Merry Christmas 2010

Just like that, all our prep is done.  Dinners are eaten.  Gifts are opened.  The children are happy with their new toys.  We just have the New Year to think about and then it will be 2011.  Time just flies by way too fast.  I guess it's really not that far fetched to start thinking of what we will be making for next Christmas.  I for one will probably be a procrastinator and be way behind again next year.

But, I do hope you all had a very Merry and Happy Christmas with family and friends;  and I look  forward to all the new projects we will be working on in the new year. 

Sit back, kick up your feet and enjoy yourselves and remember all the wonderment that Christmas brings

Merry Christmas to all my friends.

Baby it's cold outside!

It's really been cold here in Michigan, so I thought I would share just a  couple of  my "indoor" snowmen.

The one around my flocked tree are a little hard to see, but there are a few of the "ice cube" snowmen at the base. 

A couple weeks ago we were suffering through 12 below wind chills with temperatures going down to about -6 at night.  I was going to make my winter hat (knit), but I didn't have the right sized needles, so instead I got out my wool yarn and made myself a pair of socks. 

 I have to say, they kept me toasty warm  this past weekend when we did the Christmas Walk at Greenfield Village. 

Hope everyone is staying warm and that you are ready for the holidays.  I finally am; and I am looking forward to all the festivities with family and friends.
