Christmas party...

Oh I forgot it's Christmas party day...oh my...well if you notice there are Christmas pressies I've made...and if you scroll down there is a free tutorial for the holidays...and then lets sing

Jingle Bells...wohoo

Dashing through the snow
In a one horse open sleigh
O'er the fields we go
Laughing all the way
Bells on bob tails ring
Making spirits bright
What fun it is to laugh and sing
A sleighing song tonight

Oh, jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way
Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a one horse open sleigh
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way
Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a one horse open sleigh

A day or two ago
I thought I'd take a ride
And soon Miss Fanny Bright
Was seated by my side
The horse was lean and lank
Misfortune seemed his lot
We got into a drifted bank
And then we got upsot

Oh, jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way
Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a one horse open sleigh
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way
Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a one horse open sleigh yeah

Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way
Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a one horse open sleigh
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way
Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a one horse open sleigh

We went to Jeff's dad's Christmas party last night...we took Rhi and Scarlett...what fun...so I didn't have time to work on Shane/Shaybree's snowman...so after we took the girls home and we settled in I started working on it...this is a good thing since it gave it time to dry...teehee...I have a few more hours work on it and it will be finished...yipppeeee....

Snowman beginnings

Being a Gma or the Adventures of Sponge Bob

Well my granddaughters are 1 1/2 and 3 1/2 and they adore sponge bob....soooooooo being who I am...I decide that they needed a sponge plushie each (aw yes with their name on the back tehee)...not just any ol one but one the size of a bed pillow...this way they can snuggle up to him and watch him on DVD...so I thought you might like to share the experience or Adventure of Sponge Bob with me...gotta love being a Gma OH MY...teehee I have now downloaded pictures...had Jeff go to Walmart for the felts that I didn't have (isnt that always the way it is) and I have cut all parts out for the body...legs and arms will come later...that's the easy parts out....soooooooooooo here is the beginning....
