It's Christmas Time!

It's Christmas this week!! To kick the week off we made a GINGER BREAD HOUSE! It was NOT pretty but we sure had a lot of fun making it! Sage could hardly contain herself and actually did a great job helping me. She is still talking about it and can't stop looking at it! We finished out the day by drinking hot chocolate and watching The Polar Express. What a cute movie! Sage loved it and sat through the whole thing. She is getting so big! I asked her what SANTA is going to bring her for Christmas and she said a blue present?!! Either I am getting mixed up in translation or I better talk to SANTA about a "blue" present!

What Makes a Woman Beautiful...

Alma Holmes Irvin Walsh

May 4, 1918 - December 7, 2009 Words are hard to come by when describing the feelings of losing a loved one. My Grandma was the kind of lady that loved everyone. Always there to give you a hug and a kiss, lift your spirits, and brighten any sad day. I was lucky enough to spend a lot of time with my Grandma growing up. Stopping by after school, picking apricots from the tree, playing with marbles, or having a snack that usually consisted of chicken nuggets and orange pop. I knew that my Grandma loved me, I knew that she wanted me around, and I knew that she wanted me to be happy. That to me is what makes a woman beautiful. I miss my Grandma, and I will always remember what she taught me about love and family.

I love you Grandma.
