Welcome Christmas into your HEART


Hola Amigas! Here is another Dawn Griffith case...I love the simplicity of this one...The difference between both is that I embossed my bashful blue and used chunky glitter on my snowflakes along with using Brilliant Blue for my sentiment. How is your Christmas card making coming along...Mine's is SUPER BUSY! But I just LOVE IT...Today and EVERY Wednesday we spend the day with my Abuela (grandmother)...I get a HOME COOKED meal (not that I don't cook but their are certain Spanish dishes that need those experienced and seasoned hands). And Solimar and Joaquin get to play with Abuela Banana (that's what Solimar calls her because SINCE FOREVER she always gives her a banana when she sees her-NO LIE) and Joaquin calls her Abu...

Scary Pumpkin Patch






Hola! Just a couple REASONS why Joaquin did NOT enjoy the Hay Ride...Solimar on the other hand had a BLAST!

Pumpkin Patch and Halloween




Better Late than NEVER...Here are some pictures of our trip to the Pumpkin Patch...Solimar and Joaquin had a blast. The only part Joaquin didn't like was the Hay Ride because it was a little scary...I will post those pics in a second...They had hanging spiders and scary characters. For Halloween Solimar was a PINK cave girl. She had me spray paint her hair for about 4 days...Joaquin was Frankenstein.

Good Morning Amigas...How is everyone? Are you getting ready for Thanksgiving Day. I will be hosting Thanksgiving in my house for my family this year...FIRST TIME EVER!

And of course I will be putting up 4 Christmas trees starting Thanksgiving Day. I have never had the same tree twice...but this year I will repeat my purple tree for Solimar and now that we have Joaquin I will have to go and buy ornaments to do a either blue or GREEN (my fav color) tree. I love DECORATING! My hubby NOT SO MUCH! So how do you decorate your Christmas tree(s)?
