New Year Traditions

Tuesday, January 3rd, 2012

Happy New Year!!  I can not believe 2012 is already here.  It seems like just yesterday we were worried about the 2000 Y2K bug. Goodness do you remember that?  I think I still have jugs of water stored in my basement.

Thankfully nothing like that is looming over us for 2012.  I always enjoy celebrating the New Year because after Christmas everything is kind of dragging after all the excitement of gift giving so the New Year Celebration is a welcome event.  Do you have any traditions that you follow every year?  In my family we have stuck to the same ole traditions for years.  On New Year’s Eve the kids and I stay up playing games or watching movies and eating junk until way after midnight.  Then the next day we spend the day watching parades, enjoying football, and eating our typical New Year’s Day meal.  We have always had some type of meat with collard greens and black eyed peas.  My grandparents taught me to eat lots of greens and peas on the first day of the year to bring good luck and lots of money for the coming year (greens for dollar bills, and brown peas for pennies.) This has been our menu ever since I can remember!

What are the tried and true traditions that your family honors for New Years Day?  I would love to hear them.

Tea Time Baby Shower

Tea Time Baby Shower

I know lately I have driven everyone crazy by constantly showing them my first grandbaby’s pictures. He is just so darn cute that I can’t help but show him off. Well… guess what? My second grandbaby is due in 9 weeks. Coworkers will be running from me for sure now!

This past Saturday, I went to a baby shower for my second grandson, Brady. We had so much fun! It was held at a tea house, and we had our own personal tea party. We had the most delicious scones and tea I have ever tasted. I never thought hot tea could be so good!

Luckily for Momma, she received tons of clothes for her new little man, and I’m sure he will be adorable in all his cute outfits. I can’t wait to show everyone HIS pictures, too!

Kathy’s Favorite Christmas Movies

Tuesday, December 6th, 2011

I love Christmas for many reasons. I love how my house looks and smells right after I decorate. I love being in the crazy mass of humanity on Black Friday fighting for all the great deals. I love baking Christmas cookies and breakfast on Christmas morning. I love watching my children open their gifts… and I love watching them give gifts to others. I love the real meaning of Christmas… and sharing that with my family. There is so much to love about this season!

One of my most favorite things to do is watch all the great Christmas movies with my family. There are so many and new ones every year. I’ve listed 10 of the top movies of this season below:

Kathy’s in the Thanksgiving Spirit

Tuesday, November 22nd, 2011

This week is filled with Thanksgiving activities and preparations.  I have been busily preparing for the feast we will have on Thursday and putting my house in order for guests.  I suddenly realized, just like many other meaningful holidays, that I was missing the real meaning for the day and was way too busy to enjoy what it should really be about.  The first Thanksgiving dates back to Colonial times and I am sure their day was not centered on decorations or the perfect roasted turkey.  They were just happy to be alive, to have survived the harsh winter, and for the meager meal before them.

With that in mind I began to think about all that I am grateful for and how I have failed to express that gratefulness. I thought this would be a great place to simply leave a ‘thanks’.  Would you join me?  We are all grateful for good health, family, and friends, so let’s go beyond that.  I’ll start first.

I am very thankful for my job – when many do not have one, and for the privilege to live in America. I’m grateful for technology that allows me to “see”  and talk to my grandchild even though he is 8 hours away.

You’re next…….I can’t wait to read your response.

Deer Season for Kathy!

Tuesday, November 15th, 2011

The males in my family long for this time every year. They enjoy the woods and all it has to offer them. As soon as the first leaf  begins to change and cooler temperatures hit our area, the guys begin planning their trips to the deer camp. They are all about roughing it, chili out of a can, no baths for days, and a good campfire to end their day.

This year already, my 17 year old son nabbed his best deer ever – a 9 pointer weighing 240 pounds. (more…)

A Happy One Month Birthday!

Tuesday, November 8th, 2011

Today, November 8th, is my grandson’s one month birthday. I know that is not something people usually celebrate, but every milestone is important to me. He has already grown so much and is over 10 pounds, trying his hardest to grin at us, and is making some of the cutest sounds!

I just have to share an updated picture…

Happy One Month Birthday, Canaan!!

Way Too Much Candy… Not Enough Goblins…

Tuesday, November 1st, 2011

Unfortunately, we live in a house that is hard for little kids to walk to safely. Every Halloween I stock up with candy to only have it all left over for our consumption. Not a good thing!!

Baby Lifesavers!
