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.
