Opossum

For the past several months we have had an unwanted visitor in our back yard. He has been living under a shed and he comes out at night and wanders around, poops in my garden boxes and just over all makes us nervous having him there. We saw him out in the yard one night and blocked the entrance to the space under the shed... well he made a new one. So I called animal control and I was put on a waiting list for a trap. They called last week so Tyler and I went down and picked it up. It took 3 1/2 days to trap him but here he is. Now we have to go clean up all his poop...... a ton of it... more then you can imagine, and hope that we don't have any new pests take his place.

Day 4

Favorite pieces of Holiday decor. I love Nativities and these are just a few that I have... along with a painting that I did from a greeting card a few years ago.

Day 3

Today we were supposed to take a picture of something that represents the idea of "joy" to me. I thought about all my kids. So here are pictures of all of them around the same age.

Day 2

Today I was to photograph something warm.... hot chocolate.... of coarse. Then we took off to Disneyland.

December Scrapbook

I took an online class by Jessica Sprague a few weeks ago. It was called "Holidays in Hand". It was supposed to help me do a scrapbook/journal about the Christmas season and what it means to me. I didn't do much of the journal stuff but it did get me motivated to record our activities for this month. I had a few days all ready to go before the 1st but now I am already running behind by one day. My problem is that I am trying to do too much with a digital book and a paper book too. I might need to hold off on the paper form and just do the digital because is goes a bit faster. Okay so here is what I have done so far. Today I was supposed to take a picture of a "welcome to December" shot of the family. That didn't happen. I couldn't get everyone all together so I do this with mom. Get a close up of the journal entry and you will see why.
