Pondering Wool Projects

I am looking forward to doing some new wool projects. What will they be, maybe something for Valentine’s. There are some neat patterns in this book, maybe I will try something in there.

Wow!

Wow! I am so excited and honored  and thrilled! I just noticed A Primitive Place Magazine put some of my Christmas pictures on their blog! I am soooo excited, honored and thrilled! Did I just say that? Be sure to check it out there are some really pretty photos on there! I recognized Lynne’s primitive tree from Down Willow Lane, it’s gorgeous ! Eye candy as they call it!

The person you need is Nanny McPhee!

Anyone with or without kids or grandkids, this means YOU,  must watch the Nanny McPhee movies! They are SO GOOD!

They are not musicals either. I’m a really picky movie watcher and these are great! Great stories with great messages!

Merry Christmas!

Christmas at School

I took my camera to school today. I was going to get a picture of all these cute elves the kids colored but they had already taken them down. I did manage to find one lonely elf laying on a desk so I quickly took his picture. I thought they were so cute!

Since I brought my camera I just started taking some pictures.

Here are some elves, they are different ones though.

On this wall we have snowmen!

We always like to hide something around the holidays for the kids to find. It gives them something to do while they are waiting in line. Even the big kids have fun with it.

Here’s the Grinch hiding above the door.

Kids can be so much fun, especially the little ones, you never know what they are going to say. The other day a little boy came through and he kept saying, “Don’t look in his eyes!” “Don’t look in his eyes, you’ll hate Christmas!” Finally I asked him, Don’t look in whose eyes? To which he replied, “The Grinch!”

Maxine and I are a little upset

A while back I went to my junk mail looking for something and I found some comments that never got posted because they were in the junk mail. I also found some emails to me in the junk mail. I clicked on them and said they were not junk and put them as contacts. Today I went to check my junk mail and lo and behold there were some more comments and some of them were from people that have successfully left a comment before. It is very upsetting. I guess I will just have to check my junk mail at least every other day. I don’t like it when someone emails me and I don’t even know it, I don’t want them to think I am ignoring them. I won’t tell you what Maxine had to say about it!

Check out this window valance

When I was at Angi’s house I had to take a picture of her valance in her little pantry. I thought it was so neat. It spells their last name. Isn’t that the neatest idea?! You can click on pictures to enlarge. She said she got the letters at a craft show.

My New Candle

 

Look at the cute gingerbread candle my sister in law Julie gave me! Isn’t it sweet? It looks like you could eat the frosting right off it!

I think Gingy from Shrek is a little upset that my gingerbread are so cute! Oh well, he’ll get over it!
