Taking it to new hights

It's that time of year again! Christmas cheer is everywhere. I love all the old traditions and I love starting new ones as a family. I'm a "stickler" for making family traditions, it's a way to hold on to the memories and make new ones. Memories are something you can't buy or ever loose. I'm thankful this Christmas. I have a wonderful family and lot's of people to share it with. This is  Della's 2nd year to celebrate. She decorated her own tree and helped with the family tree. It was so fun, Daddy did crazy dances to Christmas music and we all laughed. Della is not even  2 yrs yet, but she is a riot. She talks our heads off and is in everything of course. She loves "being helpful" and cleaning and cooking.  I will upload some pictures of all the crafts and cooking we have been doing the past couple months. We love our crafts! Della is very good at gluing now lol. I volunteered to do a group craft for the kid's at our Church Christmas party this year, and we did a test run today with it, she did really good, I have pics for that also. I try to make a point to do something fun with her on my day's off work. She will only be this young once. We are also learning how to potty in the pot. She is in pull ups, and I think she will get it this time. We tried before, but she was a little young. She knows what she is supposed to do now...it's just been a little hard because she got a stomach bug, well you know what that means lol. Pressing on though, she is still doing good with it.  Ok photo time. I'm not in a writing mood today just wanted to update a little though.

IPhone holder- craft of the week!

 Modge Podge 50/50 water and glue

 I used the paste to glue the label on!

 Trace out your bottle and cut

 Supplies needed..Modge Podge,scissors,bottle,foam brush, fabric

 Drying -----------------and the finished product! YAY I'm using my phone to take this shot, so it's not in there...but it holds my black phone perfectly and the charger chord as you can see.

So of course I got this idea from Pinterest, but I loved it so much I had to try it. I used an empty dish detergent bottle, and the craft called for Modge Podge. I didn't have any so I made some, then made the holder! So much fun. I had fabric on hand and glue to make the Modge Podge, and I actually had the foam brush to apply the paste.So It was a no brainer that I make this today :D hehe I really like it and for see another one in the near future for Aaron! My IPhone is black so this fabric works wonderfully, when I upgrade phones and get white, I will have to make a new holder...not a problem cause it was a ton of fun! So here are the step by step pictures starting with making the Modge Podge Paste!

I'm blessed

I am, I am so blessed. I have a wonderful family, an amazing husband that I just spend a awesome night with for our 2 year anniversary. My daughter is the best thing ever. She is the light in our lives. She teaches me and makes me laugh, she loves me and yes she can try my Patience but that's OK. I have been blessed to stay at home with her and raise her in the glory of the Lord. I have been blessed with a new carrier I can work on anytime of day. And the Lord is blessing Aaron at his work. I am so excited about thanksgiving, and the Holidays! I cannot believe how fast this year has gone by. I am excited about a new year ahead though.
Here are some pictures of Della being Della.
