Headed North...

Well I made it though the week and I'm very excited to not have to work for 5 whole days.

We are headed up north for the Thanksgiving holiday to spend time with Marty's Dad and Step mom. It's been a while since we took the 4hour drive to Frankfort. I always love going there, I also get very excited to come home.

My fil has a "new" pet sort of... A little Fawn has adopted them and I have to say I can't wait to meet the gal. Don't worry my camera is fully charged and ready to click away.

I'm still working on Marty's last B-day gift... I will be up late tonight trying to complete it. I'm thinking about loading up my scrap supplies and taking them with me.

All my Peeps are going croppin for Black Friday and I won't be able to go. That totally sucks. But I will get over it.

I would like to wish everyone a safe and happy Holiday. I will check in when I return...

TTFN,
Carla

The weekend is almost here....

Last night was the kick off of Marty's B-day week... I gave him his big gift last night ( Authentic Michigan Football Jersey from the M-Den ) No Replicas here baby!!! :)

I wanted to give him his Jersey so he could wear it for the Michigan vs Ohio State game this year... It's so funny, it's always been about the Maze and the Blue in my family. Big time Michigan fans... All of us! I'm so blessed that I met a man that bleeds Maze and Blue just like the rest of my family.

Marty will get a few goodies throughout the week and on his actaul b-day I will give him a very special gift made with LOVE. I love B-day week!!

We are going up North for Thanksgiving this year. I'm excited to see Marty's Dad, he is such a great FIL. I do feel bad that I can't be with my family on Thanksgiving though.

My parents take it pretty well, but I know that they both wish they didn't have to share me with my inlaws.

My Dad trys to act like it doesn't matter to him, but I honestly think it bothers him more then my mom.

Not sure what I'm doing this weeked, however scrapping is in the forcast!!

Don't forget....

GO BLUE!

Live in your now....

A very good friend of mine once referenced an American Idol song title to explain a feeling that she had about her daughter.


Still in my mind months later I've kind of made it a theme for me... " This is your Now"


I'm that person that feels like she needs to know what comes next... I'm still that person. But instead of stressing what each day will bring I'm going to live in the now and take what each day brings thankful for it.

Much easier said then done... But I'm trying!

Do you remember when life was this simple... Hannah's biggest worry is getting her brothers to leave her the heck alone... Picture courtesy of Lori Shannon Photography...

I still haven't downloaded pictures from Halloween... I will post soon...
