Here comes the sun





Sooooooo glad the sun is out today!  Talk about stir crazy inside this week.  I hope all you friends up in NW AR are good and not too much damage from the storm.  Pat went to Memphis for a Lakers game, so Gabby and I are hanging out this weekend.
(Do you see the little birdie in the middle of the first picture?  I took it out the bathroom window).

Gettin crafty w/ it



I need honest opinions.....are these flower arrangements I did too tall?  The ceiling is tall, but are they too tall for the containers?  I totally re-did these with flowers I found at A to Z in Alma.  For those of you that have not experienced A to Z, it is a compound of about six huge buildings with all of the random crap you could ever find.  I went on my birthday last week and shopped in the gift and furniture stores.  I got all kinds of miscellaneous stuff I didn't need!  Anyway, these urns used to be a boring dark dull grey color.  So I painted them!

Class tonight



Here are some photos from last week.  I woke up early one of the days and went to a 6 a.m. Zumba class.  Yes, 6:00 in the morning.  The only time I've been anywhere this early in my life was when I worked in surgery right out of high school!  When I was coming home the sun was coming up and I got this shot from my deck.  I have ordered a couple of Tracy Anderson's workout videos that got here yesterday.  I got the cardio dance and the post-pregnancy workout (yeah, I know I had Gabby 2 yrs. ago).  I am really trying to get in good shape!  I have never been one to stick to a diet, so maybe if I up my activity I can still eat and drink as I please.  Maybe?
My 4-wk photography class starts tonight.  I am excited!

Branson





We decided to do a little get-a-way this weekend to Branson.  We went to the Landing downtown, which I had not see before.  Fun!  Got to eat sushi and we stayed at the Chateau on the Lake.  They still had Christmas decorations up that were very pretty and unique.  There was a Santa hanging from the ceiling of the hotel that happened to be just outside of our room. Gabby got a kick out of this.  The guys also babysat while my friend Deana and I got massages at the spa.  I thought this was very cool of them!  I feel refreshed and ready to get back on schedule from the holidays.  Happy New Year!
