Working and Playing Hard!

Well, since getting back home and unpacked our time has been pretty split between working hard and playing hard. We didn't spend very much money on a lot of Christmas gifts for the family, instead I stalked Ebay and got a good price on a Wii and it was waiting for us when we got home.

Corbin LOVES playing the Wii Sports baseball and Mario Kart. I spend most of my time on the Wii Fit and Mario Kart. I have lost 4 lbs already! Tekara got Rockband from our Dad so she plays on that alot as well as some Mario Kart and Wii Fit. Tim plays just about everything.

When we're not playing we've been working hard. Tekara is maintaining a 4.0 GPA in school, Tim started his BIG semester at school where he's placed in a group and they have to go through all the steps of planing and organizing a business and then they actually have to do it! It's a lot of work and he's been very focused on school. I am very proud of him!

Corbin has been working on potty training- YEA! But I am finding that he'll only go in the toilet if he has no pants on at all....therefore he spends most of the day with his bottom-half naked! Hopefully in another week we can try big boy underware and see if he'll still go to the toilet.

I have been working very hard at creating new designs for Spring and Summer for my Vinyl Design busniness. I am adding new designs every day through January and into February.

I am also hosting a $25 Gift Certificate Giveaway on my design blog www.empressivedesigns.blogspot.com. You can go and check it out and participate. I am also tweeting now on twitter....it's been kind of fun!

I will also give each person a vinyl 'freebie' for helping me advertize on their blogs. You can do this by creating a post talking about my little shop with pictures, or I have a little picture that you can put in your side bar that you can link to the store as well. Let me know and I will send you a vinyl cut of your choice for free.

Can you help me? Thanks a bunch and I do a "friends and family discount" as well...hint hint!!
