Home Made Christmas Presents

This year with a tight wallet I decided to make the kids home made Christmas presents. I was going to do allot of different things but our family received and over whelming amount of help this Christmas that only one was necessary. First I made Jedrek a Sock monkey!

When I was all done with that project I made Corben a sock elephant.

Alex wanted me to make him a color pencil roll up like his brother got from his aunt for his birthday but I found a cool pattern that hold color pencils and a small drawing pad.Can't forget Grandma & Grandpa! I made them a shirt with the kids hand prints on them. Instead of the same old panted hands I cut out the kids hands and taped them on to the shirt and sprayed it with bleach water. I love the effect and it good to know that the hand print won't come off after excessive washings! I have to give a BIG THANK YOU to my AWESOME sister in law who helped me embroider the wording on the shirts!I had a ton of fun doing all my projects and look forward to making more bleach water shirts!

Christmas

I'm getting excited for Christmas! I've made a few things for my family since we do not have any extra cash and I can't wait till I can post them! See ya in a few more days!

Oh on another note I have a few cute little kids say the darndest things.
Awhile back we had an incident and we were trying to figure out exactly what happened and the explanation was I didn't kick him his head just hit my foot.
Nice huh!

Corben's teacher related this to me. She was having the student that was in charge of finding out the weather look outside to see what it was and as they were coming back a little voice suddenly started to sing "I can see clearly now the rain is gone."
He is so silly like that all the time. I thought I would share a few cute little things since it has been awhile since I last posted anything, I have a bit to do it's just getting on the right computer so I can post the picture for it!

Till after Christmas!

More Pict's from our Midnight Party!

So my good friend Audra was smart and brought her camra. Here is a link to her blog about our fun night!

Last friday night!

We wanted to go camping but we have to save all our money since Jed is still out of work, so we decided to finally use our fire pit that we have in our back yard, and then the boys slept in the tent in the back yard! Here are the pictures I took on my phone! Enjoy!

All Things Twilight!

Last night Me and 9 other Twilight freaks decided that sleep was overrated and decided to go wait in line and watch the midnight showing of Twilight! I loved it! It was wonderful, I can't wait to see it again! There are a few diffrences but it all worked great to keep the story almost perfect! I highly recomend it! Check out these pics I took of the movie!

Edwards first wiff of Bella!

Sunflowers

Corn and I'm not sure what else, maybe peppers?

Zucchini I believe Just for Rebecca!
