Next...

I've taken some time off to be able to be with family and friends and it has been wonderful.
Lou and I had lots of hours with the grandbabies.  We've actually taken sometime to relax, which is hard to do when you work in your own backyard.
Tomorrow will be the first time I've been in the studio for almost two weeks. 


Hoping that the New Year 2013 will be a Wonderful 365 Days.
Happy New Year Friends!

Memories of Christmas Past

I'm thinking this must have been taken in 1959.  My baby sister Jan looks to be less than a year old and she was born in February of '59.  Lovin' my brother John's red shoes.  I am lucky to still have my Mom.  Remembering the wonderful times we had and I will always miss my Dad who we lost 19 years ago.

A Good Day

Spent the day with these cuties...a visit to Santa,
neither wanted to sit on the jolly old soul's lap...so no pictures.
Checked in with Mickey at the Disney Store and then had some lunch.

Lou and I are exhausted...a reminder of why God gives you children when you're young.

Relaxing in the light of the tree and counting our blessings.

Christmas Twinkles



The last of the orders were mailed out on Monday.  We need to thank our wonderful customers for all the support you've shown our little Workshop. The past 4 weeks have been busy, busy, busy around here and now we need to get ready for the holidays.

Yesterday Lou and I went out and found our tree for this Christmas...It's set up and I'm almost finished decorating it...just a few more ornaments and it will be completed.  Today Lou will be putting up  some twinkles on the outside and I'll be doing the same on the inside. Hopefully we can sit in the glow of our lovely Christmas tree this evening and think about the true meaning of Christmas.
