Merry Christmas



The boys are worse than the kids when it comes to waiting to open presents! Reeses drives me crazy! And yes they get the same amount of gifts as the kids, plus stockings :)

PLLLEEEAAASSEEE!!!!

"I'm over it"

How does he know that's his stocking?!





Horribly blurry but I love her expression :) She loved the sing-a-majigs more than her other presents!


What the kids left Santa, Random? Yes...yes it is

From Santa!


It's not your's Peanut, I'm sorry

Pine Cone Christmas Trees

This is such an easy craft to do with toddlers, my kids loved it and it kept them busy for an hour! I think they turned out pretty cute, and I strongly recommend spray glitter! It's awesome! Some ended up crooked because of the bottom of the pine cone, but thats ok :)

Wow I need school!

I have been out of school for two weeks i think and i am already bored out of my mind! I'm the type of person who most of the time must be busy with something! I forgot how crazy i am without school! I don't go back till the middle of January either so still a month left pretty much. So, what am I going to be doing with my time? Crafting! I joined a Mel Brooks themed craft swap (he is my all time favorite person!) and I am working on Christmas presents, still not enough for me! I am thinking about teaching myself to sew better, I can do enough to get by, and can put rank on uniforms but not much else. I would go back to my challenge but I already used up majority of my supplies since then.
So, here's to learning my sewing  machine inside and out! Plus finishing my Christmas crafts!

November Crafting!

I am not big on Thanksgiving, I do enjoy cooking for it and making my yummy turkey, but I don't decorate or make a fuss about it. I loved it until my Grandfather passed away 5 yrs ago, it was his favorite holiday "It's the only day you can eat a piece of every pie and not be a pig", and he would eat every pie :) So since then I usually either ignore November or I start on Christmas! This year is all about Christmas, even though it was 100 degrees here yesterday...seriously...it was...ugh Anyway I already started working on a few crochet projects:
A Candy Cane throw
This Christmas Tree Pillow: Pillow
Once I am done with those I am going to start on a few felt pillows I found in a Christmas Craft magazine and also a very colorful felt wreath and tree skirt for the toy room.
I am also going to make a crochet Christmas tree!
I'm sure I will find more so no telling how many things I will make especially since school for me ends on Tuesday yay!!! So be on the look out for finished crafts!
