I might have cried, though the whole image you painted along with Steve's red face and your hyena cackle made me laugh. But your grinch face was impressive!<br /><br />All your pictures and sweet cats always make me smile. <br /><br />And what a beautiful message about the best things in life not being things. A great reminder for me!Grumpy Grateful Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18280877945184331361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5300377719002499843.post-75334541092032754162011-12-29T13:19:50.159-08:002011-12-29T13:19:50.159-08:00Great pictures!

WEIRD. She was over here logged into her email, maybe that did it? Anyway, let's try this again!<br />I never knew I could have so much enjoyment at 5:00am. I am sitting on my couch, under 2 blankets, with a box of double stuff oreos next to me, reading your blog.<br />SO as I am going to town on these oreos (that I TOTALLY forgot I bought) I realize I need to put them down because your blog is making me laugh too much.<br />OMG I could picture the whole Steve SUV scene perfectly. As soon as I read, "MARIA STEER RIGHT" I started laughing, and never stopped. I'm seriously still laughing right now, with cookie crumbs all over my shirt hahahahaha.<br />As for your kitties, mine do the same thing with their mouseys. I wake up in the morning, and the mouse "guts" are all over the place. I have got to get one of those ball thingys, omg that looks so entertaining!<br />I'm so happy that your Christmas went perfectly. Your Dad wants to give you the rocking chair?? Maria that's beautiful! Speaking of beautiful, you looked just as gorgeous as always on Christmas!! I always want to go shopping in your closet too.<br />I'm seriously about to leave this comment, and go read your post over again. You and Steve SHOULD have your own tv show. hahaha :) Hope your New Years is fantastic!<br />Lots of love! <3 <3 Michellewaitingforarainbowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03312022219398776376noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5300377719002499843.post-22186752228973473352011-12-29T02:05:59.231-08:002011-12-29T02:05:59.231-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.neverthesamehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15328684569014262541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5300377719002499843.post-41689077625782396262011-12-28T21:03:16.872-08:002011-12-28T21:03:16.872-08:00Goodness gracious!

Jake was SIMPLY going to change the break pads with his dad's help... shouldn't have taken more than an hour, right? Nope. It was a full 9-4 day of work. It turns out something else was broken and they ran into some other hassels along the way due to their, shall we say, butterfingers. :) <br /><br /><br />I love all of your pictures. You look like you had a wonderful Christmas -- I'm so glad! :) Your family (including kitties!) is just so adorable -- you can tell that there's just SO much love!<br /><br />I hope that your last days of 2011 are great ones!

Your cats certainly were comfortable amidst the wonderful Christmas scene and I can see they enjoyed the season too!:) I am sorry to read about the car troubles you had but I am glad you were able to have a good laugh. It helps to ease the stress in such situations!:) It is great that you are able to make such lovely Christmas wreaths. They are special decorations indeed. Christmas is definitely a time to spend with family. You captured these moments and have the pictures to remind you of the good times. I hope your Nani continues to feel better with each passing day. Oh by the way, your parents' dogs are so cute! Lovely post as always. The ending is so inspirational. It certainly has lifted my spirit. Lots of Love and best wishes for great things for you and Steve in 2012!<br /> JudyAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07742935336463111471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5300377719002499843.post-91494557464090595842011-12-28T12:22:58.760-08:002011-12-28T12:22:58.760-08:00Looks like you had a great Christmas (aside from t...Looks like you had a great Christmas (aside from the car)!

My favorite quote on this post:
If ...Awww Maria... My favorite quote on this post:<br /><br />If you surround yourself with the ones you love - the ones who love you back - who love you good...<br />None of those little empty boxes matter.<br /><br />That is so true, and so exactly how I have felt this year.<br /><br />I have to laugh about the car, and just remembering you hysterical on the phone with me "asking" to leave your car at my house. PLEASE! You KNOW we would not have cared! LOL! <br /><br />I can just picture Steve in the back window, with the cheezy movie back drop mental picture you painted. OH MA GAAA! hahahahahahaha! That stinks so bad that your car broke down on Christmas Eve, but you handled it so well.<br /><br />Your Christmas looked so nice, and I was so touched that your dad gave you that rocking chair. I love sentimental gifts like that.<br /><br />And what's with this SECOND "Crafty Maria" post????!!! Jessica and I are transforming you into a wreath making diva! :) They look SO PRETTY, Maria!!!<br /><br />Of course, I loved all of the pictures! And I love that your cats actually sleep on GIANT "doggy beds". hahahahahaha! SPOILED ROTTEN!!!!! :)<br /><br />I'm so sorry I keep cancelling on you. My poor kids and this darn stomach bug. I won't have them tomorrow - and I plan to get out of this house and go SOMEWHERE. Even if it means going to the mall or the movies by myself. I'm determined! :)<br /><br />Well, I'm taking up your whole comment section :)<br /><br />HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU!!!<br /><br />xoxoxoxoxo<br /><br />~ KellyKelly @ Stay at Home Traderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03241810590949600932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5300377719002499843.post-79637201865024353602011-12-28T06:30:06.793-08:002011-12-28T06:30:06.793-08:00Yes, and thank you for not going crazy over the ca...Yes, and thank you for not going crazy over the car....
