Christmas is coming.....


Look I've unpack my kitchen items for holiday baking! I've spent much of the weekend making little hooks for my holiday finds.... I found these cute little baking ornaments in Hallmark mini collection this year.... along with the gardening ones... which I hope to be doing some of in the Spring with the flower beds and pots around the yard....

I'm hoping to have my tree in all its mini glory on my new quilt rack/shelf by week's end... our dental office Christmas party is at my parents this coming weekend... and I know some of the girls are going to want to peek in my "yiddle" house as Haven calls it.

Giving thanks for ... CHOCOLATE Swap!!




Thank to Sharon for having this little swap! MMMMMMMMM yummy! My treats from Donna lucky for me didn't melt on my cute bag... yes it a little colder here than it was in Redlands.... besides I needed something to display in my Christmas sleigh! Of course the edible part of the display didnt last long.....

Halloween Girls... a little belated!






I know.... many of you thought I'd dropped off the planet ... somedays .. I think I did too! I was going to try and track down better photos of the girls at Halloween... but "oh well" ....


I was baby sitting Haven that day too so we spent time before nap baking ... and after nap decorating and best of all EATING cookies!!













Just as we finished decorating my sister n law got home from work so it was time to get dressed for the Halloween Party .... Haven was Monkey Girl and happy to demonstrate how to eat the banana they'd fixed in the pocket! Cascade was Lil' Stinker! She had been a Lioness at an earlier party .... Grandma went over board buying the costumes this year .... they were made by a daughter of a teacher friend ... her daughter is a designer for Old Navy!
