The Christmas Spirit

The Christmas Spirit

A good video to remind me and anyone else what Christmas is all about.

Merry Christmas and Happy Halloween !

The only pictures i had to post that hadn't been seen.

Every day at least 3 times Wyatt asks me if it is Christmas time and we can open presents. I have to tell him that just because it is snowing outside or just because this doesn't mean it is Christmas day. He doesn't quite get the whole 10 more days idea. I finally had to threaten to take away all of the presents if he didn't quit playing with them.

I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas. My thought are with you even if my Christmas cards aren't.
I'm grateful for our many blessings this year, for sticking to a budget that helps me remember the true meaning of Christmas.

The first pumkins of the Season

Grandma Maria and Grandpa Eldon came up for conference weekend. Grandma brought a pumpkin from her garden so we got to carve it. It was a lot of fun. I got to scoop out the pumpkin guts. Oh the joys of being a mom.

I thought I got an after picture too, but I guess not. It was good I promise. Now it is in the first stages of decay, so I'm going to put it in the compost bin.

Pictures in Canada

My family came to visit and we went to Canada, just to say we had been. Here are a few pictures with flags to prove it.

Another one Down

I think this makes three projects. This is a set of bedside tables to match a Mission style stickley bed. They turned out really well, except for a few minor details which you will not notice unless I disclose them, so I won't. I did want them darker, but there isn't much I can do about that now.
