Happy early Valentine’s Day

Came home from bowling today expecting to pack and get ready for the trip to DC Joe and I had planned. Although, when I got home, I found a box.  A box with my name on it! Yay for me.  Quickly I opened the box to find a bear. But not just any bear, a VT teddy bear. It’s a very pretty bear. It’s pink and is holding a little bouquet of fabric flower. There was also a box of chocolates.

Needless to say, packing was put on hold for just a little while, until I held and photographed my new bear.

Thank you, Joe. I love you so very much!

Happy New Year!

There’s not much more to say than that. Hopefully this year is better than last.

Merry Christmas! from Neppy

Hello again everyone. Yep that’s me. As you can see my Kimmi dressed me up for Christmas. She brought home the out fit a few weeks ago and I was excited then. But she said I had to wait.

Well, last night I finally got to wear it. I have to say I looked cute. Everyone thought so, too.

Just took a couple minutes out of playing with my new toys Santa brought me to say Merry Christmas!

Christmas Gift for a 4 month old????

Apparently there are no toys out there for 4 month old children, because every store I go to, I can’t find anything for my niece. Since I work with so many toy stores, I decided to ask my favorite one for suggestions. I placed my order and yay toys for my niece for Christmas! :)

Well, they arrived today, just in time for me to wrap them for Christmas. One of the things I got her was a rattle. It’s a fish shaped rattle. This is what he looked like on the site.

Unfortunately, I didn’t pull it out of the box like that. And I have a very very BAD mind. Look:


How can I possibly give that to my 4 month old niece with a straight face? Or explain to my 10 year old niece why I’m laughing so hard?

I was even showing my mom the toys I got. When I got to “Moby”. She goes, “Kimmi, that looks like a….”

Those Germans must really have a sense of humor! This will definitely be a Christmas to remember.

Anyway, MOM’s, beware of fish shaped rattles names “Moby.”

Happy Turkey Day!

A lot has changed for me over the past year, this I realized at dinner tonight. There were a few people missing this year from our table, but only one was missed by everyone, and I was missing another. This is going to sound like it’s out of a movie but i really believe the holidays are about family. So when 2 people that mean so much to me aren’t there, it hurts.

Anyway, i know i said I wanted to wait on the decorations. I really only wanted to wait on the outside decorations. Inside I always start on Turkey Day, and I did the same thing today. Bummed I didn’t get to watch all of the dog show. But luckily the toy group was first so i got to see them at least.
