Gia's sing a long at school

Gia had a sing a long at school and all the parents and family came. My in-laws came with me. She calls my father in law "Gorgeous POP" because he alwasy calls her gorgeous (better than my dad who is "PUNK POP"...that's what you get for calling her "Punky"). So all the kids are merrily singing Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, jingle all the way.....but Gia Milazzo is singing.........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................wait for it ........................................................................
..........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Life is a Highway, I wanna ride it Allllll niiight looooong!

Miss Lisa says, "Gia we are singing Jingle Bells now, save Disney for later"
Gia says, "But Miss Lisa, I gotta sing it..."

Maybe I should hide the movie for a while.......

new challenges

Here are some cards I made for some Sweetheart challenges at SCS.....






I caught up to the projects I HAD to finish for Chirstmas so I have been hanging out in the VSN chat rooms. Other than that, yesterday Chris pulled the Christmas tree onto himself and Gia...yes it was all over the place. It sucks to have to confine him to the den but if I don't he will single handedly destroy the entire house. He will be 2 in a few months, hopefully he'll start to get better with this destruction phase. Gia is obsessed with hanukkah and keeps asking me to make her Latkes ( she says Lat-Keys) because they had them in school. Have to call up Wendy and Beth for help with that one. As usual, I start typing and someone starts demanding something (Chris wants his book and COLOURS!)...adios!

christmas cards

Well, we have all finally recovered from the cold/bronchitis/sinus infection/croup that has plagued us all since before Thanksgiving. Hooray! Now I'm afraid to go out anywhere and get sick again! But I finally managed to get a decent picture for our Christmas cards (yes, I wimped out of actually stamping them because it was getting so late). Anyway, I would have heard hell from everyone if I didn't send a picture...here it is:



Not my favorite but it was all I had the energy for that day...just dressing them wears me out sometimes! Now I have to get going on my Christmas cookies....

how exciting

So I am so excited that I was picked as a hostess for Virtual Stamp Night on my favorite site Split Coast Stampers! Now I need to really rack my brain for ideas...being a first timer, I really want to do something great. Yup, I am BLANK...no ideas whatsoever! Now I am panicking, why did they pick me anyway???
So I will be locked in the stamp closet every night this week waiting for my brainstorm...

Everyone is still sick here... HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE???? This is going on 3 weeks now...we take turns being the sickest...today Joe wins!

where did she come from?

Today at school Gia's teacher Miss Maria told me Gia saw one of the other classes made some Driedels out of paper. Miss Gia Milazzo asked her...........

wait for it..........................................................................

"Are we going to make some of those arrows that point to Santa?"

So, Miss Maria nearly peed her pants, as did everyone who heard this story so far.

Maybe I need to tell her more about Hannukah? Whaddya think?
