Hey yall. I'm currently in St Francisville celebrating Christmas with Jason's family. Last week the boys saw Santa at a Christmas party. This time, unlike the first, Joey was not scared! I thought I'd share some pictures of the boys with Jolly Ole St Nick.
Anthony absolutely LOVES Santa. He ran to the door to greet Santa when he came in. He climbed up in his lap and did not want to get down. There were other kids there who also wanted to see Santa, so he had to get down for a little while. In this next picture, he is daring anyone to make him get out of Santa's lap again!
I hope yall are all having a wonderful weekend. Oh, and how could I forget--Santa came early to my house and brought me the new Cricut Expression!!! I played with it a little when I got it Thursday night, but really haven't had time to do much with it. Aunt Pat also got one, so I'm gonna bring mine down to her house the day after Christmas. We're gonna have a few friends over and play with our new toys! I always figured it would be too hard to get Aunt Pat into papercrafting, but the QVC infommercial did all the hard work for me! She has since bought paper (my personal weakness) and a Xyron. Her first project is a calendar that I can't wait to see. She's hooked, but I don't think she realizes it yet. Anyway, yall better finish up your Christmas shopping--only a few days left!
Next we went to my grandmother's house. I made 26 placecards for her Christmas party. They matched so well with her gold plate chargers and other decorations.
After nap time, Anthony wanted to go jump on the "jumping thing." I took him out to the trampoline. He looked at it and said, "It too big. I not wanna jump."
Joey was content playing in his room with his legos.
Me and the boys enjoyed drinking his chocolate birthday milkshake. The boys are begging me to take them outside, so I need to go before I lose my patience.
He said he knew who he was gonna pick. I told him first of all he didn't know who was in the drawing and second of all he had to pick a name with his eyes closed.
Of course, he drew Aunt Pat, which is who he wanted to win. I was watching so I know he didn't cheat. Anthony wanted to draw a winner too, so I thought we could have 2 winners just so no one thought it was rigged.
Anthony drew Kerry, one of my SBS-24 girls. I've got your address, Kerry, so I'll be sending you some tags. After I make them. :)
Joey took a picture of me calling Aunt Pat. Anthony never misses a chance to cheese for the camera. 
I really like using the swapped images because I already have a pile of them stamped and ready to color! Aunt Pat said I could just stamp my own stuff and put it in a pile, but that's not as much fun as coloring somebody else's stuff! 
Joey and I were lucky enough to find the warm and cozy wishes Fluffles at Michael's Saturday. Joey likes Fluffles because I usually color him orange like his cat Tails. I am so excited about owning my first Fluffles stamp that I am hosting some BLOG CANDY! Post a comment on this post by Friday night to have a chance to win some gift tags made with this new stamp.
One of my blue-eyed cuties will draw to pick a winner. Tell all your friends and neighbors!
You really can't see it in the picture, but the squares have designs embossed around them with Cuttlebug folders. The H's are from the Cuttlebug Olivia alphabet set. I'm hoping to make several more sets for Christmas. Thanks for looking!
