My little turkey!



well actually I guess she's an indian, thanks to art class at school. We got her first ever report card cause 4k doesn't really count especially the terrible year we all had. So anyway her report card was awesome, top score was for coloring(a 4 which is never given) and a couple weeks ago she won the coloring contest at school for the second year in a row. I guess its a pretty big deal and she gets a nice prize.


So its been awhile since I've been on here, I was busy getting avon ready for the annual craft show at the legion. I never plan on selling much just getting my name out and I sold more than last year and gave lots of books away, so far 2 people have called so I guess it worked.

Daryn's still been busy hunting and with no luck. Its gotten colder now and we saw the first snow on sunday, so now he has a good cold from being out in it so much.


Sunday was a nice lazy day at home, we never left the house except for Daryn to hunt a little in the morning. Packers even had the day off but the bears and vikings played and the bears kicked butt!!! So I think the bears and packers are tied for first right now.

Please retire Brett, when I see you come on the field its like oh no not him again, sickening.

I finally made a card yesterday, I took off since Lainey was off and Daryn took off to go hunting. The temp was in the 60's so we even got some christmas lights hung up.

This card was embossed with a folder then rubbed over with white pigment ink, then sprayed with shimmer mist mixed with alcohol. Its hard to see the sparkle but it makes the snowflakes very pretty. I don't make my own christmas cards and probably never will but I do use a few for gifts and things.

Daryn's been doing ALOT of hunting with no luck so he's off thursday and friday again. This past weekend I actually went to sparta with my sister to a craft show and that was lots of fun except for the old guy stalking me. Mom watched all the kids and was to tired to go out with us for supper at Apple Valley, first time we've been there since May. Chris was home for Diane's bday party, we were home by 7:30, I kinda missed their good food.

Sunday was church for me and Lainey, then we stopped to see grandma busy making her crafts for this sat craft show we're doing at the legion. Then we came home and just hung out and tried to fix christmas lights, lots of ours are half burnt out this year. We're throwing alot away and getting rid of the fake tree we never use!!!!

Rockin Mom

I have a rockin mom and I love my mom! Gosh was this the perfect thing to get when I got home from work sunday. Another 4 year old died at work and this one from asthma. I have never heard anyone scream as bad as his grandma did.

So Lainey and Daryn were home all day and knew I had a bad day so she gave me this when I got home even in an envelope. I don't even know where she found a guitar sticker but how neat!!! This is probably my most favorite project from her and will be kept a long time!

Then we went trick or treating and we started at Mel and Jason's, as we're getting out of the car her tooth came out. #2 so she was a bloody fairy for awhile but very excited that now the tooth fairy was also coming.
It was a fun night and even decent weather this year, her pumpkin was almost full and thats just from friends and family. Uncle Dallas even called and wanted us to stop at his apartment for the first time ever.
That night when we went to bed Lainey asked me if I had really cried at work and we talked about it and as she's rubbing me on the arm she said "I promise that will never happen to me and Ruby", I have the sweetest child EVER!!!!!
