Merry Christmas!

So, I am a bit behind in posting...but better late than never. One of my goals for 2012, is to get a bit better at keeping up. It seems like life gets in the way sometimes! :-)
Twas the Night before Christmas...and all through the house, the yells of three VERY excited munchkins could be heard! The milk is ready for Santa - now to bed before he arrives!

One of the traditions I enjoy most at our church is the Lighting of the Advent Candle by the littlest in the church. All three kiddos did it this year - but somehow I can't find the boys pics! The Princess has her turn - in the same dress that was worn by both her aunt and cousin. To make it even more special - her Great Gram is the one that sends the kids down the aisle - and it was special time for each one of the kiddos with her.


And finally, here we are at Christmas morning....WHAT could be hiding under those blankets?

Daddy picked this year's gift - and I think it was a hit! About 40 degrees outside, they were in nothing but their pj's, but they drove for about an hour!!!! I don't know who was having more fun - Daddy or the kids!
R's turn for the car - and B is looking for the break on his side! I think she is going to be a better passenger than driver! LOLAnd lest you think I am doing absolutely nothing - some knitting has been happening! The boys needed new hats, desperately. They asked for camouflage hats. I found some camo yarn (MUCH easier said than done, by the way!) and made two hats. The morning W wore his to Nonny's house, my little 9 year old nephew sidled up to me and said 'If I had a camo hat, I would wear it." Now, how do you, as a knitter, resist that? I didn't - and his was under the tree! :-) And as I am working on what I thought would be the final hat, Andy looks at me and mentions that I must love everyone else more than him, because he would wear a camouflage hat. So, yep, that necessitated another one! I am SICK of camo yarn! hehehehe BUT - the boys are all wearing their hats almost every day - including Andy! And I have orders for more all around! Nice to know my work has been appreciated.

I think this has been long enough - but I already have my first project of 2012 finished, and there is big news ahead, so stay tuned!
