  • Merry Elvis to You!

    I have so many Elvis ornaments on my Christmas tree, my den looks like Graceland. (Don’t worry, there’s an angel at the very top!)

    My friend Sr. Violet knows what an Elvis fan I am, so she sent me “a concert.”

    Click on this link to see Elvis singing “Blue Christmas” as a duet with a digitally added Martina McBride. “Modern technology at its finest,” says Sr. Violet.

  • Barbie Angel

    Sometimes it’s all just too much for me. Working full time, trying to keep a (relatively) clean house, figuring out what to make for dinner, staying on top of my daughters’ social calendars—then throw in Christmas shopping this time of year. Where would I find the time?

    In a frenzy over the weekend, I went online and ordered each of the girls a special edition Barbie. Holiday Barbie 2009 for Evangeline, and the more sophisticated Generation of Dreams Barbie for Louisiana.
