A Little Holiday Fun

Ready for a BREAK!!!

Can I get an amen. . . maybe from those going to school. It is finals week and I should be studying for my upcoming final on Thursday, but I am just too tired to. Mike had a final on Monday and his last one tomorrow. I only have the one on Thursday. On top of school, we have both been working like crazy, more so Mike, but it is end of year and that means lots more work at Hycomp for me. Mike has had to work the last couple Saturday's, which meant not much time for us to spend together. Boo:( So I decided to work last saturday while he did to try and catch up at work and get a little extra moula. I have to say that I don't like it. I didn't feel like I had a weekend, it was just right back to work for a new week. I don't how people work everyday of the week?

I don't think much as been going on since last time. We had a wonderful Thanksgiving. My brother Mark and Natalie had it at their house this year so that my mom didn't have to worry since she isn't fully recovered from getting her knees replaced. They know how to cook one mean turkey, mmm, delicious, I want more now please. . . . Then we headed over the mountain to Mantua to spend some time with Mike's family. We always have a good time there. We ended up playing a couple rounds of Catch Phrase, which is always comical with the Losee's.

I can't believe that Christmas is in 10 days. It seems like this year has flown by way too fast. I love the holiday season, but I am missing the snow, darn rain. . . I only wish that this time of year wasn't so much of the presents. I love to just do things for others, spend time with family laughing and talking. I have had kind of a hard time getting into the spirit this year so far. The public makes Christmas too commercial. I have to keep reminding myself about the true mean of Christmas. Christ. Our Savior was born. Maybe reading the real Christmas story will help me out.

We hope everyone has a wonderful and joyful holiday season full of love and happiness.

My newest inspiration. . .

I want to make a version of this very, very bad. I think that this shirt is adorable. I guess we will see how good my sewing skills are??? Stay tuned, maybe if it's good enough I will show everyone my mad skills.!.!




The happenings of the Losee's so far have been minimal. School has begun and so now Mike and I don't have much of a life. Mike is busy with history and Math (I'm not a very good tudor in math, I don't remember that far back). He works hard at school and work, I don't know how he does it? I'm in my Social Work program now and loving it. There is so much to learn, but I couldn't be happier with the path that I have chosen.

I have been feeling very crafty lately and have started a bunch of sewing projects but have yet to finish them. I will get all excited about a new skirt that I want to make and get it 3/4's of the way done and then want to start a new project. Needless to say there are a bunch of half done skirts and dresses at our house. Poor Mike. I have been wanting to start making cute skirts for little girls and selling them, but who knows when I would have time. My latest that I want to try are:




What do you think? Cute or Not? Let me know.
