Craft Gift Exchange

I have been inspired by several crafting blogs to create some different things to decorate our home for the holidays. One blog I love is Craftaholics Anonymous. I have recently participated in a handmade craft gift exchange over at Linda's blog. I made this wreath for my gift exchange partner. I hope she likes it.  

BOO! Did I Scare You?

Happy Halloween! It's been a long time. I needed to step away and focus on our family. I have missed blogging! I hope to catch up on some posts and some of my blog friends.

AC is in the second grade. Time flies. She was a zebra for Halloween.

HAPPY EASTER

Rare photo of me with the boys. I had heels on, so I was as tall as they were. LOL They normally stand over me. I cannot believe how quickly they have grown into young men.

A couple of months ago I started selling Avon for a few reasons. One, because I love the products, and secondly to have a little fun money for the kids. Right after AC's fifth birthday after many tests and dr appts she was diagnosed with CPP. If you would like more information on this condition please email me. The endocrinolgist has told me it is very common in internationally adopted children, but I haven't found anyone else really to talk to. Anyway, after exhausting our options to treat her, we were left with one option, an implant. She has an implant in her arm that has to be removed and replaced every twelve months. We have been told she will have to do this until she is 11. She is 7 now so we have a few years to go. She will have to have it replaced next month. Our insurance isn't the best in the world and we have to pay a pretty hefty copay before the home health pharmacy will even mail the implant to the dr. Ugh. So this is my small way of trying to help our family.

Anyway......

   

  Have you looked at Avon lately? If you haven't you need to. I have a website that you can shop from. You can click here to visit my site and look around. Avon offers clothing, jewelry, shoes, products for your home as well as makeup and skin care. If you see something you would like to try, but would like to try a sample first, please email me and I will be happy to send you a sample if it is available for that product. You don't have to live in the same state as I do. I will be happy to mail it to you. ;)  

Spring Break 2011 Warning lots of pictures

During Spring break Tom and Clay traveled to North AL to Insanity Skate Park. By the look on Clay's face, he had a GREAT time. Clay knows no fear.

Tom told me this was a 12' drop.



AC and I went to Oak Mountain with friends. We visited the petting farm. There were several baby goats. We also had a picnic and rode the paddle boats.
