Stockings

I think I need to make these.  If only I could find some felt on a bolt that didn't cost me an arm AND a leg!

At the moment my sewing room looks like a mad scientist has been up there...and she has!  I'll post some of my things another day.

Christmas

I pulled out our Christmas decorations about a week after Thanksgiving.  Adrian was so excited to put up the tree and help.  We got everything up and then the next morning he asked where the snow was.  Poor kid!  He figured since the decorations were up we would automatically have snow the next day.  

My photography assistant.

Only one more candle to light.  I can't believe how fast the Advent season has gone by.  I had all these great plans to sew Christmas gifts.  I guess I better get a move on!

A three year old

Ryan turned 3 this month.  He's come a long way from the little guy he once was.  Here he is 8 days old.

Now he's a big 3 year old.  Here he is at his birthday breakfast. 

I made him a birthday crown, but he was less than thrilled to wear it.

Oh well.  Happy birthday little guy!  

Thanksgiving

I know it's December.  But I never posted anything about Thanksgiving.  I was able to take a few pictures before the crowd came and then that was it for photography.  

Mom and I set the table for 12 adults and 6 kids. 

Below is the kids table.  I made Thanksgiving hats for the kids.  They were kind of a bomb.  No one wanted to wear them...to bad.  I thought they were cute. 

Ryan kept his on for about 3 seconds.

We had a great time, excellent food and excellent company.
