Shutterfly Love

Every year I agonize over Christmas cards.  I design, re-design and then change them over and over again.  Most years our cards have been just Ashley's photo but I would have the hardest time choosing which photo I wanted to use.  The year we had a photo of the 3 of us was pretty easy! 

Most years we have gotten our holiday cards from Shutterfly.   Most photo sites are great, but Shutterfly is close to home with a HUGE selection of holiday cards. There are cards that are more modern looking, religious or traditional! I honestly could spend hours pouring over all the choices and don't even get me started on the cute Thank You cards.

Of course, this year is going to be a very different type of holiday card for us.  There will be no photo of the 3 of us.  There will be no "Love The Freitas Family"  It is probably going to be a very tough step for me and will give me some major anxiety.

I spent some time today picking out a few of my favorites....

Perfect Present would be perfect for us because LG is truly a gift.












 I love how colorful this Kaleidoscope one is.












 Peppermint Ice is also a fun one!












Man!  It's only October and I am already having trouble deciding!!!!

My Humble Abode

Image
I started moving in December 20th.  Our new home is 1000 sq. ft.  It has 2 bedrooms and 2 baths.  It has a fireplace and some hardwood flooring.  It is bright and cheery! One of the things that drove me nuts in my home with my husband was that I couldn't paint.  The house was his grandparents and he didn't want to "rock the boat."  First thing I did???  PAINTED!!!  It was so liberating.  I felt like I was taking charge of ME and my space. My kitchen is a cheerful yellow.  It is called Melted Butter and it makes me happy.  I look our little eating area with the table my mom got us.  My kitchen is a galley kitchen but it is a great size and has tons of storage! My family room is a tan color and it very calming.  Most of my furniture is from IKEA.  I managed to put it all together with out cursing too much.  My couch I scored on Craigslist as well as the TV.  I love the montage of frames on the wall bu...

A Single Mom on Mother's Day

Mother's Day as a single mom looks a little different. There is no partner to take the kids out shopping for gifts or remind the kids to make something for mommy. There is a chance that on the weekend of Mother's Day you won't even have your child, you will have to ask if she can come home early to spend the afternoon with you. Mother's Day will be church in the morning alone surrounded by other mothers holding tightly to their children beaming with pride. You may feel slightly sorry for yourself but as you see other mother's you realize how incredibly lucky you are to be in their company and that there are many women who will never be called "mom." You count down the seconds until your daughter gets home as you do every weekend she is gone. You can't wait to hear about her weekend and snuggle on the couch soaking in every ounce of her smiles and love. You will even be thrilled to hear her father's girlfriend taught her to tie her shoes because...

The Big Cleanse

Image
Tomorrow I am embarking on a cleanse. It all started when Cristie and Amy banded together to get Amy healthier. I wanted in on the fun so Cristie and I talked about it, but then life happened and we never really connected. I started getting healthy on my own and things were going great. They still are but I have hit a little bit of a plateau now that I am back working. Last week Cristie told met that she was going to do a 2 week cleanse with some people, including Amy and did I want to join in? I jumped at the chance. Here I am on the day before the cleanse starts and I am FREAKING OUT! First, I am cutting out caffeine. I like to think that I am not addicted to my morning cup of coffee (or 2) but I am sure that I am. This one is going to be tough. I am not looking forward to it. Coffee has become a comfort for me in the morning so taking that away will be hard. I am going to replace coffee with some yum tea and hope that I can get comfort from that. Second, eating healthy is ...
