In which I update my readers on various random happenings

I just thought I'd share a few pictures from the last few weeks highlighting our happenings.  Now or never, say I=)

 

Here goes! 

 

For a few years now, we have taken a picture in this same position, in this same setting, and I think it is now an established tradition, which started quite by accident=)  It's so neat to be able to see how much we've changed over the years!

(You will notice the two girls on the end are always matching by a seeming miracle.  Some things never change;)

 

 

The President, Vice-President, and Charter Member of The-Thing-That's-In-The-Closet - otherwise known as the Big Girl's Club=)

 

All the girls

 

A lovely shot of the non-tribal hairstyle=)  (It was at this juncture that Aubrey said I looked like I could send heretics to the stake without compunction:)

 

Fun with Photo Booth;)

 

I had a lot of fun working on these shepherdess dishtowels for a custom order -

 

As well as a new line of country girl dishtowels=)

 

We were able to visit G.G. (our great grandma) this week.  She lives in town, so we don't see her a often as we used to.  

She is such an amazing person!  She and her family - she was the oldest of 17 - lived in London during the air raids of W.W.ll.  G.G always has a story or two to tell us!

 

And, last but not least, today the girls and I got out a wool felting kit we were given awhile back, and I made this darling old couple=)  

I am entranced with wool felting... it is so much fun!!  Well, that is, when the needle pokes the wool, and not my finger;)

 

My sweet helper, donning a lovely coating of apricot jam=)

 

I have been working hard on my online shop, and I hope to see you there soon!  I received my business cards in the mail the other day, which was very exciting:)

 

May you all have a very blessed new year!
