MERRY CHRISTMAS! LOVE FROM THE SMITH FAMILY I LOVE how my Christmas card turned out this year and I just wanted to share it with all of you! It is a tri-fold card, so the digital version doesn't quite show how fun it is, but I love it! Thank you to Cheapshot Photography for taking our photos this year and to Pro Digital for the printing of my cards! J.J. is 14 and is in 9th Grade at Spectrum Academy. He is so excited to be in high school this year and has loved participating in the Occupational Track, where he has been able to experience lots of different career options and go on lots of field trips.

Life 365 | Week 52
Monday, December 20, 2010 Joey came home in the middle of the day with an amazing surprise! He received one of his company's employee awards this year! And what did he receive - AN IPAD! And not just any iPad - the best one that they have out right now. WOW! He was so excited and I'm just so proud of him. He totally deserves it. It is so fun to see him enjoying it!

Project 365 | Week 49
Monday, November 30, 2009 For Family Home Evening tonight we put up our Christmas tree. It's just a small 4 1/2 foot tall artificial tree, but it works nicely in our little trailer. We put it up on a storage bucket and it works great. I love blue and silver together and so once again we used the same decorations we have had for years for our blue/white/silver tree. The kids had so much fun putting the ornaments on too. And for the first time in 5 years, I put out my Precious Moments Nativity. The kids were young and I was afraid they would break them and I haven't really had a place to put it so I haven't put it out. But this year, it worked great under the tree on the storage box and the kids seem to stay away from it - and so it's there. I'm so glad - I have missed it and it really ... [Read More]
