Scrapper!

We made a run to the dump today! And became the ultimate scrappers! I'm not even scared to admit it! As we were pulling up a lady was unloading these beauties! Before she hefted them into the abiss we asked her if we could have them! We did a thorough exam of the woman and decided she was clean! Ha ha and off we went!

Couch and matching recliner seat included! Jealous?

In-Laws....

This is what I married into! And I couldn't be happier!

Dreidel, Dreidel, Dreidel...

Elementary school during Christmas time was magical! I get to relive those glory days with the kids I nanny! It's the best!

The other night we played with a dreidel. Caleb taught us what all the letters meant.

Gimel means you take the pot, nun means you do nothing, shin you have to put one in and hay means you you get half the pot. The game is over when someone has won all of the pot!

And this kid, Caleb, had the craziest dreidel luck. I'm pretty sure his dreidel was loaded so it always landed on gimel. I have never seen anything like it.

The group! We had a blast!

Happy Thursday!

It's Going to be a Great Winter!

And here's why...

Drew cleaned out our garage, and it has made all the difference! Waking up in the morning and not having to ice pick my windows! Or drive around peeking out of the tiny defrosted hole in my windshield! Opening up my car door and not having a clump of snow fall on my seat, is life changing! Thanks Drew!

Chi O Pledge Class Party!

My Sorority pledge class Christmas party was today! And it was fantastic as ever!

Love these girls! Merry Christmas!

My Sweet Grandpa!

He never ceases to amaze me! Even after he is gone. I go to my granny's once a week to buy her groceries and clean her house! Today she found a card from my grandpa. It was too sweet not to share!

My grandpa from the time I was tiny made his own cards! He was a wiz on the computer! And I'm pretty sure the first person ever to have the Internet. Anyway I digress, he made his own cards and this one was made for my granny after she became really sick. We all thought we were going to lose her. This is what the card said.

How sweet is that?! That is true love if I've ever read it! I love the little nicknames. Marcie and Maxie! Too sweet.

Oh and just to snazz it up, my grandpa threw in a hula goose! He couldn't be more adorable!!

And on the back just like a Hallmark card he put his signature! Something awesome like "you know who" or "that old guy" but for my granny... She got Maxwell! (not my grandpa's full name)
