Christmas Begins.....
This weekend we had our Christmas with Scott and Nancy and the grandkids.
These are little snowmen salt and pepper shakers Nancy gave me. Too cute!
Olivia made these wonderful lavender dryer bags totally by herself! Now I am the only one who can't sew worth a stitch in this family!
Nancy spent hours and hours embroidering this Christmas! Here is just a small part of the elaborate art work on a pillow case for Darrell. Notice the missing thumb!
These are a set of 6 Christmas napkins she created for me. Retro and so pretty!

Micaela found these treasures for us at a second hand store!
Inside the mugs sit quaint lighthouses! You'd have to remember the Old MacDonald farm cups I have with farm animals in them to fully appreciate this gift! I have made hot cocoa in those mugs for the grandkids over the years.
It is always so good to have the family visit! Missing from this year's gathering were Scott A and Bethany L, as they are spending some time on the other side of the mountains with her family for the holidays.
