Christmas is coming......

Ahhhh..... I really can't believe that it's almost time for Christmas again.  I mean seriously, it seems like we were just bundling up in winter coats and tearing through presents and listening to Christmas tunes. It's not that I don't like Christmas or Winter.  To say that I do is an understatement.  I absolutely love the cold months and honestly there is not really a season that I don't like.  I am a girl after my mom's heart when it comes to fall and winter.  I get so excited when we get to bundle up and go outside and play in the snow.  I also get pumped up when I get to help make "The Wright Kid's Snickerdoodles" to serve as a Christmas treat for those who help us out so much all throughout the year.  Another one of my favorite things to do during the Christmas season is to wrap gifts.  Every year I savor all of these traditions.  Because it's snowing today, and because I got to help decorate for Christmas at church, I have become very excited.  So, I thought that I would post a poem about Winter\Christmas that I found.



The Winter Heart 

Wish but one wish when winter comes,
Dream but one dream of the past.
The light from a fire is in all our homes
But the flames from the hearth won't last.
For faint and few are the embers,
Snuggle up and keep on your gloves;
What the Winter Heart always remembers
Is the warmth of a heart that loves.

Crafts Page!

Hey check out my new post on my Craft Page!!! :)

Fabulous and Frightening Friday



Hello!  I thought that I would put up a Fascinating and Frightening Friday post because I haven't done one for a while but I decided that I would change it to Fabulous and Frightening Friday because it makes more sense.


Fabulous:

  • Being able to shop from around 11:00 p.m. to 3:00 a.m.
  • Wearing a new sweatshirt that Daddy got for me while we were out.
  • Enjoying Vanilla Pepsi chapstick which I also purchased at "O Dark Thirty"
  • Waking up at 11:30 ish this morning.
  • PJ's at 3:00 p.m.
  • Being able to play around with my blog design again and finally getting it to work.
  • Christmas ahead!
  • Instagram.  I like to keep updated on what everyone else is doing.
  • Thanksgiving leftovers! Enough said.
  • Black Friday!!!!
  • Watching Hoops and YoYo while I'm typing!
  • New Headphones!!
Frightening:

  • Waiting in line at Aeropostale for 2 hours or so. 
  • The security system in the entrance of Aeropostale going off every five minutes because the line was so long that people had to step out of the store to get in line.
  • Being sleepy.
  • The picture that I posted above.



Really I can't think of much else that was Frightening about my day.  That's a good thing.
How was your Thanksgiving? How was your Black Friday?

I can't wait to hear from you!!!

Random Photos (just because)

I must say it is very hard to find time to post so when I can I like to make it short and sweet.  I am hoping to be able to post weekly again soon but life is so busy.  So until I can post weekly, I will post when I can.  For now.... here are some random pictures that I will put captions on.  These are throwbacks for me.



Playing on "da tuwf" at Barnes and Noble.



At Barefoot Landing? (Years ago)


My eleventh birthday!  The year I got my camera AND got my ears pierced.  The picture below is from this day too.
