Sharing my random life is what I do best
This is one of those posts that I just don’t know how to start. Each time I think I know what to say the words don’t seem to want to come out. No one ever wants to be just a statistic. Especially one that’s so painful, it hurts to talk about and think about.
Wishing you a very Merry Christmas from my family to yours.
Hi all,
So it’s that time of year again where my facebook feed gets littered with little elf on the shelf pictures. I personally don’t mind. I mean, we have our own lil’ bugger that shows her face around our house during the holidays. Meet Pixi.
Yup, you read that right. It’s a mini Polaroid ornament tree! *Cue the cute sounds* I first came across the mini Polaroid idea on Ambrosia Creative. I fell in puppy eye love with the idea of mini Polaroids! I mean honestly! THEY ARE ADORABLE! Anyways, ever since I bought my Fujifilm’s Instax Mini 8 Instant Camera (I know not a polaroid but close enough for now) I have been obsessed, snapping pictures any chance I get. Ask Chris, he is usually the subject of my mini obsession. Anyways, when I saw this magnet idea, I instantly thought ‘I can turn these into ornaments!’ Then the wheels started turning and next thing I knew I was printing, cutting, gluing and hanging cute little photos of our 2014 memories.
In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.
Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.
Written by Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae
From our family to yours, Happy Halloween everybody!
