Christmas Cards - Designed For You! This year, I am offering my services to design Christmas Cards for you and your families! I will make them in StoryBook Creator Plus and you may order them through any local printer you'd like. However, I do highly recommend ordering them through Costco, as they are only $.39 per 5x7 print and you can have them printed with a matte finish. I charge $10 for a 1-hour "design session" in which I will sit down with you and your photos and make a Christmas card you'll LOVE! I ask that you come with a few things prepared: 1. Please bring photos that you would like to have included on the card. 2. Please think about what colors you would like to use in making the card. 3. Please have the wording for your card written out (ex. Merry Christmas, Love The Breeggemanns) Contact me today to set-up an appointment to design your Christmas cards! 952.270.1832 mbreeggemann (at) yahoo (dot) com Here are a few examples of cards I've made!

Everyone in the house has been sick or we would get out and do more and have a little more to chat about... This nasty cough that I have had since the end of October just wont go away.. Natalie, Lily and Nathan all have it too!! And on top of it Natalie had an upset tummy last week, and Nathan has an icky stuffy nose! I am so SICK of the germs around here! Booo! Friday Joe and I celebrated our 5 year wedding anniversary! We went to the Chanhassen Dinner Theatre and saw 'I do! I do!' It was good but I am really looking forward to 'Hairspray'!!! August 5th is the opening date for it there!! I got to see that play in High School in the cities and I fell in LOVE with it! The music and all! Neither of us had been there before so it was something different! Saturday we went for a visit in Carver... We came home and Joe made dinner. Pork steak and potatoes.. The meat had some serious funk going on! It looked funny even before he cooked it but he cooked it anyways hoping it wou...

We got our first snow of the year today! So of course the girls wanted to gear up and go play outside! They were out for oh about an hour the first time.. When they came in they started to take their winter gear off.. When Natalie took her coat off I noticed that she had her snowpants on backwards.. I helped her unzip them and when we got to the bottom of that zipper I noticed that Natalie had no pants on! All she had on underneath were her underwear! I asked her, "nan why are your pants off?" Her response was, "they are my snow pants mama I dont need other pants" bwahaha! Too darn cute and SO my Natalie! Unfortunately my camera was at home so I didnt get a picture but Erinn did so here is the one she got with her phone! After sitting inside for a few hours the girls decided that they wanted to go back outside and make a snowman. So Joe and his brother Richie took Kaylee and Natalie outside and they made a huge snowman! I will have to take a picture tomorrow morning...

We have been offline for a while now.. But.... WE ARE BACK ON! Hooray for air cards! Here is a quick update on the family.   Joe had an interview in Owatonna. We are waiting on a call back for a second interview. He has also gone in for some 'testing' in Bloomington for a job at Ziegler Caterpillar in Shakopee.. (wouldnt THAT be awesome!) He has also been having meetings up in Brooklyn Park for the new line that they are starting him on. This is a big thing for him as far as we know.. Brooklyn Park believes that they will be doing another hirring round come January! (Bring on 2011!)   Kaylee is liking her new Girl Scout troop! I enjoy having the ONE hour meeting on Monday nights versus the almost two hours that we did on Sundays with the other troop.. But I will admit, I miss the other girls, their moms (minus one in particular), and the troop leaders! Its tough going from a group of people that you have spent the past two years with to going to a new group of people and not k...
