enjoying this week


Yesterday Willem and I hit the Senior Center Thrift Store.
Everything in the store was 50 percent off!
I bought lots of fabric.
I plan to wrap Christmas gifts in some of it and I want to pass
some of it on to my sweet friend Maria. I have a feeling she can sew something with it or
maybe she too would like to use it for wrapping paper. I bought LOTS of fabric, two childrens books
and some votive holders all for $2.50 - can't beat that.


On Sunday the boys and I decorated a gingerbread house!
I love this tradition.
Yesterday Merit had a Christmas Around the World presentation in
his classroom. It was wonderful and fun! Third graders are something else.
I really love this age.
Last night, I got some quality visiting time with a few dear friends -- felt great!





I have had some time for card making!!

I have had lots of time to snuggle my sweet little blue eyed girl.

We officially begin Christmas break at noon today.
YIPEEEEEEE!
