When No One is Looking

When no one is looking this sweet faced boy goes from this:

To this:

That's right folks after spending the better part of the afternoon tidying his bedroom I went downstairs to make dinner. When I came back up to let them know it was ready this is what I found. That little stinker dumped almost and entire bottle of powder all over his train table and body! He walked over to his dresser and grabbed a wipe from the container and said "here mommy, here's a wipe". I then made him stand in the crime scene so I could take a photo........

But darn he is cute.......

Happy Cismas

I have been a busy little elf trying my darnedest to get my crafts finished. I'm not doing bad.

I decided to also try and crochet a tree skirt in the midst of everything else. I am not going to kill myself though, if it gets finished this year great, otherwise there is always next year!



And finally here is a shot of the "Cismas" tree, as Tripp calls it, after he had his hand at decorating it. Thank goodness for shatter proof ornaments. Hmmmm bet you would never guess how tall he is....

I hope you and your family are having a great holiday season!

Newly Listed

A fun little scarf for the cold weather I just listed in the shop.

Man I have really been enjoying crocheting lately. Quick little projects at night are so satisfying!

** In other news school has been going good here and the kids are still enjoying it. We have been doing school while listening to Christmas music. I am hoping to have "Christmas" (as Tripp calls anything decorated for Christmas) up around the house by the end of the weekend. Now if only we could get a week of snow the week before Christmas, that would be AWESOME!!

Thankfulness

Today is a day to give thanks and all though I have so much to be thankful for I thought I would give you my short list.

**I am thankful for my friends who are more like family.

**I am thankful for my family and especially my kids.

**I am thankful for having this time with them while they are learning along side of me.

**Most importantly I am thankful to know the Good News of The Lord Jesus Christ, who died on the cross a sinless man so that my sins would be forgiven....That's pretty HUGE
