i finally had enough ambition to watch a movie!

this a little ongoing joke between my niece, caitlin and i. one day i called her and we were talking about what we were doing that day. well, cait had lots of plans and then she asked me what i was doing. i said, "are you kidding? i don't even have enough ambition to watch a movie!"

well, this weekend I found me some good old fashioned ambition and got quite a bit accomplished. i started and finished my mom's christmas project, i made these adorable mirror ornament type things for this vase full of sticks on the computer desk, i made five handmade ornaments for the annual girls ornament exchange (which are so adorable!), cleaned the house, cleaned up the mess from the above projects, took down the fall deco (which took all of 3 minutes!) and i feel pretty darn good about myself.

today i have to really clean the house, like vaccuum, mop, things of that nature. my dad and mom are coming in for the week tomorrow. i'm so excited. we haven't seen them since the end of september so a visit is long overdue. hopefully we'll get to do some fun christmasy type things while they're here. i know we're tromping to the forest to chop down a tree so that's definitely one thing! i have plans to make a moss wreath at some point this week and get my christmas decorations up too. unfortunately, i feel several trips to hobby lobby are probably in order to liven things up around here for that holiday feeling. so sad...NOT!

enjoy your monday and i hope you feel as productive as i do today!
