Great Giveaway!!!!
Go check out this great giveaway!
I really like her stuff I'd love to win!
Go to magpiedesignz.blogspot.com to win.
"Magpie Designz has officially passed the one year mark!!! After 2600 sales on etsy.com, 1000markets.com and NOW my very own site at magpiedesignz.com, I feel proud and amazed at the overwhelming response to my jewelry business endeavor. Who would of thought I could quit my day job and focus completely on creating art? I never did, and here I am, pinching myself every morning as I walk into my studio. This past year has taught me a lot. Mostly that I can achieve what I set out to do but also a belief that hand made items still do have a place in today's market. Thank you to my friends and family who have helped and encouraged me when I wanted to give up. And most of all thanks to my customers that have passed on my name with high regards and continue to come back.
SO with all that said, I am sure you are all waiting for me to say.... Here comes the ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY GIVEAWAY! Up for grabs is the Jacob Necklace:

Date Night!
A few weeks ago Jon and I were getting ready to go out on a Date and Liam asked what we were doing... To make a long sweet story shorter he asked if He and I could go out on a "Special Date"
but with out sissy and Daddy.
Liam had gone on Daddy dates to Lowe's and Ace, and to do other Man stuff. but never a Mama Date!
So a few days later Daddy told Liam to go get Dressed that He was going on a date with Mama!
He was so excited!!!!
He came out of their room with his Hawaiian Shirt, this shirt was Jon's when he was little.
Jon asked him if he wanted to wear something else and he said " Nope this is my special shirt for my Date with Mama".
It was a sweet time just he and I. We went to Mc Donald's and got Ice cream cones and hot apple pies. it was so thrilled to have his "Own." then we went to Wally World to find a fun treat.
we came out with a the movie "Homeward Bound" He was so excited to have a movie with Dogs an Cat in it! Oh to have that sweet simple mind set.
We had a blast and such sweet memories were made in just those few minutes.
The Lord really used it to blessed my heart. it's not that often that I get just one on one time with my babies, but how important and special that time is. we really need to do it more often!
So here's just a few pix from Liam and I's first date!


Have a Blessed weekend!

Friends!
Hello from warm, yea I said warm MD. this week it's been in the high 30's so it seems warm compared to what we've been having!
This week Liam has been talking about his friends and what he Loves to do with them.
So I've posted a pix of him and Ella. He says " I miss Ella I wish that she could live here all the time with me!"
But at the same time were having lots of sibling trouble at our house and little squabbles all the time! So we have been trying to teach him that the Lord gave him Sissy as a friend too, and the verse that says " a FRIEND loves at all times." but he says that sissy isn't a friend, shes sissy!
Have a blessed week!

"Baby it's Cold Outside"
The Weather outside is Frightful (and man I wish it would stop snowing), but the Fire is so delightful, (if Mama can keep it going.).
So thats how our week has been. Freezing cold tempts and Lots and Lots of Snow!
did I say Lots of snow yet? man we've received so much so that I've cleaned of the side walk 3 times in one day just to keep it some what clear.
The snow is about 3 feet deep and it just keeps coming!
So with that the kids and I have stayed in about all week. Except for a Dr. appointment for
baby A. and even then it was not fun to out in it!
We have had a blast just playing and hanging out as a family. Mama wished that Daddy could stay home too, but someone has to work! ;)
Here's just a few pix that I took on the way out this afternoon on my way up to the church to blog.


We have about a 12inch over hang of snow and Ice on the roof!

Here is Liam with his "Fat Cow and Skinny Cow" from Sunday School. Can you guess what Bible story they are learning about?
He just loves his cow's it's going to be a sad day when they get all yucky!
she got it for Christmas, it's the cutes little thing, it makes me want one for Baby A.
Baby A. is doing great. we are at 26 weeks and he weights about 1.5 lbs. and getting stronger each day. My pregnancy has gone by so fast. I'm so ready to have him here to snuggle and love on. Daily Liam and Lanna want to play with BabyA. and I just don't think they quit understand that he'll be tiny when he's born! Owell he'll be here soon and they will get to see their little brother!
Have a blessed week and stay warm!
Until next time I get to blog.

Christmas Eve Day Fun
We had a very blessed Day.
We spent the whole day just enjoying each other and playing around.
The weather was perfect for sledding so we headed out to enjoy it!
Here's how it went!

29 years ago
About 29 years ago three sisters stood like this with their prego tummies all in a row, all due about 4 months apart. and now those three babies stand in a row with all their prego tummies all in a row. all due just 3 months apart! So come this summer there will be 3 new second cousins to enjoy. 1 Girl and 2 boys! so the Dr.s say!
It was so good to be able to see my cousins in IN. and so fun to think back to when our Mom's were pregnant with the three of us.
What a fun season of life the Lord has us in.
I know your thinking "where is the Christmas pix?" they are to come in the next few post so stand by!
