Fa La La Christmas

Hello Peeps !!!

Merry Christmas !!!

May the blessing of Christmas touch each and everyone of us and enjoy the comfort of family and friends.

There is always a great joy  when I talk about my family. They keep me going every holiday season. Yesterday was a big celebration for us with lots of food and just enough presents for the kids. The adults enjoyed a great white elephant exchange gift and that was FUN !!! We even had a little time to play left-right-center a game I discovered from our recent cookie exchange. Another fun and exciting game.
I woke up early this morning cooking up a nice Christmas breakfast for the family. The grandkids will be here to open their presents and have some family time together.

Have yourself a Merry Christmas!!!

Hello Peeps !!!

Happy Saturday !!!

I wanted to catch up on some ideas for Christmas so I will not be doing Consider It cased today. I wanted to share this frame that I did for our Stampin' Chicks Christmas gift exchange.

Fa La La Christmas

Hello Peeps !!!

Happy Friday !!!

This is the coolest thing to warm up your holidays - and I actually did some sewing. I used the Deck the Halls fabric and made lots for gifts. I also have some left over striped ribbon that just make them so festive. I found the perfect saying from the Warmest of Wishes stamp set.
What are they? Rice bags that you can heat in the microwave for 2-3 minutes to warm hands and feet, soothe aches and pain. Just another great idea for Christmas.
