I have loved every moment of this special season. My daughter Morgan has loved the lights, the trees, and all the other decorations. It has been fun to show her all the Christmas movies and go home to turn on the lights every night. It has been wonderful to see the look on her face while she experiences all these new things.
I pray that all of you are still having a wonderful Christmas Season filled with joy and laughter. The kind of joy and laughter that a two year old has seeing Frosty the Snowman for the fist time.

Ok, by the end of January, I have a feeling that most of us will be ready for something different to do. I am not a big fan of winter. It is dreary and January really is my least favorite month! So, I am planning a Tastefully Simple Party at Kira's Cottage Christian Store on Thursday, January 29 at 6:30pm. Everyone is invited to come, eat, and simply have a good time! If you haven't heard of Tastefully Simple,

Recipe-Smoky Links Appetizers
Ok, this recipe I think everyone has probably either heard of or had. So, I am going to include another recipe to go along with this one. Neither one is low fat at all, but oh well! I will start the healthier recipes after the new year!
1-2 packages of Little Smokies
1-2 bottles of your favorite bbq sauce
1 small jar of grape jelly
All you do is throw it all together in a crock pot and heat. They are soooooo delicious and I always eat too many!
Another Little Smokies recipe I found was a Mac and Cheese bake. Now, I am not too in to baked Mac and Cheese, but I thought that the idea of the little smokies in the Mac and Hceese Sounded good. So, all you do is fry up one package of little smokies and drain well. Make a box of Velveeta mac & cheese. Then, at the end, put in the little smokies! Yummy and high in fat!!!
Here is a link to another website that has some other fun ideas for little smokies! They all sound really interesting! http://www.bigoven.com/private/little+smokies-recipe

This is a great offer for those last minute gifts! Think of what this coupon could be used for! WOW!I am now going to be shameless and post a few pics of my family. The first picture is of Morgan. We were desperately trying to take her Christmas pics, and it wasn't going well, but I though this one was funny.
The second is of our dog Navy. She is really sweet, but a handful at times!

Aw, love the pics of your fam!
How much off is the coupon for? It just says "off one item" - let us know! I need options in case I don't get everything knit in time!
Happy Holidays!
The coupon is 50% off. It is showing up ok on my screen. Let me see if I can make it different so everyone can see it. A coupon isn't any good if people don't know what it is!!! :)
