Happy Thanksgiving Everyone + What are You Working On? + An Update on Christmas Decorations

I want to wish everyone a very Happy Thanksgiving!  When I look at my life I have so many things that I am thankful for.  To list all of them would take hours but I will give you my top 3!

1.  My hubby--I love him so much. He is my best friend.  I can't imagine life without him.  We found each other later in life and I am so happy that we found each other.  Thinking of him always makes me smile!

2.  My boys--when you are told you will never have children and then  have two wonderful miracles you thank god everyday for them! Every minute no matter if it is good or bad is wonderful!  My boys are my joy! They are the world to me. How lucky am I?

3.  My mother-she is my rock.  She is so strong (she has gone through 2 rounds of cancer and she is a Survivor!) She teaches me still everyday on how to be a wonderful person.  She is my inspiration.  When I get down I think about my mom and know that I can do and get through anything!  Not only is she my mom but she is my BEST friend. 

What am I working on?
I have been working on a sketch for a challenge from Little Yellow Bicycle.  I want to finish it tonight and have it ready to post tomorrow.  We shall see.  My desk is just covered with everything for the layout--

Yes, those are reader glasses.  I now have to use them when I am scrapbooking so that I can see the small details.  Wow I am getting old!

Holiday Decorations Update!
Well things are progressing.  I am just a bit off schedule.  I have the boys trees up and I have the tree in the front hallway up!  Now I have to set up and decorate the family room tree and then decorate the mantle and set up the nativity set.  I also have to set up all the garland on the banister.  Just too much too do and so little time. 

Here is Michael's little tree in his bedroom:



Here is Jack's little tree in his bedroom:
 This years ornament.  A family of snowmen!  Jack said it is us--how cute is that!
Well everyone,
I also want to thank all of you.  I have only had my blog for 4 months and I must say I am so thankful to all my followers who take the time and write such kind comments.  It always puts a smile on my face to see that there are comments.  Thank you all so much.

I will be back tomorrow with a new layout (hopefully the one I am working on right now!) Thanks for stopping by and once again Happy Thanksgiving!

I hope you had a great Thanksgiving!!I love your grateful list...it is such a blessing to have people in our lives that inspire us and are there for us no matter what!

Love the tree in the boot...that is just too cute! Can't wait to see your layout!

I think I'm going to work on a few cards and maybe a layout..crossing my fingers that I actually get some stuff done, instead of just thinking about it! ;)
