I hope you all had a fun weekend including holiday festivities and preparations. Dan and I just finished shopping and wrapping yesterday, started and finished shopping Saturday, wrapping on Sunday. Yes, we are the king and queen of procrastination.
Anyway, I digress. I am happy to introduce to you my past two weekends, through pictures. After the tragedy here in Newtown, Karla and I decided that we would cancel last weeks linkup. However, it is back and I have lots of pictures for you all. Enjoy! If you tried to link up last week, put both posts in the linkup, that way we don't miss anything :) *All descriptions will be from top left to right, and the middle picture last :)

 My origami owl necklaces.

The top is a silver crystal lined locket that contains a rose gold plate that says 'love life,' a G for our last name, a pink gemmed heart, a ring, and both our birthstones.

The bottom is an inspirational necklace. A little pearl, happiness, and a feather which I think means you only live once, so live free and now.
