Merry Christmas......

 I can't believe its Christmas Eve......

 Friday was the last day of school and the 

kids were so cute at our class party....

 Today were going to see a movie with the kids,

then out to dinner .....

 and on to our Christmas Eve service at church 

where Cory and Mimi have parts.

 What are your plans for the Holidays?

Thank you to Pinterest for all the lovely images!

Merry Christmas

Love, Heidi

Warm News.....At 8 below.

 For 12 years are main source of heat has been

a wood stove and this last week we finally.....

drum roll!

 received a furnace......

I'm so excited...no frost in our windows just a warm house!

Such a blessing, the best Christmas present ever!

 So far so good Milo and Jerry have left both trees alone.....

 The sunrise was beautiful this morning streaming through

the windows......

I still have a few things to get ready for Christmas...

How are you guys coming along with

your lists?

Take care, 

Heidi

Vintage crafts.....

 I found these little cutie pies in our last estate sale.

 I thought they were so adorable....

 My friend thought they should have gone

in the trash....

Check out the emory board ski's.

 I love his little ski's.

 Little snowballs...

We had freezing rain the last few days with 

warmer temps.....

and Mimi stayed home from school with the flu today. 

So it was just nice to stay close to the fire and watch 

a few Christmas movies.

Take care,

Heidi

Technical difficulties.......

 I'm sorry I missed out on wishing all of you a 

Happy Thanksgiving!

 Maybe some of you can help a few months back my 

friend came over and needed help accessing her account

well through my help her Gmail account is now the primary

account on my blog.

 So for me, not knowing her password

I was blocked off my blog...... 

I finally changed her password and got logged in.

 How the two of us managed to make such a mess who knows

any suggestions?

I'm so glad I can leave comments again......

These beautiful houses I found at the last estate sale we ran

I love them to pieces.....

take care,

Heidi

The wish list.......

 Of course my wish list is from Anthropologie....

I fell in love with this tea set for my class room and so I ordered it

I'm so excited! Its going to look adorable in our kitchen.

 Can't wait for Christmas.....its hard not to start decorating!

 love these......

 This coat is a work of art!

Please go on sale.....

Not practical shoes for Alaska but adorable all the same.....

Well I have had my morning escape with my first cup of coffee

and now back to my day which

includes a trip to the dentist for Cory and I......yuck!

Take care,

Heidi

Its been awhile........

 I'm sorry its been soooooo long since my last post.

I have been busy with the kids and work.

 I'm still in love with my job....those 10 little stinkers

make me laugh everyday!

Its always something new........

 Jeremy made me this lovely butter dish the other day

just in time for Thanksgiving!

And we received our first snow of the year.....

Our temps right up until Halloween were still in the high 40's,

We have had the most lovely Fall.

Last weekend we went for our last hike of the season

 and it was so nice getting out one last time before Mr. Snow

came to visit.

I hope your all doing well?

take care,

Heidi

Autumn in Alaska ......with a brown bear!

 We drove up to Anchorage this week

and Phil spotted 2 brown bears along the drive.

 What an amazing sight....

one I never get tired of!

This weekend our church had our ladies retreat

at Alyeska, it was a lovely drive and we had so much fun!

George finally got a haircut.....

He always walks around with an extra bounce.

He's such a sweetheart!

I hope you all have had a lovely week.

Take care,

Heidi
