, I can only imagine the kinds of snowmen I would make.

It's been in the high 70's lately. I can't wait until I can pull out my sweaters and boots!
Happy Sunday!

and so it begins!

Can you believe it's already December?

My favorite month is filled with:

bright lights,

caroling,

cookie baking,

gift giving,

99.9 (the holiday station!)

shopping,

the smell of fresh pine tree,

excitement,

cool weather,

warm fires,

and cozy family time.

Bring it on, Christmas!

I am so thankful for this time I am able to spend with my family. We are currently watching Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade while reading the newspaper and playing with various electronic devices ;)

Happy Thanksgiving, friends!

What are you thankful for?
