Christmas is over but I still have my mother's artificial tree in the back of my car...along with various sleds, jumper cables and boots. I would like to say that I'm a typical Minnesotan but think I'm anything but typical. A friend of mine told me that every time he sees the latest project in the back of my car he think "gypsy". <br /><br />I will be going back to work after a long sabbatical from nursing. I shouldn't be, but am amazed at the grace and favor God has with me....not a good time to be job hunting and yet I found one that will fit my life and family perfectly...I'm thankful!!! Anyway it's part time and I will still be able to be creative!! I'm blessed.<br /><br />Here are a few of my latest creations...Adorned7http://www.blogger.com/profile/01021412541472231688noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6967369982069396673.post-85880416386587593622009-12-13T15:54:00.000-08:002009-12-13T16:41:27.014-08:00<img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5414880708496169026" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 198px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhN9U_Uz6qFdgg9g_l3q_EMMUboTFudRLC_F35d-fQn_RsJdA6lx5VKKw1VkpGraungkdIN3B7ofhk53_J92Wboek941pstw3gjoCXLcVsnq-S10O1NIgMtgusL1oOSBhR7eXpwYeK5KFs/s200/CIMG7279_edited.JPG" border="0" /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhu9vq8_hULmViaVB4YTey63gXapLqqnF8SfQOGCXFQJbBsCXm4knSOGFt-j1Ofx8Rlo0X5_lfSnW59kNliJyAGvdLiufNX2VexdMSYxgCzFplQrz-ZCUdjj1rU7T1LRmw6UJgrwMO70r4/s1600-h/CIMG7269_edited.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5414881288356750450" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 200px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhu9vq8_hULmViaVB4YTey63gXapLqqnF8SfQOGCXFQJbBsCXm4knSOGFt-j1Ofx8Rlo0X5_lfSnW59kNliJyAGvdLiufNX2VexdMSYxgCzFplQrz-ZCUdjj1rU7T1LRmw6UJgrwMO70r4/s200/CIMG7269_edited.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div><br /><br /><div>We had a lovely snowstorm! Just in time to give a white Christmas...think it's cold enough that the snow will stick. School was canceled so it was a perfect opportunity for my son and I to decorate the 3 little trees that I drug out of my mother's basement. I was amazed that my son was so "into it" this year. We had fun and while we were decorating watched bits of "Earnest Saves Christmas" on tv...all amongst falling snow and the sweet fragrance of Christmas candles. Good memories were built and old ones recalled as we pulled out decorations from the past. We haven't had access to the decorations for a couple of years now so it was rather fun to pull them out...see pic above! </div><br /><br /><div>I'm just so thankful this year for friends, feeling connected, being loved and genuinely loving in return ...and a sense of belonging. </div><br /><br /><div>Merry Christmas and I hope the New Year brings many blessings and closeness to God...blessed and happy is the man whom God draws near!</div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div></div></div>Adorned7http://www.blogger.com/profile/01021412541472231688noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6967369982069396673.post-29376782747014607652009-10-21T16:25:00.001-07:002009-10-21T16:29:35.169-07:00Suprise Birthday Party<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYrBkMIifFDnwARvFc76v6mlcvHYHQbLKrgicLdbD2v_sVMPcPoCCPAykeW9PM8hK9ryw-btXuVqxqRtBS_Nr1Nm20hJzxROu94RAi4Gihp1npbu4bwli-gnMC7B5W_1kxDYuqTEab1OI/s1600-h/CIMG3349_edited.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYrBkMIifFDnwARvFc76v6mlcvHYHQbLKrgicLdbD2v_sVMPcPoCCPAykeW9PM8hK9ryw-btXuVqxqRtBS_Nr1Nm20hJzxROu94RAi4Gihp1npbu4bwli-gnMC7B5W_1kxDYuqTEab1OI/s200/CIMG3349_edited.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5395198904880405506" border="0" /></a><br />He was completely duped.

Last year at this time we loaded up the back of the car with pumpkins and squash and made the 4 hour trip back home. I stopped by my brothers house to give the kids some pumpkins but they weren't home. So we put the pumpkins on the railing around the porch and ran away!! I felt like a little kid on May Day. This year I was hit with a plague of squash bugs which I battled all summer. They won and so I have a very small crop of pumpkins.<br /><br />This morning the post office called and I went and picked up fifty one-day old chicks that I had ordered. Since I was missing my nieces and nephew I decided that I would name a couple after them.

Whenever I order chicks I always get one free "Mystery Chick". I decided this one reminded me of Mac. Mac - with our last batch of chicks the "Mystery Chick" thought I was his girlfriend. He would drop one wing and drag it on the ground and then do this side-step shuffle and try and get me in the corner.

I love kids(even ones who don't kiss). I miss you all so much!<br /><br />Maddie and Mal I decided that I wouldn't name chicks after you since you are now such big girls. I figured that being named after a baby chick would not be to cool. I decided that I would wait for our new arrival in the spring(no auntie Pam is NOT expecting). We will be getting 2 cows in the spring...way cooler I'm sure. As Jake would say, "Mom that is soooo lame". Sorry girls it is either cows or rabbits. If you have a major problem with that I am considering a couple of pygmy goats. Let me know!! I love you tons and miss you more.

I spent most of it in the garden and then pulled myself away and worked like a mad woman on jewelry (I got some new beads in the mail)! Here is some of the work that I got done.</div>Adorned7http://www.blogger.com/profile/01021412541472231688noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6967369982069396673.post-83894724048464531112008-09-10T20:56:00.000-07:002008-09-28T15:56:41.815-07:00Hot Pickled Garlic Dilled Green BeansYep...that is what I will be doing in the morning. The worst part is over...crawling on my hands and knees picking green beans for two hours. I suddenly wished that I hadn't put so much <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">fertilizer</span> on them this spring(chicken poop). I have never seen so many green beans in my life. I haven't pickled them for years...the hotter the better and I bet I'll have them all eaten by spring...I <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">suppose</span> I can give some to my brother for Christmas.<br /><br />No one else in my household likes hot food except for Bethany. I bet she will be hooked once she tries them.Adorned7http://www.blogger.com/profile/01021412541472231688noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6967369982069396673.post-56310082509132209052008-09-09T11:50:00.001-07:002008-09-09T11:54:40.865-07:00First PostOk, so I finally got a blog done and it took me way longer than I thought...even with blogging for dummies style help. So what do I have to say: it is a beautiful day. The garden is full and I have two shrub rose bushes to plant. Please check out my etsy shop(that is why I haven't planted the rose bushes yet)! I am off to the garden.<br /><br />God bless you!Adorned7http://www.blogger.com/profile/01021412541472231688noreply@blogger.com1
