holiday cheer

So tonight was my first time ever making my fav holiday treat, Poppy cock. Its popcorn with nuts like almonds and what not over a caramel topping. So good, and it looks like it is going to true out very nice! Tomorrow we are off to the acreage to get some of the boyfriends family members to the airport and pick up the car we are bowering to go to our destination in. So on the 24th we will be leaving in the morning to drive the almost 2 hours to go to our destination and than having Christmas with the boyfriends family. It should be lots of fun, my family sent a package that I hope will arrive by the latest on sunday morning, because other wise we will not get it I'm keeping my fingers and toes crossed.

My family got my package thankfully today! I hope they all like what they have gotten this year. I will be sending of a little something for my Aunt when I get her address, hey sis that means you need to email it to me!!!! However it will go out after the holiday has come. I feel like I have been baking all day, wait I have been. My cookies turned out pretty good, however I was making these Christmas Tarts that are totally great tasting and my mother did not write the receipt down right so they come out of the oven and I call my boyfriend to come and test them out (as he has never had them before) and he says they kind of seems like they need more sugar. To my response was there is not sugar in them... so I call my mom and I want to slap her at this point cause I told her how she wrote it down and she is in total denial. However proof of her hand writing is in the book that she made, moral of the story always check with someone who is sane in your family, sis get ready for more phone calls :P

Any who I'm going to head down stairs and finish up my treats, To all Have a Very Merry Christmas and don't forget in all the crazy times of the holiday season to stop and take in how wonderful it is to be around the ones you love the most. I will miss my family this year I love all you guys so much don't have to much fun with out me! xoxox

This is the front of the Tea pot and cup
This is the Tea pot and the cut that we made. This is the Backs!

I thought I would share some shots, some are a little out of focus but thats because we had to use the night time capture to get the tree to show up right however I hope you all still enjoy the pictures.

The Moose I painted in the tree, I think this picture turned out nice the lest blurry of them all.

Teka looking a little pissed off, but she is still totally cute and in a Santa Hat witch is why I think she is Mad.

My snowman and a Moose that I painted, again Blurry but looks really nice in person.



Home made craft ornaments hand painted this one by Sean! Very nice blurry but nice

Fun, I hope others do this as well.

Again its been forever since I last up dated but I have been busy and not in the mood to write anything. Not much has happened I turned 25 the other day woot I feel old. I got to paint ceramincs, and than yesterday went to the tower in my city and got to have a bit of a anerisum as I am totally scard of high places. But it was cool and I think I might do it again.

Things at work are going well, I still love my job, however I feel over worked right now and a little pissed off about some of the office politics that have been going on. A year ago my cat had this horable rash type thing on her chin, well that is back and she is not happy with the teatree treatments that made it go away last time and am hoping it dose the same this time.

Christmas is coming up and I am not going to be going back to my home town this year, Sigh. oh well thats life and its alright by me but I kinda wish the reason I wasn't going back was a little better than the flight cost to much money. I wish it was I was going to Hawii for a week! Any way thats really all I have to write about at this point in time I will try and be better at writing more often, and I know I always say that.
