Happy Holidays~A Winter Blog Break

Wishing you a Happy Holiday Season......
I will be taking a blog break until the New Year..... I will visit when I can but will not be posting until 2009.


I have so much to tell but am trying to make this short and
sweet.

We are looking forward to Thanksgiving and then my daughters 20th B-day. Right before Christmas, I will celebrate my B-day too. We have a busy month ahead and for the firs
t time ever.....I will be taking 2 weeks off at Christmas!!!!

Many changes ahead for me....my Website, Etsy, Lollishops and the 2 stores that I am renting space in. I am trying to simplify my home life....so much clutter. I will be spending most of my vacation getting organized so my home is easier to maintain.
I tend to buy for resell and it fills my home to the brim.

My goal for the new year is to decorate simply and save all the collections and goodies for the shops. As soon as I buy....it needs to go to the STORES!!!

TRAILER NEWS~ We had a setback on the trailer. First we were going to pick it up after Halloween...then we decided to have it brought to us and was supposed to be here this week.
I booked a shipper via UShip and he canceled last week!

So, the new plan is my Hubby and Step-dad will be leaving on Friday to pick her up in Idaho.Prayers that all goes well on the drive....

I have been browsing the beautifully decorated, Holiday homes of all of you. Sorry that I will not be sharing any pics before the Holidays. Christmas will be a little downsized this year. I will post pics of our tree and some decor...when I return.
Love to all.....may your Holidays be filled with Family, Friends, Love and Laughter.

See you in 2009.

'bout time you changed your blog! A break til next year! What am I supposed to read til then! Wish we could be there for Thanksgiving! I thought about heading out there but we made plans with family here and can't abandon them now. It is kinda nice being laid off but scary at the same time...it will probably be March before I get back to work. 15+ years of marriage and we have never been late on a bill! Going to have to stretch savings pretty thin! Should be OK. Give everyone love and hugs for us!
Love, your favorite brother,

Hi Sheri,
Hope you have a wonderful holiday season and I'll see you next year. Before we know it it'll be here.

Sorry to hear about the trailer, but it will be here soon.

I hear you on the stuff, stuff, stuff issue... that is a goal for me for the new year to get organized and not hold on to things.

Take care and give Sophee-a a hug from Zeke.

My 3 year old daughter is dancing to the Andy Williams "Happy Holidays" song on your blog right now. Too cute.

Enjoy your winter blog break and enjoy the holidays. It seems like many fellow bloggers are taking breaks (me too) so we'll all just have to catch up after the new year.

Best of luck on your trailer!

Merry Christmas!

Hi Sheri,
Happy Birthday!! Thanks so much for stopping by. You always leave me the nicest compliments. I actually bought that rug at a store called "Dillards". It was on sale for $23 which I didn't think was bad. Isn't it fun?

Don't stress yourself out too much over the holidays and I can't wait to see your new baby!!

Hugs,
LeAnn:)

Hey Sheri,
I'll send you an email soon as well but I know what you mean about getting organized and downsized. I actually had to take a blog break just "to get it all done" for the store and the holiday. It was too much to do it all. Hope you and your family had a great Thanksgiving.
Kisses to Miss Sophee-A from Alfie
