hello!

I shouldn't even be posting, I still have so much to do tonight!  I just finished baking and decorating 4 dozen cookies for a cookie exchange for work I kind of have to go to tomorrow night, plus I have to finish making a gift for a gift exchange early thursday morning - again for work - because I'll have no time tomorrow.  I have to go make an appearance at a surprise going away party at Forza (had to mention it just because I've never been there before) before the cookie exchange, too.


I've been sick for like a week in a half (no joke - I think my immune system was super worn down because it was just one thing after another) and feel like my energy has just been zapped out of my body (I started taking my iron supplements again yesterday, hopefully that will help...).  Anyway, just thought I'd say Hi! I am still enjoying reading your posts, and maybe when I get on christmas break and done with all the events and insane amount of homemade gift making going on this week, I'll actually post all the pictures I took (like of our tree that I put up last week!)


I really wasn't trying to complain about all this stuff either, I just wanted to post! After reading your posts about schoolwork crazy-ness and what Angela has to deal with like every work day, I really have nothing to complain about.


A few things I got done in the crazyness of this past week includes:



  • getting our christmas cards done at Costco (thanks to Angela for sharing hers, what a great deal!), hopefully I'll mail those out tomorrow after work.
  • completing about 95% of our gift shopping done on Saturday while my mom babysat Shea
  • finishing a few homemade projects that turned out really well and being inspired to finish the rest (really trying to save money but not give lame-o or cheap-o gifts.
  • Bought a new pair of jeans (this was my christmas present from Jeremy, because all my pre-pregnancy jeans are either too loose around the waist - which is another christmas miracle - or have holes in them).
Hope you are having a great night!

  1. becca, Angela inspired me to get mine done at Costco too! Joe mailed them for me today!

    Okay, so Joe went through a period where he was sick for a couple days, okay for a few days, and then really sick for three days. I've kind of done the same thing but not to the same extent as him. Sounds like you have the same long-winded bug.

  2. I'm sorry to hear you've been sick too! Thanks for the reminder about iron supplements, I should be taking mine too. I hope life slows down for you soon, and that you start feeling better!

  3. I am sorry you girls have been sick! That is no fun at all, Paul is beginning to sound a little stuffed, I hope he is not bringing sickness to us!

    I am so glad you girls got Christmas cards at Costco! How fun. :)

    Next year I hope to make a lot of our Christmas presents too! I read a lot of blogs daily and have been saving a lot of their awesome crafts and goodies, and can't wait to have the space to spread out and make things!
