Meet the family

Merry Christmas 2008!

This is us! We're imperfect but we try hard. I wanted the "perfect" family photo and realized that was silly... we're human and definitely not perfect any day of the year, why send a photo like that? So please ignore my daughter's strange look on her face, the baby with his fingers in his mouth, and my oldest son not even looking at the camera. Hubby and I love these children more than anything and hope that you are enjoying your holidays with the ones you love!

*I'm working on my Christmas cards now so that's why there is this zany post from no-where. Maybe I'll use this photo instead? lol. Crazy me... rambling... I'll post a freebie soon to make up for the insanity. :)*

Meaning behind the crazy name

Well I guess I should get around to explaining my odd name. :) I am actually Christina but my nickname Wimpychompers is odd and I realize that. There is a goofy reason behind it and no, my teeth aren't *that* bad. lol.

My best friend and I were at camp when we were 13 (it was a camp for girls and we go from the ages of 12 to 18... so fun!) Anyways, they were giving out nicknames as a joke around the campfire. My friend is a known wimp and she was nicknamed "Wimpy". They named other girls and by the time they got to me I was chewing bubble gum (I rarely ever did so this was an unusual thing for me). They nicknamed me "Chompers" which I hated but, of course, stuck. I was looking for a sign in name for something probably 10 years ago (ha, giving my age away now.. lol... I am 27 by the way) and put the two nicknames together. Ironically it worked and is not a common name (come on, who would use it?) That's how the nickname was born. I have my tutorial site "Wimpys Wonders" and then as a creator I go by "Wimpychompers Creations".

Had to share that with you today. It made me giggle.
