5 years ago today

WOW .. it sure doesn't seem like 5 years has gone by already since Grandma passed away. I went through pictures today and I sure don't have very many pictures of my grandma and I together. This picture was taken in 1999 at my grad from NAIT Dental Assisting.

Miss you G .. everyday!!!!

I came across this poem which pretty much says it all!

In Our Hearts

(author unknown)

We thought of you with love today.
But that is nothing new.
We thought about you yesterday.
And days before that too.
We think of you in silence.
We often speak your name.
Now all we have is memories.
And your picture in a frame.
Your memory is our keepsake.
With which we'll never part.
God has you in his keeping.
We have you in our heart

Christmas Pictures

Justin was very anxious Christmas Day when he got home that we had not done our Christmas picture yet this year. As soon as he opened his prezzies, we had to get our picture done. We of course had to have some goofy ones and since we couldn't find our Santa hats .. Justin made us where these ones .. "not very Christmas like" I say to which he replies "a hat is a hat" (insert rolling eyes here) LOL

Altered Box

I did up this box quickly yesterday to place a picture of a Christmas gift (yes, I was last minute shopping online yesterday as I was not done my Christmas shopping yet - lol) in before heading over to my dads.

Christmas Cards

In my quest to get outta my Christmas funk and into the Christmas spirit I decided to get scrappy and make some cards today. I'm not too sure it has got me outta my funk but I enjoyed being in my scraproom today doing what I love doing. Nice to have some "me" time locked in my room away from everything else.

I made these two Christmas cards this afternoon with 2 certain men in mind ;)

Here is the sketch Gloria posted along with my card.

I'm trying to get into the Christmas spirit so I thought I'd make a card or 2 today. We will see how that goes.

Biweekly Card Challenge for December 1st

I just love the sketch Gloria posted for the December 1st biweekly card challenge.

The red/green card does say Merry Merry on it however, the pic didn't take well due to the smooch spritz ..

Thanks for the card challenge Gloria =)
