Nothing's better than a relaxing day in pajamas! ;)<br/><br/>Joanne ~ Roger's really digging the 12 Days of Christmas gifts. Every day I've given him a card and a gift. It was fun to come up with 13 gifts that he needed or wanted that could include things like a date to Cold Stone or to the movies. We're getting close to the end now ~ I have some nice little surprises in store for him! :)<br/><br/>De'Etta ~ It is nice to have Patrick around. He spent a couple of days at Ariel's house, but he's home again until January 6. I don't know if you remember this, but a LONG time ago you told me that someday my sons would actually get along, and you were right. It has been so cool, so heartwarming, and so touching to see them mature and begin to really grow a close brother relationship even though they are SO different from each other. Even though his room is a constant disaster, I love having Patrick home. :) <br/><br/>Emily, so far the Bare Minerals are working well for me. We'll see what happens this summer. I'm a fix it and forget it kind of girl. It it's not easy and done quickly I usually give up on it. Since I live in Arkansas, wearing makeup is challenging ~ in the summer it comes off two seconds after I put it on. This summer will be the true test of the Bare Minerals for me. My Vera Bradley purse came from one of the local Merle Norman shops ~ it's a discontinued pattern/fabric, so it was marked 40% off. I picked it out, asked the sales lady to hold it, then told Roger he could go by and pick it up! LOL Poor guy ~ he rarely gets to surprise me with presents because I usually have them already picked out! LOL Hi Kristine ~ we did have a nice Christmas. Nothing’s better than a relaxing day in pajamas! ;)

I can't wait to get it!<br/>Also, I LOVE Bare Escentuals. I have been using it for the last 4 years and I will never go back to liquid foundation. I love it because I never feel it on my skin.
