Mexican Blanket

On a cruise a year ago, we found ourselves shopping. I usually have to do some of that. :) There was a beautiful mexican blanket laying there. The work that goes into those is quite something. The handy work of some of the products are amazing. I was once given a beautiful blanket from a gal when she got home from traveling. It matched my decor perfectly.

Caysen

Our newest grandson Caysen! He is so precious. Born just 7 lbs 1 oz, he was 21 inches long. We are sure enjoying him! What a neat Christmas gift he is.

VISITING FLORIDA

Guest post of the week by Deangelo Spencer

I convinced my grandparents to call DIRECTV Florida and upgrade their television package before we visited them for the holidays. They moved to Florida from New York for the winters about ten years ago. They have a great condo near Orlando in Boca Raton. The kids like to visit because they get to go to Disney World and Universal Studios. This year we even went to Sea World. There are plenty of things to do during the day, but the down time at night is rough on the kids when they aren’t worn out from a theme park. They tend to get really bored really fast. When my grandparents didn’t have more than a couple of channels the kids were getting really antsy and to be honest we got really antsy too. There are only so many books that you can read and so many Starbucks runs that you can make. I love my grandparents and I loved to visit them before, but I really like to visit them now that we can all get together and watch television in the evenings and not have to go to bed at eight o ‘clock.

Equipment Lease

With the economy in the shape it has been in, it's been more difficult for those who are wanting to start up a new business. With assistance it has been made easier now. A person can get a loan and even check into an equipment lease. When you have things you are needing to get started, it can make such a difference.

Christmas Tree

I love having a Christmas tree in the house but my husband could do without. At least he could do without a big tree. He would be more in favor of one of those small trees that sit in front of a window. Several years ago we bought a new tree which already had the lights on it. It is so much easier to set up. He puts up with my love for a tree and I am glad he does.

Media Marketing

Boy, times have sure changed. With technology a person can find information on just about anything in minutes. With media marketing growing, Triangle Direct is accessible. Social networking shares information on many products. WOW, how this type of technology is progressing! What a neat and insightful way to gain information.

Muffins

Tonight my husband surprised me and made banana nut muffins. I have a very good and easy recipe. He is a good cook and he enjoys it too. They turned out perfectly. We usually add chocolate chips which really adds to the muffins. We generally make 18 muffins so we have some to put in the freezer. They are a favorite in our house.

Great christmas gifts

With a new grand baby on the way, we decided to do some of our Christmas shopping early. There are great christmas gifts out there. Lots to chose from. It didn't seem to be such a challenge this year. In fact we seemed to over spend because we had so many ideas for each family member. I love this time of year!
