I made my family quilts this year, here are pictures of them with their quilts and upclose pics of the ones you can't see very well. They each just loved them. When they started opening up the gifts Jonas went straight for the big boxes because he wanted to know what was in them. He wasn't dissapointed, he wrapped it around him and wanted to walk around giving everyone's gifts. I hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas!!

It been a busy Holiday Season. I made pillowcase for really inexpensive for my 2 daughters friends for Christmas, and I attached a poem to go with it. Here's the poem:

December is a magical time
with all sorts of colors, ribbons, and rhymes.

The reason is special
as you will see

It's that it has been dusted
with Christmas Fantasy.

Visions of candy canes, Santa and treasures
will fill each dream with sweetness and pleasures.

When the time comes for it to be washed,
Do it quickly do No magic is lost!

This is my gift I gave out this year to a few neighbors, friends and family. The picture just doesn't do it justice it is really pretty all lit up!

My kids are so excited for Christmas to come. Piper is asking if she gets ot open a gift today and when it will happen. Hope everyone has a save and wonderful Christmas!!!

Last night we had my sister and brother n law and my friend Liz and her husband Rogelio over for games. It was so much FUN!!! We played a new game Mad Gab which was so much fun. It's been so awesome that Shane will play games. It's nice because it doesn't cost anything for a adult night out!

Today Shane and I watch Jonas and Piper sing Christmas songs at school. Piper was so much fun to watch. We didn't get to see Jonas sing because of where we were sitting. All the grades did a great job!!

I'm almost ready for Christmas. I just have loose ends to tie up...which always take longer then expected. I'm so excited for Christmas to come. It's like a kid in a candy store. It will be so much fun to see my kids reactions when the get the quilts I made them. There reations I'm sure will be priceless!!!! Hope everyone is having a good Holiday so far!!

So I'm really bad at this blogging. Here's what I have done over the last couple of weeks. I finally finished the HOHOHO letters I was working on. They turned out okay I think.
I've made several of these blankets over the last year and given them away as gifts. Two of these were for twins and the other one I made for Piper. I love making them, it's fun to see out it all comes together in the end.My friends Liz (far right), Kristine (next to me) had a girls night out on November 22 nd. We went to dinner and then to see the much anticipated movie TWILIGHT. I went went with NO EXPECTATIONS. It worked I loved the movie. I would like to go again sometime.

My friend Liz and I are going to see the Twilight movie next weekend when it comes out. We already have our tickets. Last night at my husbands cousin Open House for he and his wife, I found out another one of his cousins sells Twilight inspired Jewelry. I bought my daughter, Liz and myself a pair of her Fork earrings. Her website is: http://www.sellesetsy.etsy.com/ check it out if your a fan like i am you'll like her Jewelry. I went to http://www.twilightersanonymous.com/ and took one of there quiz's to find out which Cullen I'm like. I'm like Esme...


Today has been like any other Sunday, Napping, reading, or working in the office on a project. Right know I'm working on my Calendar gifts for my Mom and Mother n law. I have so many pre-done layouts that I went thru them and picked ones out I can use. Next year I hope to get started earlier so I can have some inspiation. Well gotta run until next time.

Boy I'm new at this my last post you can't even see that I did blog anything unless you click on the time. I think that's because I posted the pic after I blogged and submitted it. So here it goes... So here's part of my gift for my husbands cousin and his wife. I think it turned out pretty well if I do say so myself. I also was able to get 27 8x8 pages done to give them. I'm going to wrap it and take it over to them early because his mom is wanting to display pictures of them, so I want to give them the option if they would like to display them at the Open House.

Now that I'm done with this project I need to clean up my mess. I'm a big MESSY scrapbooker...plus I need to get ready for my workshop on Saturday. Have a great day!!!!!

Well here goes nothing...I'm a blogger. I've been busy getting my little projects done. I just finished my winter letters and I think they turned out well. I'm still working on my HOHOHO letters, they will have to be put aside for now. My husbands cousin was married in Brazil and his wife was finally able to come to the U.S. after about a year and a half. There is an open house this Saturday for them. I'm wanting to do a album for them, we'll see hopefully I can get it done.
