December 2006 - Page 2 of 2 - Trinkets of Thought

It’s Saturday morning…Michael’s at work. Usually I’m still sleeping at this time as Saturday is a nice sleep-in day, but I’ve got a “bee in my bonnet,” as Michael claimed, so I’m “Wide-eyed and bushy tailed.” I just finished “recovering” a stool which had a bad top. It was made out of wicker type material, and although I liked the actual stool, something needed to be done about the top.

So, a thrift store, some belts, and a few dollars later, voilà. I’m excited, needless to say. The first pic shows the type of material I was covering. (I forgot the before shot.)

If you don’t like it, no worries. I do, and I guess, since Michael and I are the only ones living with it, that’s all that matters. I don’t like YOUR stool at YOUR house, anyway. LOL!

Happy Weekend.

Thanksgiving pics… my CUTE nephew!

One’s not good enough mommy!……………………..Mission Accomplished!

We had a wedding reception type party at our house last night. I was holding baby Parker. Can you tell me where his mommy was? Give you one guess.

Not much news other than that…At the party, we had a huge spread. I always worry we won’t have enough food, but then end up with AMPLE! I think I get that from my mom. At our wedding, she made all the food for 500. She asked a caterer doing our cake if she had planned enough food. The caterer told her that it sounded like enough unless she was feeding farmers, then she needed more than that. Funny, Michael’s father is a farmer and many of the people in their communtiy who came were also farmers. We rolled over 2400 meatballs alone…needless to say we became meatball-rolling pros before it was over, as well as bulk food producing in general. We had leftovers for FOREVER. We’re still eating them….okay, that’s an exaggeration…

Back on track…last night…Krista made two DELICIOUS hot Dips and Cloud made the PERFECT wedding celebration cake. It was a heart shape, and I was so thankful she enjoys making them. I made other items, but nothing as delicious as their stuff! Sorry the picture is cut already. We had impatient mouths to feed.

Tonight, I’m going on a much needed date with my husband. Meeting in a school building, he has to set up the chuch every Friday night for a couple-hour chunk of the evening. ( Oh, the blessings people take for granted)! Afterwards, though, we’re going out! He stays so busy working on the church plant, so “alone” time with him is always greatly anticipated! I’m excited! WHOOOHHHOO. I hope your weekend is terrific!
