Gift Wrapping.

I love wrapping and decorating Christmas gifts. I'm all done for now till I do more shopping!

This gift has 12 pieces so they all got numbered in the order they are to be opened. T and Big Sister helped me decide which one should be opened first, second, etc.

T made this star and was rather proud of his accomplishment! I was rather impressed myself:-) It makes a nice decoration for the top of gift #10.

This is my Mom's Christmas present. Can't tell you what's in it 'cause I don't want you to tell her!!!!!!!!!!!

Decisions and a Baby Shower gift!

This is what I've been deciding over recently! Middle Sister turned 5 in August and Little Sister turns 3 in November. They just got their pictures taken and I had to decide which ones I wanted for 8x10, wallets, etc. We have a fabulous photographer (it helps that we know her well!) and always get lots of great pictures. It was fun and I've got it all decided now so I can forget it till the pictures get here!

This is what I've been working on, 'Sewing a fine Seam!' These little birdies will be part of a mobile I'm making for a baby shower gift (Joni, don't tell!!!) You can see a finished mobile here. A friend emailed me the link to this and I, of course, fell in love with it! Since I have a friend having a baby soon, I knew it was the perfect thing! Now that the birds are finished my husband will have to help me with the rest of it. I'll post some finished pictures soon. (I hope!)

Here the little guys are conspiring for the best roosting spots on the soon-to-be mobile:-) We'll have to hurry before they decide to fly away.

Birthday Party!

A little out of order, I wasn't sure how they would upload. First time I've uploaded more than one at a time! Middle Sister loved her birthday, everyone was very hyper all day. She looks darling in this pink and brown outfit from Grandma and Grandpa!
I just couldn't bring myself to buy a cake at Kroger so I made one. Very simple and definitely not the prettiest cake I've ever made but it was good!
Balloon bouquet from Grandma and Grandpa.

Larke kept saying she wanted a monkey cake so I used the sock monkeys as a center piece. I didn't have time to make a monkey cake but the theme was kind of there:-)

Birthday Girl's place!

All 3 sisters playing with the new Thomas the Tank Engine toys. I know, I have girls but they love Thomas!
