Happy Christmas

I hope this Christmas day has found everyone in good health and spirits.    I wanted to share a few pictures from the past few days.  We will have more pictures of course when the boys come home as they are in Michigan.    Some pictures of my favorite people!    I also want to say how much I miss you Mom :(  I hate holidays with out you in any circumstances.


Spent the past week getting my Greschner's Gift Ready! 

Oh he so deserves the lump of coal in that bag

 Even Frasier got in the holiday spirit.  They got to open one gift before Christmas.

Kevin Got 2 of course.

The boys raced off with their video games ....So no photos of them!

Christmas Day with Kevin and Frasier

It was a very quiet and peaceful day.   A great day for reflection on what is important in life and what we need to focus on.  God bless everyone and Happy Christmas!

Seasonal Tid Bits

First I want to apologize for the wonderful quality cell phone pics.  Here are a few interesting tidings that have come my way!  I thought I would share that "J" had to send Kevin a work order to get our Christmas tree down.  It got the job done.  Next work order  "Haircut"

I got a beautiful Christmas card from my sister.  I actually took a picture of it to share.  Behold ignore the wonderful quality of the photo, Im sure that won't be a problem when you see this handsome bunch!  Bridget, Bill, Bailey and Brielle!

 This next picture.....Well....I don't even know what to say after the Cat Woman picture.......Thanksgiving day, apparently my Mom and Step dad had a photo shoot with his side of the family.  I have not seen any of the pictures.  EXCEPT this one that has become viral.  Bless his heart.  I love how he is perfectly ironed except the prop plaid...LOL

We did a little decorating at the office.  Cutesy right?

Im a little concerned about the Amish Friendship Bread that I received today.  It's a little scary.  More to follow on that.  I did get some Christmas shopping done.  I personally keep ebay on top of the world.   

Next week shall be super busy.  Co-workers from Oregon coming in.....Shopping Thursday...Christmas Party Saturday...I'm tired just thinking about it.   So i think Ill go rest up!  Have a great week!

McPherson New Additions

Those of you who know me.  I have been driving the same Mercedes for almost 10 years.  Yes that is correct.  10 years.  It has been a fantastic car.  HOWEVER...Its rear wheel drive...Starting to have a few electrical issues and shifting a harder than it should.   For the past month the transmission has been slipping.  SCARY for a young lady as myself who's hubby is gone alot.  So of course my wonderful prankster husband ran right out and bought me a new car.

Well this of course was very sweet, but ......................................mini coups are dangerous. LOL

Then last week, an amazing opportunity presented itself....Straight blessing from God.  And without further adoooo.  Here is the jeep.  I am so proud.  I dont even want to get out of it.  The problem with that is I dont have anywhere to go. LOL.

Isnt she pretty!  I am one happy and blessed girl.

Our first trip to church in the new ride!  And with a York Peppermint Pattie Cappuccino 

Speaking of new additions.   We had a kitty show up at our back door.   She refused to leave.  She is the sweetest thing.  Purring and wanting to be held all the time.  The boys begged to let her in.  Unfortunately Frasier wants to eat it, and I can not have a cat near Zazu.  Gives me nightmares.   But here she is.  She lives on our porch.  The boys brought out a crate and put in a blanket and food.  She is warm.  Her name is November.

Very Raw

I saw this and had to post....as they have stolen 2 of my family members already.

PILLS---I destroy homes, tear families apart, take your children, and that's just the start. I'm more costly than diamonds, more costly than gold, the sorrow I bring is a sight to behold, and if u need me, remember I'm easily found. I live all around you, in schools and in town. I live with the rich, I live with the poor, I live down the street, and maybe next door. My power is awesome; try me you............. .....'ll see, but if you do, you may never break free. Just try me once and I might let you go, but try me twice, and I'll own your soul. When I possess you, you'll steal and you'll lie. You do what you have to just to get high. The crimes you'll commit, for my narcotic charms will be worth the pleasure you'll feel in your arms. You'll lie to your mother; you'll steal from your dad When you see their tears, you should feel sad. But you'll forget your morals and how you were raised, I'll be your conscience, I'll teach you my ways. I take kids from parents, and parents from kids, I turn people from god, and separate from friends. I'll take everything from you, your looks and your pride, I'll be with you always, right by your side. You'll give up everything your family, your home, your friends, your money, then you'll be alone. I'll take and take, till you have nothing more to give. When I'm finished with you you'll be lucky to live. If you try me be warned this is no game. If given the chance, I'll drive you insane. I'll ravish your body; I'll control your mind. I'll own you completely; your soul will be mine. The nightmares I'll give you while lying in bed, the voices you'll hear from inside your head, the sweats, the shakes, the visions you'll see; I want you to know, these are all gifts from me, But then it's too late, and you'll know in your heart, that you are mine, and we shall not part. You'll regret that you tried me, they always do, but you came to me, not I to you. You knew this would happen. Many times you were told, but you challenged my power, and chose to be bold. You could have said no, and just walked away, If you could live that day over, now what would you say? I'll be your master; you will be my slave, I'll even go with you, when you go to your grave. Now that you have met me , what will you do? Will you try me or not? Its all up to you. I can bring you more misery than words can tell. Come take my hand, let me lead you to hell..
