Thanksgiving Weekend Codes, Mom and Son Pic
I decided that you can set your own percentage off by what you want or "need".
First If you spend $5.00 you get 20% off. Code: CD5for20
Second if you spend $10.00 you get 40% off. Code: CD10for40
And that is your cart has to have $5.00 before the coupon after the coupon it doesn't have to be over 5.00 to still get the 20% off. Same for 40% off of 10.00
Make sure you enter the correct code to get the most percentage off. The store will take only the one you put in. I will be uploading files as I can this weekend. Some old and some new. This coupon is now active and will be through Sunday. And you can use it as many times as you'd like.
Thank you for all your support.
AND Don't forget to sign up for BINGO at the forum!!! Lots of new files being created for this!!
Enjoy!

Pics of a rider and his Dad & off to the tire store. Oh yeah!
So here are my guys hanging out on the fence line watching the team penning. At one point a lady squeezed in and moved a bunch of horses over in the line. And my sons horse being smaller backed out of the line on her own. And my son says. HEY HEY HEY!! and the other adults who had been hanging out with him all day said. Oh Sorry! Did we squish you out! And they all moved their horses butts over again and Dalen pushed his horse up on the line again. Dad was grinning from ear to ear. It got to be be Dalen got asked for good luck by some of the older guys we know and Dalen would yell the whole time they were in there... Go Eddy.. good luck. gettem. Go Go Go Eddy. things like this. it was cute.
This picture above is Dad and Son playing around. My little one has to force his pony to go sometimes she would rather sleep. So he gets mad at her sometimes, but she is very forgiving when he pulls on her mouth. And knows I will come to her rescue and tell him to time out and calm down and how would he feel if someone was pulling on his mouth like that. Then he is very apologetic with his horse. Sits for a minute. And then starts anew with a better attitude. For a nag, she does press her luck sometimes and is stubborn. So he has a twitch on his saddle that he just picks it up so she can see it is there and she will do whatever he wants without question. I think the people before us really used the twitch on her unfortunately, but for us it means my son just has to pick it up and she will see it and go. And he doesn't ride her hard so all in all a happy relationship between the two of em. And this is the train next to the lot. Wow. It was closer then I realized when I looked at these pics.

New Bingo game Sign up today. Last Day for Dirt Cheap Deal. And my Anniversary!
And as for today! Melody is our Hostest with the Mostest for Bingo and I have given her a bunch of files to give away as prizes and grandprize will be a membership to the QMC for Jan-March.
So jump on in. and here is the direct link to the thread at the forum to join in.
And next.... the Dirt Cheap Deal is still running at the store today is the last day. Here is the link. And then here is the code to get the Holiday Tag Package for $2.39 the code is CD_DirtCheapB.
And today is my Anniversary. I have been married to my fabulous husband for 7 years today. We did the unimaginable and stayed together the night before our wedding because we already lived together. And my favorite memory is my husband woke me up at 4 a.m. and said... JUST THINK IN 12 hours from now you will be Mrs. Durnan. you will be my wife. What a memory to cherish every year since when I woke up. My husband gave me a poem this morning that he wrote. It couldn't be a better gift. I love it. Things have been tough as of late, but he is always the person I can turn to. The one I can count on for a hug and a smile. Oh and he has dreamy eyes. hmmm. wonderful! And the man can dance and loves to dance with me. If I get a chance later I will post some of those wedding pictures. My husbands fear during the wedding... That I would ask him if he was drunk at the alter. Because we would have ended up in a fit of the giggles. The first time he said "I love you" to me, we were at a rodeo and heading for the dance, I looked at him and said "are you drunk?" and mentally I was kicking myself over and over. DUMB DUMB DUMB Chris! What stop saying that. Insert your foot into your mouth before you say one more word!! My internal dialogue was brutal. And he waited another 3 months to say it again. And it was the longest three months, but now it has been the best and the most wonderful 7 years.
Well I am gonna go before I start to ramble and go on and on. Have a wonderful day!
Enjoy!

Dirt Cheap Deal ... tags..
I finally got a few more files in the store and offering one set as a dirt cheap deal. If you need tags for the holiday season You can get the 3 sets below for $2.39 using the code CD_DirtCheapB (the corrected code is with a B and not an A at the end. Please use CD_DirtCheapB) after placing the item in your shopping cart in my store. This coupon expires on the 25th. Here is the link to the item
The uplifting holiday tags come in 4 different kinds and are easy to cut, but add lots of depth to your project by just lifting the edge of the cut. The Holiday Word Tags are fun and easy to work with and make your packages cheery and bright and the Ornamental Tags can be used for any time of year. These can be put on your packages or emphasize a scrap layout! The creative uses are unlimited!
Thank you for supporting me! I am off to ride some horses and get back to the craft room on Sunday. woohoo!. Have a wonderful rest of the day!!

Was yesterday Monday? Bingo Winner. Icing. Icing. Icing.
Thought I would take a moment to say Hello and listen to some Christmas music! I am loving my little player just puts me in a positive mood. I am ready for the holidays. I know times are tight. Money is stretched thin, but I have therefor not gone to to many dinners or outtings and spent more time at home cutting and actually putting things together. This to me is exciting and makes me proud of my holiday gifts to others. The last few years I have been so rushed I have just been running and slapping things together. This year I am loving the ability to create. So that being the case I won't be posting my In Laws creation here because I know my FIL visits and reads my blog to hear about the antics of my kiddo. (waving to Papa). But I am interested to see what you come up with!
So I think when I get back I need to take a few moments to add more holiday music to the player. Woohoo!
Also.. we have a winner in Bingo and a Biggest Bingo Loser winner to! So congrats to everyone. The girls at the forum are already preparing for the next one. So keep an eye open. and if you wanted that custom frame. the coupon in the forum expires on the 20th. So login and get it and order yours today. I will give it to you in whatever file type you'd like.
And we are at the Icing!! for QMC members they know what that means... THE ICING ON THE CAKE and we are over 20 files in the QMC membership and therefore we have hit icing. The best part!! I will post the show and tell in the morning. Thank you to those who joined!
Enjoy!

Puppet Theater, Beautiful Flowers, last days to join the QMC 4th quarter
Woohoo!!
work some more on those.
And here are some pictures, I was informed by my 4 year old that it would be better on a table because then you wouldn't be able to see him. So true. So true. love him.
And then here is a pleasant sight. So I have this planter on the edge of my porch that has a mishmash of plants in it. In fact, I through a plant in it that my husband had bought me one day on the way home from work. I can't remember what it is called. It was beautiful I didn't water it right in the house. So I took the roots and planted them in this pot. Well they have been growing and growing and growing all summer. Big green stalks. I have gotten tons of teasing that it truly was a weed and I wasn't willing to admit it. Well now I am smiling with my cheshire grin. A beautiful plant. It made me smile when my hubby brought it home and it makes me smile when I see it now as I walk out the door. What a tease this plants has been all summer to pop out such beautiful flowers to add to my day. All is forgiven I will keep watering it. hahah.
If you are holding out on buying the qmc for this quarter you are going to miss out.. I just added a preview of another file I will have uploaded today. If I get a chance I will post the picture here later today. If you want to join. click the button on the top right of my blog.

made it in...
I think I am gonna take the QMC down for this quarter from the store. So if you want it now is the time. Alot of the files and not all of them are listed on the left hand side of my blog. You are looking for those marked 4th quarter Quarterly membership. The others may be from previous ones. Not many more are joining so I think it is time to close it down in the next few days. So jump on in if you are interested. otherwise on to new things.
I have been home the last few days with a 4 year old that is hacking up a storm. Tomorrow I think he is going to school just to give our Mother Son bonding a break. before it unravels and one of us leaves the situation insane. He did get some of his room clean today so this is a good thing. And I am cooking in the crockpot so the house smells good. Had to go to the grocery store and got some gonga deals. I was shocked. And so pleased with my frugal shopping. And the drive to the hay store. So a very eventful day, but not awesome for files. I do have a few to get up into the 4shared link and I do have a few new ones at the forum and a poll running. So if you want your say jump on over there.
i gotta head outside to sit by the chimnea and then to bed with my sleepy head.
Have a wonderful day!
Enjoy!

Vote today!
Grab your I.D. on the way out there.
Call your older neighbor on the way out the door to the polling place. Make sure he/she has a ride to the voting booth. It is more difficult with age to get places or do things. That extra helping hand will help them to once again in life feel important as they cast their vote.
Call your nephews and nieces that are over 18. Did they make it the poll? Make it known that their older family relatives find their opinion important and want to make sure they carry on the tradition and honor of voting.
Talk to your children about voting. Tonight give them the opportunity to vote on their dinner choice, the clothes they wish to wear. Something that gives them the feel of how it is to vote. I run on auto sometimes and put dinner on the table or pick out my sons clothes with only the thought of getting it done. Give them the choice, let them feel the right to vote.
Before you go read up on your propositions. Man those things are sneaky! Take a moment to review them and even write yourself a cheat sheet.
but it takes millions of ONES to be heard.
Please if you do nothing else today. VOTE.
See you tomorrow!
Enjoy!
Chris
