12-22 Another Day of our Life



We wanted to find little rubber duckies
but ended up with frogs instead ...

One for each Spa Basket.

They went well with the box of
frog soaps that I found when we pulled
out our soap stuff.




We also got each of them a pen.

For the fun of it.




These 4 go to the Grubs and Bali.




Shi's and Miya's.








Gifts stacked up.

Some of these were removed and taken to the Papa party.




Kendra was still making necklaces.






And then somebody dropped off a large bag
of gifts at Rhoda's church for us.

We don't know who.

Rhoda was given a name,
but it wasn't one she recognized
and the phone is fuzzy so she wasn't sure
if she heard right.

Packages were marked "from Jesus".

Totally unexpected.
Total blessing.




So Kendra "hung us a tree".

There still wasn't room for a proper one,
but I hadn't cut up the garland yet.

A project that Mom helped me get the parts for 4 years ago.




Some more of Joel's elf work.





LaRue LOVES my water bottle.

Then she was giggling and realized it made an echo.

And she sang and giggled and talked ...

and then I washed my water bottle.






After all, she was also eating cheerios.




Finally, about 11pm,
she decided that she was going to help
Joel with his projects.

I let her play with it all
for nearly an hour.




And took care of some thing I needed to get done
but it's not easy with a baby on your lap!

Dec. 13 - More Christmas Projects



Esther




Aunt Cindy






Jade






Bali




Malinda




Anthony - we had to add the cross




Joshua




Marriana.




Joel made a TON of necklaces for his cousins.










One bell was for Jade

the other for Allison R.






Kendra made necklaces too.


Ironically - so did Aunt Ruth and her girls.




LaRue singing Christmas songs on her
"Microphone"

which she gave the other end to Bethie.

Can you tell what she was using?

Absolutely LOVE this dress/shirt on her.

Aunt Cindy gave it to her last year as a dress.
It was cool enough to wear much of the summer with shorts

And now she is still wearing it as a shirt.

Dec. 13 - Tie Dye 3




A matching Granddaughter
Grandma set
for my cousin.






A second Grandma/Grand daughter set






And this was a Mommy / Daughter set.


Those were Violet ... and we added purple and found they were 2 very different colors.






Marriana




Michelle




Avs




Christopher




LaRue




Kendra




and Kendra's T-shirt




Shi's.

We added the pink after we unwrapped it and found the pink hadn't
sunk in enough.




Avs

We added the squirt to one side.

We liked the way it looked after.




Joel.

But almost all of the yellow washed out of these two.




Mary




Matthew L.

I think.




Anthony's

Before we unwrapped it.

and below is AFTER!




I loved this one as well.



Would LOVE to do this project this summer as a family fun event.
Maybe at the kids birthday party?


Maybe if Tim is working again - we'd be able to afford a big package of socks or something for the kids.
