Christmas is love in action. Every time we love, every time we give, it's Christmas.

3 Women and one Baby set out to enjoy life's riches and trials 


We are currently sharing one roof, one baby and loads fun.  There are husbands, granddads, and uncles... but they'll have to write their own blog!

Together we are sharing Recipes, events, decor, crafts that up-cycle and recycle and lot's of fun and silly idea's.




Christmas at Gail's
Christmas Decor Ala Gail
Don't miss the snow flakes that grew daily through out the house.
Here is the kitchen of Gail's house.  This is just the beginning of her decorating. She starts with hand cut paper snowflakes.


Just for fun here's a site that gives directions for Star Wars snow flakes:

The trick to hanging paper snowflakes is to give the hand cut beauties a quick spray of glitter hair spray and hang them by strands of tinsel.


Not a corner was spared.

The tree in the window was the best.

Christmas Outing

 Of all the trips we planned to take for the holidays the free, inside (as in warm) trip to Bass Pro Shops was the most fun.


Arthur had his picture taken for free.  Of course Ashley bought more for the rest of the family. The Santa was beautiful, kind and patient.  Both Ashley and I were convinced that he was the real thing!


A Very small line helped keep everyone's mood jolly.
Wonderful excursion to Bass Pro Shop's Santa Wonderland.
Best Santa ever!


Arthur was more interested in the slot Cars than Santa.
His name for Santa is HO!
Slot car racing was a BIG Hit!

Testing out Tents for Ice Fishing

Arthur decided to test the tents.
              The test was for speed.
How fast can a toddler make it through 15 little  tents?
Answer: Faster than a Grand Mother can catch him.

Up above a Moose keeps a close watch on us.
