NYC

The kids had a half-a-day of school on Friday so we decided to take them to the city to see the tree!! We had a great time checking out all the store windows and seeing the tree. We went to the american girl doll store but it was very crowded. I will have to take Victoria there another time. We fininshed up our visit at toys-r-us in time square. WE rode on the ferris wheel and visited spiderman. The kids had a great time!!

I have a few mommy gloating things to post. First Paul was picked to be a peer mediator at school. They picked 5 kids out of 35 we are very proud of him. Joey was picked to be on the odessy of the mind team and will be competing against other schools on Feb.21st. He is very excited and so are we.

Have a great day!

Pumpkins...

So I am fighting off a terrible cold. And It could not have come at the worst time, I have 14 people coming Friday night to do a christmas card workshop. I still have to cut paper and organize my give aways.
The kids had five days off from school this week and we were able to get some pumpkin picking in.. We went to a new farm and they had face painting, Paul went for the whole face effect and Victoria was a cat Joe doesn't like to get his face painted.. They all picked really nice pumpkins and are going to paint them on friday night at family fun night at the school.
Have a good one

Some goodies...

Wanted to share some cards with you all. These are from a card workshop I did for some of my sisters friends. The first one is a wedding or anniversary card. The second one is a just because I care card this one is my favorite I used watercolor crayons on it. Love it. And finally the 3rd is a get well card.
I am feeling a little tired today and bummed that greys is not on tonight. Oh well that means I may get to bed before 1 am tonight. Trying to keep up with all the paperwork that comes home from school is crazy. I get the some of the same papers 3 times such a waste. I am also looking foward to my stamping up order that is coming in tomorrow!!
have a great one.
did you create today?

Monday ramblings....

Here are the pictures from the Trace Adkins concert... We all had such a great time.. We were able to move up real close to the stage!! Wow he puts on a really good show... Friday night Anthony and I went to the Yankee game so sad that the stadium is going to be taken down and next year they will be playing in a new stadium.. The atmosphere at the game was awesome. They won and we got to see Joba and Mariano pitch..Love when MO comes out and they play enter sandman the house was rockin!!. Saturday night I got together with my stamping group and we did two projects.. Was nice to get out and be creative. Sunday night Anthony and I watched the Pre Yankee game it was so surrel to see all the old timers and the young timers there. I have my favorites (O'neill,Tino, and Bernie)Love the ovation that Bernie got. And Girardi gave all my favorites there time in the spotlight. He took Andy out in the 6th so he could get an ovation and Jeter was taken out in the 9th!!!! It was just a great night to be a Yankee fan.
So enough rambling tonight Dancing with the stars is on can't wait and Greys anatomy starts on
Thursday!!
have a great Monday!!
