Christmas Card Ideas

This weekend I started working on the Christmas card. One of these years I am going to really be on the ball and get creative....but this is not the year. In fact, I am so not "on the ball", it looks like our Christmas card is also going to serve as Henry's birth announcement. Yes, he was born on August 25th and somehow his announcement has not materialized yet. All that to say, next year (cough, cough) when I do get it together, I am going to use these as inspiration....

Sorry I don't have the links, my Pinterest is freezing at the moment...I will try to update later.

Quiet Time- Let The Season Begin

Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign: The virgin will be with child and will give birth to a son, and will call him Immanuel. (Isaiah 7:14)

The Christmas season is here and honestly until I started writing this post I had not stopped to reflect on why we celebrate Christmas (but I have spent hours shopping). I am going to work on my priorities.

Most Popular

I think the most interesting things about Pinterest is seeing what people repin from your pictures. This picture is without a doubt, far and away, by leaps and bounds the most popular picture I have pinned.

It actually came to me from one of my favorite clients who saw it on Cote de Texas.

It Is The Little Things

Comfort is often found in the little things. This picture holds 4 things currently making me happy: a space heater, the unfinished walls that give the office an industrial/rustic feel, putting on slippers during the day, new boots*.

*I have been on a boot hunt for months, I have looked at/ordered more pairs than one person should. On my wish list was a pair of boots I could wear under jeans- not tall in length but tall in heel height while still being comfortable. And do you know where I found my favorites? Ol' Target. They are comfortable and since I was prepared to pay wayyyyyy more I can continue my hunt for more shoes (currently looking for tall gray dress boots). Boots here.

Giveaway Winner & Thank You

The lucky winner (thanks to random.org) is #31.... ADK4378. Congratulations! E-mail me your address @ mstronginteriors@aol.com.

Also thank you so much for all the calls, texts, comments and e-mails about Henry's first day at daycare today. I arrived feeling fine but then as soon as I got through the doors the waterworks started. I may or may not have had to borrow Kleenex from another baby since I forgot to pack Henry's Kleenex box (oops, tomorrow I will be on top of it). I am feeling much better now though. Today is busy, busy so that should help. I hope you all have a wonderful Thursday!
