The new blogg

2011-03-22T09:43:00.000-05:00

I am now offically openning up my blogg for review! I have done some much needed changes and now I believe I am ready to get this thing rolling. Unless my three year old barges in here yelling at me for his evey need then this blogg gets to be paused until otherwise.

I have picked up photography for fun. (like everyone right now). But the difference between my photography is since I am new & it is for fun, its no charge until otherwise noted!

If anyone seems to be interested then just let me know.

What is a Christmas tradition?

In most homes Christmas comes with traditions. New traditions & old traditions create a sense of growth in a family. I know with the hustle & bustle of the holidays family can get away from each other. Love is a special thing to hold onto during the holidays. I hate that fact some kids do not know what Christmas is like. They have never felt that feeling. As a kid you would believe that feeling to be magic. The representation of Christmas is to bring out love. For all those into Christmas spiritually understand that Christmas is about being apart of a birth that changed us forever. As traditions spread Thru families, many are lost in time. It is nothing more than regretful to lose some of the most special traditions a family once worked so hard to create.

I know for my family we thrive on traditions. Especially for our children. We want them to be instilled with all the family values and core elements that keep a family strong. Putting up a tree with lights and all the fixings; that makes us feel happy. Buying gifts and wrapping them make our home feel full. Having Christmas music playing while driving around looking at lights make a comfort of love for our family. Baking all the yummy foods gives us a chance to laugh with each other. All these simple yet meaningful things makes our family stick together. Times have not always been easy but we are strong.

Enjoying your traditions with your loved ones will make your life feel full. Making a new life is worth the risk rather than taking a chance at no life at all.

A few holiday tips...

Christmas is right around the corner and I have some great shopping tips that might make your pockets happy...

check out e-bay for great grabbs that are totally worth price... like the newest in Wii Games, PS3 and other great games. If you check out what you are looking for early then you can get great deals.
Amazon will have great buys on items that you normally do not find in stores. Plus they have free shipping if you purchase a certain amount- which is always good because sometimes shipping can be costly!!
There are great buys at Kmart online and the neat thing about it- is that there is lay way if you need it!! Many places dont value lay way anymore so that is a great thing to know for the holidays.
finding crafty web sites to up load your family pictures are awesome- you can customize your pictures back ground and make them personable for gifts for x-mas. this is a great gift saver.

Gifts online are easier and sometimes well worth the price. Give it a try and look at the things you can reward your whole family with!! Just a little tid bit from the Cannon's!

I CANT BELIEVE MY YOUNGEST IS NOW TWO YEARS OLD! JUST THE OTHER DAY I WAS PUKING MY GUTS OUT AND WISHING I WAS DEAD - I HATED BEING PREGNANT. THE MERE THOUGHT OF BEING A WHALE AGAIN IS FRIGHTENING. I WOULD LOVE TO HAVE AT LEAST ONE MORE CHILD. MANY OF MY FAMILY MEMBERS THINK THAT ITS INSANE. OF COARSE THE CHORE THAT IT IS TO HAVE A NEW BORN IS A VERY BIG ONE, YET IT IS BLESSING ALL IN ONE. MY CHILDREN ARE CRAZY AS EVER. I NEVER THOUGHT THAT HAVING A COUPLE OF BOYS WOULD BE SO EXHAUSTING.WHEN THEY SAY BOYS ARE SO DIFFERENT THAN GIRLS- WELL I BELIEVE THAT. GIRLS ARE SO MUCH RESERVED AT A YOUNGER AGE AND BOYS ARE SO WILD. THEN IN A FEW YEARS THE GIRLS WILL BE WILD AND THE BOYS WILL BE CHILLED. IRONIC ENOUGH BOYS PICK UP ON CERTAIN STUFF SLOWER THAN GIRLS. MY OLDEST THRIVES ON BEING TREATED LIKE A BABY, THE YOUNGEST THRIVES ON BEING INDEPENDANT. NIGHT AND DAY WITH THESE TWO GUYS. THEY BOTH ARE IN SCHOOL & ENJOY IT. BUT MY YOUNGEST LIKES PAPER? WHY? WHY DO KIDS LIKE TO EAT STUFF- ESPECIALLY PAPER? I AM LIKE AHHH WE HAVE A RAT! HE LITERALLY EATS THE CORNERS OF BOXES AND ALL! I THINK THE CORRECT TERM FOR THIS IS PICA- YET I BRING IT UP TO HIS DOCTOR AND THEY THINK I AM CRAZY- SO IF ANYONE HAS HEARD OF THIS BEFORE PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CHIME IN AND TELL ME SOME THINGS TO DO TO FIX THIS- OH AND JACOB & I TRIED PUTTING HOT SAUCE ON THE BOXES THAT ARE IN HIS CLOSET- AND HE WALKED AROUND SAYING HOOOOOTTT AHHH= LOL. SO YES MY KIDS ARE ALWAYS DOING SOMETHING TO IMPRESS MY WELL BEING-
