Christmas Delights!
Even the deer and turkey get a special Christmas treat! Later we counted 12 deer and 4 turkeys!
Kate and Major Briggs. Sorry-I couldn't get the picture to turn! It was saved vertical but won't load correctly to this stupid blog! Anyone know how I can fix it? Jackie??
All the good eats at the Erickson family gathering!
Getting ready for the perfect photo shot!
And yet again-sideways picture! Ugh! If you need to lay down to see it I guess you should. This one is beautiful!
Such a sweet picture of Audrey meeting Major Briggs!
Present opening is such pandemonium! But fun too!
Another perfect sideways picture! Jamey loves his dog!
Perfect picture...sorta! Love this one of Megan and Josh!
Audrey in her sleigh that Great Grandpa Erickson made for her!
Oh! The Excitement!

Christmas Cookies
Megan and Rick tried out the new spritz cookie maker Magan got me for Christmas! I think they both ate more of the batter then cookies that went to the oven! Oh well. It's all about the bonding experience I guess!
I just don't know why I can't turn my pictures around on this stupid blog! For whatever reason it won't upload them correctly even though I save them! Anyone have any suggestions? It's sooo frustrating.
This is a sideways view of the beautiful snowflake European Crystal for your sunny window or Christmas tree! Special pricing for Christmas- $28 (reg. $42). Call or email me for delivery by Christmas! What a beautiful unique gift for anyone looking to add a little positive energy into your space!

Christmas time...
It's Christmas time at Major Brigg's house.
He's all ready to greet his guests in his favorite warm holiday sweater!
Looks like he's warming up to the idea of spending Christmas by the fire!
Love you Major! Be a good boy so Santa comes to visit you!

Thanksgiving 2010
Rick, Megan, Cindy, Cory, & Christina
Let's Be Silly this time!
Josh's Aunt Laurie looks like she's being attacked by the new kitten.
In reality, "Pickles" was snuggling and climbed right up for a nap. Sooo cute!
Kelly has a way of putting these kitties into a trance. Mac was hilarious!
You couldn't wake him up even when you shook his legs! It was sooo funny!
Josh did a fantastic job on the turkey and fixings!
He's a great cook!
25 lb. turkey! Yum! Good job Josh!
Sleepy Boy "Pickles" 10 weeks old
Silly "Mac" 10 month old
Megan's fiance, Josh, hosted Thanksgiving this year! We are VERY thankful for him and his graciousness! Their home is so beautiful! They both cooked up a storm and were a great host/hostess. The new kitties were great entertainment and made everyone laugh! We're so happy that Josh and Megan are soon to be married and we look forward to many years of holidays.

Sweet picture of Jamey and Kate! So lucky to get this one because you can never catch Jamey without him making some goofy face. I really like this one. It's how I see them. In love.

AMAZING KIDS!!
Ok, I'm just gonna take the time to brag a bit here about my kids since I'm a VERY PROUD Mom!!
First, there's my son Jamey. By this picture you can see that he is ready to take on the world!
And "Taking on the World" has become his specialty. Besides owning and operating a million dollar business he has now been bestowed the honor and elected to the "Board of Trustees" for the College of Visual Arts in St. Paul!! I never knew the direction this son of mine would take to do such amazing things with his life but I never once doubted he would do it successfully! Congratulations Jamey! We couldn't be more proud!
Then there is my lovely, and beautiful daughter Megan.
Megan most recently got engaged to the "love of her life" Josh!
She has recently received a promotion in her career with SPS Commerce and continues to work diligently without complaint to move forward in the company. She lives in a trendy part of Minneapolis called "Uptown" and loves her independence!!
I can hardly wait to help plan the wedding for these 2 beautiful people. Their loving hearts and devotion to family is amazing!
I'm sooo proud of you Megan!!
Now let's just see who gives this proud Mother a Grandchild first!
I'm waaaaiting! :^)
I'm waaaaiting! :^)

They're at it again...
These boys just love to play. Jamey decided since he has a few extra weather balloons he might just as well do the experiment again. So off it launched from near Faribault, MN. Grandpa Gale got to do the honor of launching it into the atmosphere. Here's to landing in a corn field and not a rushing river aka Mississippi. finger's Crossed and more pics later!
