It's an "OFF" day...

"Off-day" , definitely NOT as in: 

The Free Dictionary's meaning:

1.

off-day - a day when things go poorly; "I guess this is one of my off-days"

But as in: 

1. I'm OFF from work today :o)

2. My hubby is OFF today too! 

 

Let's see...lots of fun things to possibly do...especially with our two kiddos that are able to be home for Christmas, since they'll not be leaving until tomorrow... 

I'd love to get one of these luggage sets (I love to see what CSN has to offer.  I have to say that the All-Clad pot I purchased recently is just as I expected and came soooo fast!)  It was great to have to make a humongous amount of our turkey, beans and vegetable chili and low country boil for our kids).

oops...back to what I would do with some new luggage...

...take a trip...with all our kids...to anywhere...Europe, Asia, Mediterranean, Carribean, Africa, Australia, Americas...um...not to sure about Antartica though.

So far, we have had a wonderful Christmas eve...

And we stayed awake late, so that Mr. B could open up his birthday gifts...

Had fun just hanging out with each other...

opening gifts with Girly~Twirly and her hubby (in another state) courtesy of today's technology...through IPhones!

listening to Heartbreaker on his new banjo...

eating out...

 and eating out again...

So...don't know yet what we'll do today... maybe cruise around downtown Savannah...look for some After-Christmas deals...   although it would be pretty amazing to get up, on the spur of the moment and fly out to some distant shore...  spending our "OFF day" with our kiddos is extra-special, just cuz we are together...

What would you do if your family were together? Where would you go? 

Hm...better get OFF the computer...cuz soon we'll all be heading OFF to spend an awesome day together!

Here are a couple more orders...

From Diane:

"...I think that design is great and he will love it. I would like to ask you if you could possibly put the 101st Airborne insignia on it also? I have been looking at this for his birthday, Dec 26th, for some time but was afraid I had waited too long. I am so glad you are able to do it and hopefully I can even get it framed before his special day. I will let you know how he responds to it!!..."

Velma sent this request:

"...We were thinking of giving the sketch as a congratulatory gift to someone who will soon be appointed as a department head (and we loved what you did for our former boss, Mike, that Lee had given him).  We'd like to keep a tropical theme, I think, but I'd love to see what you were planning on sending me.  I had looked online for a photograph of tropical flowers, but I don't know how I'd send the image to you.  I was thinking of perhaps an anthurium with an anthurium leaf?  Something along that line...."

We'd need the product by the end of the month...is that doable?

Thank you Velma, for thinking of these as a gift. And for your email and feedback:

"I received the sketch over the weekend in perfect condition.  It's beautiful!  Thank you very much..."

"This is a perfect gift with a personal touch that makes it extra special. It turned out beautiful, and Maria is a pleasure to work with. Service was very fast and reliable; and Maria was most helpful. Thank you from Hawaii!"

If you are interested, feel free to enter for one of the art giveaways. This ends on Dec 31st @ midnight. For more info, please take a look at my Dec 18th post.

 Hope everyone had a blessed Christmas! 

...and here's a greeting for the upcoming new year... Hau'oli Makahiki Hou! (Happy New Year!)
