I love to Dream, live to Create and hope to Inspire!

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas - NOT ~
It's suppose to get up to 81 degrees today - DECEMBER 10TH! Where has the cooler weather gone?!?! We've actually had to run the air conditioner the last couple of days and it looks like 80 degree weather until Thurs. I'm sure my sister in law - Linda and my friend Nicole are THRILLED that they can ride with their convertibles DOWN!

Lots to POST ~ I know I'm a bit behind. I'm happy to report though that I haven't coughed once today! However, I do have a sick boy at home with me - my youngest has what has been going around.

It was great having Vaunna back in class again - she hasn't been in almost a year and we've missed having her there! She did an awesome job and you can't tell that it's been a year since she painted!
