A warm home is a happy home!

So our house has always been really cold. Jacob likes to keep the thermostat at 68, which should be warm enough to not keep a coat on in the house. But we live in an old apartment, we had to sign one of those led paint waivers before we moved in. That's how old it is! I don't think that they have changed the windows since they built them. They are single paned and very draft so we figured it was about 50 degrees. So today we decided to do something about it! We bought some shrink wrap and put it around our windows. I think it was the best $10 we ever spent! Our house is really 68 degrees! Its so nice! It was so nice that we decided to give Jacob a hair cut. Don't worry he didn't keep his bangs, even though I thought he should have! It's been a fun filled evening full of adventure.

Christmas is Here!
























Merry Christmas!

I finally got my tree up! I'm so excited, now it really feels like Christmas. I am so proud of this tree because I took the ornaments from last year and changed them to these using modge podge, spray glitter, mini marbles, and eye shadow! No you didn't miss read. I said eye shadow! Being a makeup artist comes in handy some times. I hope Jacob likes it. He hasn't seen it yet!

Live Nativity


Mom and Dad acquired a life size Nativity! I thought it was really silly at first but then the grand kids came over! They had a little two much fun. Regan (5yrs) was Joesph, Alyssa (8 yrs) was Mary, Jaxxon (4yrs) and Jessica (6yrs) was baby Jesus. The topper on the cake was Alyssa yelling "COME SEE THE BABY JESUS!" over and over agian!
Way to go Mom & Dad! The best toy you ever got! And it was free!

Casandra's Turkey

While all of us were making our turkeys, Casandra was making hers! I think hers turned out cuter than mine! Dang her! She is always trying to show me up! She is taking pre -orders for next year! Joke! But seriously if you want some let me know. I would like to thank her awesome hair model, Savanah (her daughter). It's not easy to look cute with a turkey on your head.
