I made this for my mom many years ago, it was on a sweatshirt. After she passed I cut it off and framed it.<br />

Christmas decorations are put up and the snowmen are out. I'm hoping this brings some snow! We have been ripped off on our snow in the last few years.<br />

We did what we usually always do on New Year's Eve stayed home, ate appetizers, played games and put a puzzle together.<br />
<br />
On New Year's day we spent the day at Grandma and Grandpa's eating KC Strip and boiled shrimp with all the fixings. I took my strawberry pretzel jello salad, I use gluten free pretzels. Yum!<br />
After dinner we played cards and had a good time.<br />
<br />
Happy New Year!<br />

A couple years ago I bought this cross stitch at a thrift store. It was matted in a frame and just needed some priming up. I unfortunately did not get a before picture, I was too eager to get it out of the blue mat. I tea dyed it, painted a smaller frame and now it make me happy!<br />

Wendy from Ravenwood Whimzies held the swap and she was also my partner. Isn't this the cutest patriotic mouse pinkeep? I love it! Thank you so much Wendy!<br />
<br />
I'm making Wendy another pinkeep because in all the craziness of end of school PTA, Girl Scouts, band concerts and working concerts for band trips --I didn't read through the rules. <br />

On Christmas eve we go to my in-laws after Christmas eve service. We eat appetizers, candy and cookies then head downstairs for Christmas presents. Christmas day we have dinner and play cards after the clean up. When my mom was alive we use to have Christmas dinner with her, I miss my mom.<br />

Amy enjoying her Kindle Fire.<br />
<br />
Early this year I wrote on my calendar to mix up cookie dough and freeze. Last year I mixed everything the same day I baked it --that was a nightmare because I did it on Christmas Eve day. <br />
<br />
This year I tried a new sugar cookie recipe and a new frosting recipe. This is the <a href="http://its-fitting.com/2012/11/best-sugar-cookies-ever-according-my-mil/#_a5y_p=4516206" target="_blank">sugar cookie recipe</a>-- I subbed gluten free baking mix in place of the flour and they came out wonderful! For cookie frosting I usually just used powdered sugar and milk, the difference when butter is added makes everything so much better.This is the recipe I used for the <a href="http://www.skiptomylou.org/sugar-cookie-frosting/" target="_blank">frosting</a>- I looked up cream bouquet because I never heard of it. I went on to look up a recipe for that too- I only had vanilla and butter flavoring so I use that. I was very happy with the results.<br />
<br />
I also made a six sister <a href="http://www.sixsistersstuff.com/2013/12/double-decker-chocolate-peanut-butter-fudge.html" target="_blank">pb fudge and chocolate fudge recipe</a>. I think the peanut-butter layer would have turned out better if I wasn't rushing to get to Star wars, it was still good. We waited to see it till our daughter who moved to Wisconsin made it back. I also made peppermint bark but I may skip it next year since I was the only one who eats it. If I decide to try again I want to try this <a href="http://www.bakedbyrachel.com/peppermint-bark/" target="_blank">recipe</a>. Peanut butter balls are my all time favorite--I use Whole Foods peanut butter. I use to make it with the rice crispies filler but love it so much better without it. I also made <a href="http://sallysbakingaddiction.com/2012/10/08/death-by-chocolate-peanut-butter-chip-cookies/" target="_blank">death by chocolate cookies</a>, they weren't as well liked. Peanut butter cookies were made with a recipe I found years ago. 1 cup peanut butter, 1 cup sugar, 1 egg and 1 tsp vanilla. I also made chocolate chip cookies, and Mexican wedding cookies.<br />
<br />
We had a wonderful time eating, talking and just being together. Kaitlyn will be leaving in a few days so we're trying to get everything squeezed in we want to do. I didn't get many pictures without people turning there heads or holding there hands up. I'm hoping to get a few pictures of the girls together this weekend. <br />

On Saturday, October 31st the Turner High School Marching Band traveled to Independence, KS to compete in the Neewollah (Halloween spelled backwards) Marching F<span class="text_exposed_show" style="display: inline;">estival and Parade. Over 24 high school marching bands participated.</span></div>
<div class="text_exposed_show" style="display: inline;">
<div style="margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em;">
The band performed their "Evolution of Swing" halftime show with a ton of energy and enthusiasm. The Golden Bear Band received a "1-Rating," which stands for "Superior". We are extremely proud of all the hard work that the band has put into this season, and all of the great students that make up this band will always be remembered by the trophy that will now sit in our display case. Way to go Golden Bear Band, or as we like to say "G-Double-B!"</div>

We ended up parking not far from where this picture was taken and walked in. I'm glad we did, people parked in parking garages and some had to wait 2-4 hours.<br />

I'm the queen of unfinished projects, this has been sitting around my house for a couple of years. I tea dyed it last week and need to put it in a frame.<br />

Fall is my favorite time of the year. I love the cool air, the beautiful shades of leaves, comfort food and my list could go on and on. My 15 year old is in the marching band now that she is in high school, we enjoyed watching her perform at half time on Friday nights.<br />

I only made a few patriotic/4th of July stuff this summer. I printed out this cute picture and spray painted a frame in this silver gray. I also bought a couple 4's and covered them in scrapbook paper after seeing one on Pinterest.<br />

This is one of them --Paper mache 4 covered in patriotic paper. I can't find my other one, I used a wood 4 and covered it in a different patriotic paper.<br />
