Family Time and Layouts
Blog Prompt – What does your family time consist of?
Since my hubby and I are suppose to be retired, we do have some time on our hands to football and a few day trips now and again and our occasional “date” we enjoy so much. But we also have a painting business to run, I have an online business and we also manage our rentals. So we are busy sometimes and then we have some down time. Just spending time with my hubby, no matter what we are doing, is special to me.
After the holidays are over my business will slow down and I will be able to catch up on the books and get ready for the dreaded tax season. Yuk!!!!
I want to wish all my friends, family and blog readers a very Merry Christmas and I hope Santa brings you everything you truly want.

I have a couple of layouts to show off today.
The first one I used a kit called Frozen by April Staker. So bright and yummy. You can find it here.

The next layout I used Julie Marie Designs new kit called Frosty Santa and it is so cute and colorful. You can find it here

After many takes, only 1 picture came out that wasn’t fuzzy. Of course, the dog wasn’t looking at the camera, the top of my head was cut off, you could see my bra, my hubby had that puzzled look on his face and just bad all around. And who can see what the picture really looks like in the little bitty tiny screen after you take the picture? So, thats why I take a bunch and hope at least one comes out good.



I love, love, LOVE sweet corn!!!! Those golden, sweet, juicy little kernels that just explode happiness in my mouth every summer. Where I am from in Missouri, we always had a Sweet Corn festival July 4th and you could get the best sweet corn anywhere. Right off the stalk, right in the pot and right to my plate. You don’t need any butter or salt because the taste is great all by itself.
Now on to the veggie I hate the most!!!! Well that would be the dreaded tomato! YUK!!!!!! I mean when God was out in his garden, for some odd reason, he didn’t let the tomato finish growing. All that gooey stuff that comes out it when you cut it open!!!!! Look at the picture to the right and all that nastiness inside that thing! Now as long as its tomato sauce or in a salad, chopped up very small, I will eat them that way and maybe in a Bloody Mary or two……hehehehe But that’s it!!! Not right off the vine and eat it like an apple. It’s upsetting my tummy as I think about it. My dad loved tomatoes and he always said, “That girl did not come from my loins and not like tomatoes.” Sorry dad.
