I did get some sewing in this weekend. I made a couple purses for a friend of Joy's who bought one. She wanted a blue one so I made 2 different ones so she could have her pick.


Our house is as decorated as it's gonna get for Christmas. We tried to not have a Christmas tree because we'll be home for Christmas, but it's just wasn't working for me and after a meltdown, Mike went and bought me a tree as a surprise. He's such a great guy. It has a handful of ornaments on it. After seeing the cat try to play with them and Elliot try to use the tree limbs as something to stand up against to reach the ornaments, I decided it's not going to have more ornaments. Too many of mine are too old and irreplaceable so I don't want any to get broke. Especially since we leave next Wednesday for a week and Blackjack is going to be one pissed off cat. I'll be surprised when we return if the tree has any needles on it and if it's still standing up.

I saw this on Shannon's blog, a friend of Steve and Ronda's and thought it was so cute and festive that I copied the idea and decorated our dining light in a very similar fashion.
Peanut's first pony ride. Well, not really a ride since he just sat on the pony and the lady took our picture, but I guess it can count as his first pony experience. I can't wait for him to be 3 years or so old so we can start him riding. Yeehaw!
Our development had a Santa celebration going on and they had pony rides for the kids. The lady was so nice to take a few pictures for us. I think Peanut was more interested in our shadows or something than the pony but that will change soon enough. That's all for now. I'm off to try to get my sick baby into bed so I can follow right after him.

Hi Crystal! Ronda told me about your greenery on your dining room fixture too. I'm happy I could inspire you! :o) We just took all of our Christmas decorations down today. The house looks so bare now, but fresh too. Hope all is going well for you down there. I love the photos of the restoration of the furniture! Wonderful!
Happy New Year to you!
