This weeks goals: 1. Start putting all the summer clothes into storage and get the winter clothes/gear out for use. 2. De junk my laundry room  3.

Plan photo outfits 5. Find a way to take care of wet boots/shoes to be placed on our landing.  (hard wood gets VERY slippery when wet) 6. start shopping for gifts

Starting now to ensure a smooth Holiday Season...My goals for this week.

I am a Christmas NUT! I know some of you may say that this is way to early to be planning for Christmas but trust me I have not made you endure the months of thinking and planning up to now. AHAHAHA!! (my family can testify that this is true) My goal is to have a smooth, peaceful, and enjoyable holiday season.  I DO NOT want to be stressed! I DO NOT want to be running around like a chicken with my head cut off searching for last minute gifts etc.  So here are my goals for this week. I figure even if I don't get them all done every little bit will help in my quest of peace on earth (in my house) and good will to men. (especially the small men and women that I like to call my kids)  When you do start planning your holidays? What have you done already?  I'd love to hear! I love comments!! hint hint..... 1.Review and Tweak my budget so we can avoid over spending which is tempting to me with all the music and decor etc. 2. Start gathering gift ideas for the children, hubby, neighbo

Craft Cubby!

So first let's have a confessional.  My crafts have taken over my living room and my family room.  My name is Emily and I have a craft problem.  LOL!! Then Hark!?  What's that I hear? Swooping in from the distance?  "Here I come to save the day! Martha Stewart  is on the way!!!" (She didn't really talk to me but her craft SO talked to me)  I am imagining this little baby in a full length style with a rod for all my ribbons etc etc etc with the cutest fabric available for the curtain.  Thank you Martha!!  It will be mine. Oh Yes.  It will be mine. Check it out here !
