Baby Poll

Hey guys, in case you didn't see my blog I wanted you to know that I posted a poll for when Jules will arrive. I didn't post prizes for the men, sorry I didn't think any of you would care but I was wrong, so for the men you can name your own prize, under twenty bucks. Happy Guessing!!

Mom's candy train

Make a free scrapbook

Years ago before most of you can remember, Mom made a candy train for Christmas.  After Sarah was born I asked mom for the directions.  We have made it a tradition to make one each Christmas with the girls.  They love this time with the family and excitedly make their way through the day eager to put the train together.  Yes, it is messy and frustrating.  But after a few years of trial and error we actually had little problems this year and the train looks presentable. This smile box contains Mom's directions and some pictures of our night.  So: put on some Christmas music, get really organized, have no expectations of a beautiful train, and have fun.

LOOOVE IT!

Okay, I have already shown that I love music. AND i love men that can sing...and this groups is aweome, and funny! I hope that everyone enjoys it as much as I do. I am off to search the web for their CD!

Chrsitmas Flash Mob

Christmas Food Court Flash Mob, Hallelujah Chorus - Must See! www.youtube.com

I don't know if the link will work- I'll try it once I post this- but I LOVE IT.
Ever since Liz posted on their blog about flash mobs I have been thinking how much it would be to "see" one in real life (sorry, liz, borrowed your dream!). I would have loved this one, I think that Hande's Messiah is one of the most amazing musical works ever. I loved this flash mob too, because there are some seriously old people! I wish I could have heard their response when the idea was first brought up!
