This Year


Where has it gone to? Yes just like every
year there are the same number of days, 
but the days seemed to go by far too quickly!!
I am actually ready for 2014
We will have a new grandbaby in February 
And I am excited about that

Wanted to share with you a Sweet, well ok 
Cute but unhappy photo of Miss Vada and 
Mr Oliver visiting with Santa Claus


This is the only one they shared with Oliver


Vada apparently warmed up to him a little

I have not been online much
my Mother fell on the ice on December the 8th
and crushed her elbow, on Christmas Eve she had
surgery and they put a steel plate in her arm
She is doing ok, but is so limited to what she can do
for herself, We brought her home with us to take care of her
so Yes I am behind on updating my blog, behind on lots of things
but fear not I am getting caught up and will still be sewing

I was in a Secret Santa Swap we had between some 
of the members of the 

My Secret Santa was Karen of


Such wonderful gifts, a Box full


I have to share a close up of the needle punched Snowman
ornament, I would love to learn this, if only I could find 
some spare time!! I am still searching for that, maybe I 
will find it in 2014? Spare time is not something I seem to 
ever have 

Right before Christmas I won a Giveaway 
I won the Red Snowman Ornament
Cynthia is a member of the Folkart and Primitives etsy team


She was having a wonderful sell in her 
Etsy Shop so I treated myself to some goodies for Christmas

The details are wonderful, I seldom purchase anything
other then items related to supplies to create with

I am probably not making much sense today with this post
but felt I was neglecting my blog
I feel like I could sleep until 2014 *sigh*
Hope you all had a Wonderful Christmas
I will post a giveaway in a couple of days

    I agree this year pasted to quickly ~ I know I didn't accomplish everything I wanted to and couldn't find the time to keep up with everyone in blog land.
    Love all the wonderful creative goodies!!! I took a class on punch needle and it is much easier than it looks ~ you should give it a try ~ I'm sure you will like it and once you start it ~ it goes fast!
    Hope your Mom heals up fast ~ sending prayers for her.
    Brenda ~ I Hope you have a Wonderful New Year and you accomplish all your goals!

  12. That little snowman ornament is so cute. When you learn how to do that would you post a link to it! I've seen more of that lately and would love to give it a try.

    Your Mom needs lots of rest so maybe naps all around are fitting at your house now.

  13. Brenda, the Santa in the first picture looks like he is crying a little too. Sweet little ones and how nice are all those new things. I am so sorry your Mom took a tumble, it must have been very painful. I know she is so thankful to have you to care for her. Happy New Year to you all.
