The Faces of Fun!

For Christmas (and my birthday, Hannakah, anniversary, etc.) I got a new Canon Rebel camera . . .FUN! That's all I've got to say. Here are some pictures that I took over Christmas of some of our beloved family members. We've had so much fun entertaining this holiday season, every family Christmas was planned in the lodge. We're now preapring for more celebrations in the lodge this weekend. Happy New Years to everyone!

A Must Read!

If you're going into the end of 2009 and thinking about some changes you'd like to make in 2010 - I might suggest a GREAT book for you. I've been reading "The Success Principles" by Jack Canfield (author of the Chicken Soup for the Soul series). It provides a great start on setting goals, and making strides to improve most every area of your life. Pick it up at the bookstore, get it on Amazon or ask for it for Christmas - it's transformational!

So transformational infact that I'm teaching a class on the book to another organization! Get it soon.

Welcome December!

To kick off the month of December, I'll post some festive pictures of a cookie swap we did at my mom's house. We all bring a cookie recipe, make it and bake it and all swap cookies before we leave. It's the best, freeze the cookies and they are ready to go for the holiday! Thanks Nicki, Joy and Bridget for joining me in the festivities this year. Not to mention Harper and Brianna!
