The Crafting Queen!

Ok, so the title doesn't really fit but oh well! For those of you that know me, I'm not what you'd call a patient crafter. Sure, crafting is super fun, but I get so impatient that my crafts often end up sloppy, if done at all. Thats why I wanted to post about my latest craft. I put alot of time into it and was extra patient so it would be good. It's a present for my mother-in-law so don't tell her until I send it, ok?

Ok so this is a latch-hook pillow totally made from scratch. Believe it or not, latch hooks take a LONG time to finish! Then, I made the back and stuffed it with a home-made pillow. Hopefully she'll like it! Kudos to me for actually finishing a GOOD craft!

Christmas 2008

For Christmas this year, we decided to stay here in Arizona. It was a good idea because we got to spend alot of time with friends and by ourselves. We had a dinner at our house on Christmas Eve and even got to help play Santa with our friends Melissa & Charlie.

I also included some pictures of Trixie that Kirk and I took on Christmas Day. We were bored all afternoon so we watched Trixie play with the laser light. She got so worn out that her tongue started hanging out of her mouth! It was hilarious! We couldn't stop laughing!

Hope everyone had a jolly Christmas season! :)
