Got around to....

I actually got some things checked off my list in the past Month! Hooray! Here's the VERY short list....

1. Making some hair bows for the kids. I loved it and look forward to making more. I couldn't get the best shots of them, so you'll have to settle for this.



2. Finishing a Project. Jeremiah found this sucker outside for trash and snatched it up. It really didn't appeal to me at first, but once we sanded it down and got it painted, it started to grow on me. Sorry, no before pictures, just this almost after one. I sanded the edges a bit to try to "antique" it - yeah... not as easy as it looks. P.S. Yes, the circle spot is from the sunlight, it wasn't on the finished project, promise!



3. Taking the kids to get a picture with Santa. We went to the Pembroke Mall and finally got our children in a mug with the jolly fellow himself. They were so excited for that this year. (It's the first year we took them to a mall Santa and get pictures at that!) To make a long story short, we waited for him over an hour (not because of a long line, we got there when he was going on break), Julia had an accident in her pants 20 minutes before he got back, then Mel had to go potty, then Hunter needed to be fed, oi it was crazy! Perks were that Santa was so sweet, writing down what they wanted for Christmas this year on a little notepad (i.e. ponies and barbies for Mel and ponies and Dora for Julia) and then autographed/personalized a little book for each of them.
