So, I did not post anything in the last 4 weeks, and it’s not that I slaked and did not make anything, it is just that life is life, and I never got time to take pictures during the day to post nice ones. Well, I didn’t get a chance to take pictures during the day today either, but here is a post nonetheless.
Starting with the sweater I started 2 years ago! Yes, it is finished! Too big, but finished… I will probably re-open the sleeves to shorten them, and while I am not madely in love with it, it does a nice job at keeping me warm.
In our familly, we traditionally make our own Advent calendars. Frank and I have one, Gatien has one, and niw Eloise does too. I re-use little bags that my Mother had made years ago to create one for Bene and I, and use a embroyedery hoop as the structure. A glue gun, lots of ribbons, et voila!
Gatien’s birthday was this week, he received his aligator scarf, which I think he likes more holding then wearing around his neck. I am waiting to find it in his bed one of these days.
Yesderday we celebrated with a few of his friends. I made a mud and worms cake, and fishing poles for fun. They also got badges to complete activities.
I am going back to preparing a number of Chrismas presents, (I am late) so I’ll writte a longer post another time…
