Christmas at our house...
...came a week early (due to the schedules of my far-flung children).
We spent a wonderful day together...
...filled with laughter and food...
...and I'm finally at liberty to share the most exciting news of all:
My first grandchild will arrive in the Spring!
(Woot woot!!!!!) :)
After noticing that our string of Christmas cards...
...was just the right height for such shenanigans...
...my tall son-in-law posed charmingly with my 'Caps For Sale' moustache!
He was also so delighted with Lydia's new felt purse...
...that he **pulled a Dawn Edwards!!
(**definition: turning any purse into a hat)
Using leather punches, shoe polish and woodburning tools...
...my daughters completed their new leather purse kits...
...in very individual ways...
...and each child received a tin of 'Thinking Putty'...
(one 'glow in the dark', one clear, one magnetic, etc.)...
...because everyone deserves a great toy for Christmas!! :)
Wishing you all a festive and love-filled day today!
Merry Christmas!!!
