This is our lovely Christmas tree this year. Don't ask to see the bottom third because it is void of decorations.
This was my grandma Allen's nativity set. When I asked for it my mom told me it was a long shot, but I guess nobody else wanted it. Score for me! The poor camel is missing its tail and back leg. Oh well.We put up our Christmas tree and Corban went to town. He broke about five ornaments that night. I was vacuuming up the broken pieces of glass and had put the vacuum aside for a short while. When I came back, he was vacuuming the floor around him. We decided since he seemed to love what he was doing to take the cushion off the couch and have him vacuum something productive!
We're definately purchasing some shatterproof oranments at the end of season sale.
This is our advent calendar counting down the days to Christmas. It took a lot of work, but it was kind of fun. I've found out that when I start a project Joe is right there to help out and give his opinion. He's usually right and his way is a lot easier than what I would have done. It's really quite aggravating to be wrong all the time.
I've seen some girls wearing these beaded watch bands and wanted one. I got my grandma's old beads and made some bands.
I'm trying to find a hobby. I've tried crocheting ... I don't love it. I've tried sewing ... I like it well enough. I can't show what I've crocheted because they are for my in-laws for Christmas. Above are burp cloths. They were super easy to make and I'm now making blankets to go with them.
