It's 2010 !!!!

WOW... what a year! I am so happy to get that one over with...lol... it was not the best year of my life but there were sure great moments. I have had to concentrate on the good times so here's some of my grateful list:

1. I have a great husband and my daughter, Kate is my anchor (I know...it should be the other way around!!).
2. The grandkids are all healthy and still fun and like to come and stay with us.
3. We were blessed with grandchild #5 this year - Alexa is now 4 months old - she came for Christmas with her Mummy, Amber, another blessing for us.
4. Son Chris is working and taking care of his kids.
5. Bruce had a tumor removed along with one of his para thyroid glands - no cancer! Then had surgery to fix his shoulder later in the year and is starting to feel better.
6. My mother-in-law is the greatest... I'm so lucky.
7. I had a great time at the Crop For Kids and am booked for next year at the hotel already!
8. I kept costs down at Christmas and only have a little bit on the credit card!
9. I was on the design team at Sisterhood of Scrap - I love it there - things weren't too good around here at that time so I wasn't as active as I meant to be but the sisters are so kind and made me feel better.
10. I've made lots of scrappy friends.

That's it for now.... here's Alexa...

she just loves sitting up but is not quite able to do it on her own..she is so cute and smiley faced!
And... I have to chase Kate down and get a photo of those travel albums I made her for Christmas... I forgot to do that when they were done... it could have something to do with working all day and through the night to finish up I guess!!!
