Repeat the sounding Joy!

Merry Christmas from our house to yours!!!!

We've been very busy this evening preparing for Santa, Christmas tradiations and above all, Jesus. We'll be headed to church here in about three hours and I can't wait to sing some Christmas carols and hear the story I've grown up with year after year.

As for the Ronnebeck Household... Our stockings are hung on the wall with care..... Hopes that Santa will soon be near (thanks to Santa tracker we've been keeping our eye on him).

And forcing the kids to take pictures by the tree is more of an act of GOD than anything else, Gracie was licking her wounds from the (below) family picture and was hiding behind the gifts just out of reach so I shoved Aquaman in the center and voila, our kids by the tree.

Merry Christmas from the Ronnebeck Family!

Lots of Love,

The Wreath

It all started with Pinterest - yes, that rant about Pinterest still stands, but this was inspired from there. I wanted to recreate a wreath of bulbs, I hate buying wreaths since they expire year after year, this one will hang in my home for a LONG time, possibly till I die... that is how much I love how it turned out! So, being my crafty (and somewhat frugal) self, I set off to find the materials to make it. Finding that bulbs are not quite as cheap as you'd expect, I found them for 80% off. This wreath, at cost would have run me about $125. ACK! I made it for under 35%! So pretty! So pleased! Many have asked me to make one for them - my answer - you buy the bulbs and materials and I'll glue it together!

My Happy Place

I have a lot of happy space in my world - but the happiest of all is Marvista Park in Normandy Park, just a few short miles from my house. It's the one place where I can go, be a kid, and then feel completely refreshed afterwards. Vacation is coming... T minus a few weeks now, and I feel like I've earned the crap out of it this year! But until then, a weekly trip to my happy place with the furry one should do it! I love his little feet trying to take on the leaves! So cute.

Merry Craftmas!!

When I was little Mom had one of these to put out every Christmas. I remember her tossing it out having fixed its hot glue after every warm summer in the shed, she wasn't particularly attached to it but I was. Having collected enough baby food jars (finally) I put it together this weekend! Looks just like I remember it and now it is sitting in my closet awaiting its debut next weekend!

R is for Ronnebeck!
