Crafting Projects!

A few months a go I invested some money in a cricut machine! Here are a few project pictures I thought I would share with you!
Over the Christmas Holiday, I personalize and sold 75-100 of these tumblers, several different colors. I must say, Mr. Cricut makes life easy and is so much fun!
 I done these mugs and split monogrammed frame for a wedding shower this                                                                    weekend. 
The frame on the left is a 3D monogrammed frame. And the frame on the right is a floating monogrammed frame. Do you notice the shadow behind the monogram?
During Christmas break, LaDessa designed some wall art (using vinyl) for her room. I thought she done very well with her design!
I have also done some card projects, book projects and more with my easy to use cricut machine! I have a couple more projects in the works...I will try to post them when they are complete!
Let me know what you think!

Christmas 2013 in review!

Another year has come and gone! I look back on 2013, thanking God for the many miracles he performed in our family, from the beginning of 2013 til the end! I never want to take him for granted, he is so worthy of our praise!
   Our 2013 Christmas went ohh soo good! Jay was able to be home enjoying several days off from work, as well as most of the new year week! Its always a joy to have daddy around to hang out with..mommy gets old, I guess. ha! (Although, when story time comes, mommy is the one to do the story. At least I'm good for something!)
   Like everyone else, our Christmas is always busy! Our church breakfast was on the Sunday Morning before, and our Sunday school program was that evening. Then comes all my annual baking and making!
Many different candies(to many to list), candied caramel apples, candied caramel pretzels, chocolate dipped pretzels, date balls...
      
Rice chex mix, dessert (birthday cake) cheese ball and the list goes on and on, along with family get together makings!
Christmas Eve night is the extended family gathering! Around 35 of them! Lots of fun!! It feels like a reunion!
 After a long wait, Christmas Finally arrives...
The morning of, the kids awoke bright and early to find the three surprise gifts! After our Christmas morning prayer, ham and cheese croissants (along with some hot cocoa), we dig into our stockings..then the regular Christmas Gifts (one at a time)! Opening gifts always goes so quickly! It make me sad to see all my hard work (wrapping) be wadded up and put in the trash (lol)! 
When the mess is clear, we wrap up the rest of the day with my parents and the rest of the family, eating, reminiscing, opening stockings stuffers, gifts, singing carols, gingerbread making, and etc. 
Christmas would have been complete if we were able to spend part of it with Jay's side of the family. His parents and one sister live in WA., and the other two sisters and families live in IL. and Mass. There was no way getting to be with them all this year with a two month old baby! Christmas 2014? Hopefully! 
I'll leave you with a bonus picture!

"Tis the season to be jolly"!!

Wow! Its that time of year already!....shopping, lots of wrapping, caroling, drinking hot cocoa by the tree, reading the story about the birth of Jesus...sound like "Christmas" to me! We, the Wright family, love Christmas!
  I think this is the first year I had ever put my tree up before Thanksgiving. Normally its the day after. I guess you could say, the spirit of Christmas hit us a little early this year!
This is our traditional family tree! I looked all over trying to find a slim tree for a change, but never could get the nerve to change. So I finally had Jay go ahead and pull out our traditional tree (year #8)! Who knows, I may get the nerve to change next year!
  Before ending this short post, I just had to add a picture of these cute reusable cups that I have been personalizing and selling!
The cup on the left comes with chalk! You can write and re-write your own name or phrase! My kids have had a blast drawing pictures, writing and what have ya on them. The cup on the right can be personalized with a name/initials or phrase of your choice. These make such neat stocking stuffers! $6 each! If shipping is needed, shipping will be added.
  While the tree is lit and its cold outside, I think I'll enjoy having a cup of hot cocoa, snuggle close and read another story to my babies!
   I hope you all are staying warm these days!!

Pictures!

Did I not promise more pictures? This past Saturday we took the kids for some studio pictures! I was very pleased with them! These are scanned...so the actual picture of course is better, but I had to post them anyway!
JaHanna done very well..but only for a few minutes!
See what I mean? She wanted some beauty sleep!
Almost a Big Number 7!! 
Big Number 3!!
I love this shot!! We tried and tried to get her to look at the camera, but she let us know very soon, she was gonna do what she wanted to!
I am very proud of myself this time...I fulfilled my promise in a very timely manner!! Hopefully this will make up for the two weeks of not posting her birth announcement!! ha!

JaHanna Faith Wright!!

Wow! It has already been two weeks!!! As most of you all know, JaHanna made her appearance on October 14th!! That was two days after big brother Benjamin turned 3 years old! Here are a few highlight pictures! More will come later!
JaHanna Faith Wright...6 pounds 12 ounces and 19 inches long!
I could not believe she was that small...LaDessa was 7lb./11oz. and Benjamin was 8lb./12oz. I just knew JaHanna would be 9lb./13oz. But I was surprised!! 
   Our Pride and Joy! "Perfect" How blessed we are!
One proud Daddy of three! Since his second little princess has arrived, he is starting to think of ways to keep the boys away in the coming years! Ha!
LaDessa is still in awe over her! JaHanna is truly LaDessa's "BabyALive"! She is constantly wanting to fix her clothes/head band/picking fuzz off her clothes...she reminds me of a momma cat with her kittens....all the time cleaning! ha!
A very protective brother and Amazingly very gentle! Every time he holds her, he wants his picture taken. And I have to say, I have tons of pictures of him holding and kissing baby sissy!...I would say there is not an hour goes by in the day that he has not given her at least 1 kiss. Now that she has gotten use to it, it doesn't faze  her sleeping!
Going Home! She is so tiny in her seat, you have to look hard to find her! If only they would stay little...but they don't! Every day is a new day!
Sorry for the blur...not sure what happened! 
This was our first trip to church! It is hard to believe we now have three!! Needless to say, mommy is still adjusting! LOL! But I am loving the adjustment!!
We had her to the doctor this week for her two week check-up! She now weighs 6lb. 14oz.! Not very many changes from birth...just eating a tad bit more, looks changing everyday and starting to create her own little personality!
We are truly blessed to have such beautiful/healthy children! I thank the Lord daily!
