(This post is mostly for me...to remember my favorite Christmas yet, so apologies in advance if my family album bores you a little)
Making bell ornaments for the grandparents' trees...
that resembled the ones Mommy made when she was little...
Singing carols and giving hugs at the senior center:
Brushing Mommy with fairy dust makeup:
Stealing Santa's leftovers:
Christmas Day enchiladas (we don't budget calories during the holidays):
Sharing Christmas presents:
Enjoying Daddy's vacation:
Every aspiring ballerina should have a Daddy who appreciates the need to practice:
First candy canes:
Getting a princess lesson from Big Sis:
Letting Little Sis in on a secret---Mommy's jewelry box:
Walking Lessons with Sissy:
Visited by family...
...where secret pacts are made:
Chilling out over a candy cane and pink tree with sissy:
It was the best Christmas ever.
I know Christmas is well past but these pictures are just to sweet, so I had to say so. Enjoy them while their little, mine are 30, 27 & 23. They grow up so fast.

There was absolutely nothing boring about this post. Seeing the love in a family is priceless.
I just came to you through a blog called i create. She had a link to some tutorials. I love your work, in fact I have a purse in progress of the same Red Toile you used in one of yours.
Belated thank you to your dear husband for being willing to protect my freedom.
