Dotted Line Designs

I just added a link to my sidebar for a little company my girlfriend started. They are the cutest Christmas card designs. She gives you a ton of different options and you can either print them at home or she will print them for you.

I promise it is worth a look so check it out.

Merry Christmas

Wishing you

Peace, Love, JOY

Love,

My Poor Neglected Blog

December 4th is really the last day I posted? Today is the what...? I'd like to pretend that I have been TOO busy to post, because I've been

• spending time with my family
• baking a ridiculous number of items for friends and neighbors
• handmaking each and every gift for my family
• actually getting ready for Christmas

Well, I guess I've been doing the last item on my list. I HAVE made my Christmas cards. As I type this they are perfectly perched in a bag crying to be delivered. I am headed to the post this very morning, to mail not only the cards, but presents to family members, and this ridiculously LARGE box to my friend Kathryn in India (I can take no credit. Another girlfriend organized it and my contribution is mailing the package. Unless it costs me more than what I spent on my kids for Christmas, and that isn't much.)

I'm sad to think that when I look back on these past two weeks I'l have no written documentation of:

• decorating the Christmas tree
• decorating the front yard (take that my freaky neighbors)
• a ridiculous number of trips to Wolf Camera
• attending Lulu's dance class on Parents Day
• attending Lulu's pre-school party. They performed a play about the birth of Jesus. She was a beautiful angel.
• sewing
• driving around to see the fancy Christmas lights.

Surely I have time to post one little thing? Can we somehow add another hour to the day?

Deal of the Century

HOLY COW- Did y'all see this? Seriously this is so ridiculously cheap there is just no way not to take advantage. I could print a good portion of my iPhoto library (over 2000 photos) for about $100.00. Normally it would cost me $520 to print the same amount of photos.

Sure it is a smaller size, but c'mon they would still look great in a photo album or whatever.

I have actually given up on making my own Christmas cards in favor of cards from my lovely friend Heidi's business, but this year.. I'm going to use all my old supplies and not buy anything (which I can EASILY do) other than the photos and make my own.
