Merry December!!!

I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving. We did although we spent two days on the road it was worth it to see our families. The food was great at both houses and I brought home some leftovers from my sisters so I was able to enjoy it the next day. Yummy…her turkey was soooo good this year…

While in the one town where my Dh’s brother lives I stopped at the LSS and browses for a bit..Picked up some gorgeous deep blue paper..and this new knife…

as you can see you fit it over your forefinger..so far I love it! I used it today on several things and it worked great. I have to give credit to my Dh for finding it for me though. I had already looked over it…Okay…I’ll take back what I was thinking when he went in with me…LOL

Since I did allot of housework yesterday I got busy with some Christmas crafts today..I have a 12 days of Christmas swap do this week. We were given a partner to get to know through e-mails for 4 months and then buy 6 small things, some chocolate and some socks..I have everything bought almost except for the chocolate. I figured she has a better chance of getting it if I leave in the store for as long as I can. Then we need to make 6 things…of course I put it off. I had so many ideas of what to make just couldn’t make up my mind. I can’t show them here yet..cause she might be peaking..but I will take pictures and show them after we open..one each day the 12 days before Christmas. I hope she likes everything I send her. I always enjoying doing these swaps and buying for other people. I’m in a couple of other swaps too…and I’ll post more about them once we send out our gifts. They are also secrets…I am not good at keep secrets like this…so it’s been hard on me. If you tell me something and tell me not to tell anyone I will do it but when it’s for fun and gifts are involved then I want to sing like a canary…

It’s going to be a busy month and I hope I can get on here more than I did last month but if I don’t then please take some time to enjoy the season and don’t let it get you all stressed out. In the end as every year it will all work out. Sooo…have a Merry December! Thanks for coming!
