Christmas Eve

On Christmas Eve, I got to go pick up Addie and bring her over to spend some opening gifts. After stopping at TEN different stores the day before, I finally found a Christmas dress for her at 1:30am! I also made her matching bows, and she sure was cute.

Happy Birthday Lil' Brudder!

Brudder, Bubba, BJ, Kid... You won't see any kind of sappy tribute to your life here, so if that's what you're looking for, then you must have me confused with the nice sister. All I have to offer you on this, the dawn of your 21st birthday, are a few poorly scanned childhood photographs to remind us all of how adorable you once were...



...and also to remind us of the poor fashion choices you made as a young boy.



Oh, and a couple of pictures of the grown up you are turning into. Who gave you permission to get taller than me, or stronger? That little girl is amazing, and I know she loves her crazy dad.

Happy Birthday!

Present for Myself

The other day I stumbled across the site Delight.com, which is now one of my new favorites. They feature a new deal every day at noon, but unlike similar sites such as woot.com, Delight continues to carry the products they feature instead of just doing one item at a time. I was browsing the jewelery and found this little beauty:



I bought myself the silver one, and I love it.
The awesome thing is that it shipped the same day I ordered it, and since the company is based out of Denver, I got the package the next day. They even wrapped it in silver and pink tissue paper, and threw in some extra goodies for me in the box, so it was like openeing a present for myself, from me.

Small FryDay Contest

I was trying to get a little more creative with the blog title, but I just had to copy MckMama's... it is her contest, after all.

I am posting this in order to direct some mor traffic over to her wonderful blog... and to enter a contest. If you haven't heard her story, go ahead and stop by-- I know she'd love the company. Just don't bring any apple crisp. Just head on over to mycharmingkids.net or click on the picture below.
