Our Christmas Letter

Each year I send out a Christmas letter and the one thing that frustrates me more then anything about the letter is that I can not include all the pictures I would like. That and Brent's rule that the letter has to fit on one side of one paper. I have gotten pretty clever with font size and margins to keep this rule. All you that have read this blog know that I am a sucker for pictures. So this year along with mailing out the letters I am going to post the letter with pictures. YAY ! So fun having your own blog to torture people anyway you want. Our Christmas cards were sent out on Monday so here in all it's digital glory is the letter again, this time with pictures. (Beginning of Letter) Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! We hope that this letter finds you happy, healthy and enjoying the holiday season. If you are like us, it has been a little bit of a difficult year dealing with increasing prices and a budget that isn't quite stretching to meet every thing you want it to...

A Walk Through Our Fall Garden

We have had an absolutely beautiful fall. The weather has actually stayed unseasonably warm. While we have been busy canning and harvesting we have taken very little time to enjoy the flowers that are also enjoying the fall season.  So a couple of days ago I grabbed my camera and enjoyed a scroll through my flowers.  I Love this picture I swear it makes me think I can actually smell the rose.  Sadly this is a no name rose. I think we should name it don't you?   These little guys are from a start my friend gave me.  In fact my flower beds are a bloom right now with plants from her garden. These little gals make me think of quiet summer days.  They also make me want to finish reading "Anne of Green Gables," again.  Don't you think that Anne would love these little ones.  She would probably call them "Queen's of Fall," or something else romantic and fancy. These are mums and you should see the plant it is huge.  Again a start from a friend.  I think it is...

Where's The Green? Project One

As I said before one of the biggest problems in our home office is cords. One of the most irritating set of cords was the USB cords. They were a dusty pile of cords that lived behind my computer. I was forever sifting through each and every USB until I found the needed one. With this in mind we came up with the following solution. Step one: Cute "green" box purchased at JoAnn's. It was originally 9.99, however the day I bought the cute "green" box it was on sale 40% off. Cute $5.00 box. Step Two: Drill a 1/2 inch whole in back of cute "green" box. Step Three: Placed inside, the cute "green" box, a USB hub. Which connected 7 USB's to our computer with 1 USB chord. We also used zip ties to keep the cords from becoming a tangled mess inside the box. USB cords, ipod, scanner, video camera, digital camera, palm pilot, cell phone. . . . . Step Four: Closed the lid to the box and enjoyed a clutter free, cord free, desk. While still having ...
