Lots of fun stuff...

First off...these arrived from Alaska yesterday!!
.

I consider myself lucky for even getting them in my hands, since it was a neighbor who lives a block away who rang my doorbell and told me that my box was sitting in the middle of the street. Huh? What kind of people are working for the USPS? I was so mad that I wrote them an email and demanded an explanation. HA. I doubt I'll hear anything. Anyway...these gorgeous trees are from HOLLY. I won them on her blog. I consider myself very lucky, as these are hand made and hand sewn. She didn't even use a sewing machine. WOW! Thank you again, Holly!!
.
Yesterday we went to the Steven Stoli Backyard Theatre to see Santa's Holiday Surprise. It was cute. Lauren was brave enough to get a picture with Santa after the show. The other one...well, she was having a bad day. I think it was lack of sleep for her, cause last night she fell asleep on her bedroom floor at 5:30 pm...and slept until 8 am this morning. THAT IS VERY RARE! I don't think she's ever slept for more than 10 hours.

Friday night I was able to sneak away to 911 for some scrap time with Dawn and Stephanie. It was fun to hang out with those girls, since I haven't seen them since they had their babies (6+ months ago). Only got a few things done. Here's a few...

I'm currently working on a Christmas banner. It's still in the works, but I'll show you what I have so far!! It's going to be sparkly.

How about these gorgeous flowers? I received these from the Pat Morelli family. THANK YOU SO MUCH!! I couldn't believe it when the van drove up to our house (we were outside when he was driving aimlessly). I even asked him if he was sure that he had the correct house!

.
And finally I convinced Bella to let me put her bangs up. They are now long enough for me to pull them back in a ponytail. She looks so cute with her hair off of her face, don't you think? But since I've put them up and taken this picture...she's already pulled the pony out :-( I won't give up, tho!

Enjoy your Sunday...gotta finish putting the tree up. We're a little behind around here. Ciao!

OMG! That "Baby It's Cold" LO is absolutely on of my all-time faves ever, ever, ever! Love it! And, your banner looks so sparkly and pretty...can't wait to see the finished product. :0) And, in reference to your little one passing out on the floor...lucky lady. Mine would never just lie down to sleep on her own. Ever. And, she wouldn't fall asleep on the floor if I duct-taped her to it! ;0) Again, glad you got your trees, and I hope you enjoy them!
