Simple Pleasures

The other day Sam was having a ball walking around the house in Jeremy's shoes. The more I watch Sammy the more I'm convinced that toys are a waste of money!! He's never gotten this much pleasure out of any of his toys... the only thing that comes close is my pots and pans and the tv remote!

More cards

It has been a pretty good week for stamping... Not housekeeping, but I guess I can't have it all!! Here are a few more cards.


I'm still not sure what I think about the purple flower one... any suggestions for how to make it look better?

Finally... Time to Stamp!!!

Seems I haven't had time to pull out my stamps in so long, but today I had to make a bunch of quick and easy "Thank You" cards. Here's what I came up with:

Christmas 2007

This was the year of the Dump Truck!! Sammy got three!

We were all very spoiled and enjoyed our day with Jeremy's family. It even snowed! So nice to have a white Christmas!!!

Happy 2008 Everyone!!!

Snow!!!

The weekend before Christmas we headed out to my parents for the weekend. This was the first time Sammy had experienced real snow. He wasn't too sure about what to do with it all, but he sure loved being pulled in the sled by cousin Tyson!!




We also went to visit Granny in her new home. It was so nice to see her. Sammy kept himself busy playing with her walker.

Spinning

Sorry about the lack of posts and pictures lately... can you believe that our computer crashed and our camera broke in the same week!!!
Anyway, just wanted to let you know that Sammy discovered spinning this week. So cute! He spins until he can't stand up anymore and then he falls on the floor and lays there until he can get up and do it again. This week I've been feeling like I'm "spinning" too, but it seems I don't have the time to lie on the floor and recover. Makes me think of something a pastor of mine used to say... "Remember that God created us as human beings not human doings". Hope you can all find some time to just "be" this week!

A deep breath...

You know how we all have those things that make us feel like we are enjoying some personal time? For me it is holding a warm latte and taking slow sips... it's like taking a deep breath and letting out a big sigh. Yummy... when I have a latte I'm having "Leanne Time" and it is good!!!
So I'm wondering... what equals personal time for you? Is it a good book, a hike on a beautiful fall day, a hobby...? Let me know.
