Merry Chritsmas and all the Best in 2017!

Thinking about all my Blog friends today!

Yesterday was a hectic day at work; having said that, I go to work for about an hour on Wednesday the28th, and we're off until the New Year!

I received this yesterday!
 One of my bosses 5 year old wanted to make us girls something, because "I always make things for them!"
A jar of reindeer poop! Hahahaha

Bryson was 2 months old (already) last week!

 I watched him for a couple hours last night while his parents went shopping!
I sent this picture to his mom with the caption:
"My gramma is hilarious, she makes me LOL!"

 I also sent it to Kalen who said "what did you do?"
I said I didn't do anything! I talk to him; he's just a happy, content little dude!
I also missed lunch and had wolfed down my salad, so I might have had spinach in my teeth!

Cabbage rolls are in the oven. Making cranberries, and potatoes, and 2 dips today! Found a crockpot recipe for stuffing. I'm a hit or miss great stuffing girl! It's awesome, or it's meh!

Got a humongous bird, I'll drive to Vanessas' in the morning!
I know she's only up the alley, but I don't think I'll make it!

Kalen will be here tonight, Vanessa's making supper! I made a pie!

Have a wonderful Christmas with friends and family!

Wishing you a great 2017!

Maybe Christmas he thought doesn t come from a store Maybe Christmas perhaps means a little bit more. Dr. Suess

Hello friends!
I've been thinking about you!
Here's a fun fact!
This was the temperature this morning when I got up!

It's ok, we're used to it here in Northern Alberta, it's the wind that's evil! Any exposed skin for any length of time, will be very cold!!!
The past 2 weeks have been cold, it's supposed to warm up tomorrow!
Craft night has been productive! I just finished these on Monday!

These are wine bottle snowmen! The bottles are full of wine!

 Another project is on the go, but will be finished in January!
Damn Pinterest!
I have made Christmas cards. The girls at work were giving me a hard time. "You finished the cards you're making for other people to give away?!"
The answer, was Yes, Yes I am! I did send out a few.

I got carried away with my sunburst die when I realized it was very accommodating! 
And the last one; I had 1 (one) sheet of that Christmas paper with pink in it. I think we've discussed this before! Who. Does. That!? One piece of paper pfft!
I have been to a few Christmas parties, movies, the kids dance recital, we DID go see Mama Mia last month! 
Doing a casino in January, Garth Brooks concert in February, hopefully a trip to Arizona in March, Vanessa's going to Vegas in April to see the Backstreet Boys, I'll help with the babysitting.
I've watched the baby a few times. He's really a content little dude! Lucky for them!
Nothing in May, Amish Auction Sale in Montana with my mom in June. Vanessa wants to come to introduce my mom to her great grandchild.
Trip with a couple gf's in July.......I'm sure lots will come up!

I'm cooking Christmas at Vanessa's this year. 
We got the turkey yesterday. Kalen will be home, and most of the SIL's family will come!
It will be a day of food, laughter & love, and that's how it should be!
I've gave out treats & baskets all week, and tried for 2 of the last 3 today! I texted one friend to see if they were home, and they texted back saying they were far, far away in San Antonio, Texas! The other one was sick!
So I came home and made butter tarts, 1 batch of poppycock, and a pan of eatmore bars! Now I'm debating whether to make 1 hour cinnamon buns, or Hot Chocolate on a stick!
You do know that some of them do not get made into hot chocolate! My friends have said they just eat it off the stick!

Anyhoo, here's the project I couldn't show you in the last post.

I'm hoping if you click on it, you can read it!
Kalen said yes, "but I have demands."
He wants to pick the hockey team Bryson cheers for, and he wants to ok the babysitters! Hahaha.

I did a big family advent calendar for the kids (&baby) this year, and I'm getting them a membership for the Toy Lending Library we have here in town. It's the coolest thing, and very underutilized! 

Better go, or I won't get anything else done!
Still want to make a batch of Almond Roca too, but that might be tomorrow or Monday!

Hope you're all well!
Talk to ya later!
Merry Christmas and all the best in 2017 if I don't get back on here!!!
