I'm coveting these boots....

I found these boot in Ingledews around Christmas. They only had one pair of 37's in all of the lower mainland. No 38's or 39's :( I looked online - none. So if you come across a pair, call me! They are by Josef Seibel, Lexia I think they're called.

The Crafty Crow

The Crafty Crow

This is one of my favourite blogs to get craft ideas for the kids. I don't know how many fun things we have tried on here.

This is a little write-up about the blog that I got from the website:

The idea for this blog came out of my need to keep track of all the wonderful children's crafts I see on the internet. This collective specializes in crafts found on weblogs of creative people who either have, or work with, kids. You will also find tips, tools, resources, and other ideas sprinkled here and there over time. To help you in your search for just the right craft or activity, I've created an extensive category list.

Have fun!

WAY BACK WEDNESDAY

Looks like I was about two or three in this picture. It was at a Christmas party at the Roma Hall. I have no idea why or how I am up so high. I must be whispering in Santa's ear. I wonder what I asked for?

Bookmarks for Christmas

Everyone is getting a bookmark on their Christmas package this year. I'm going to have these printed at Costco on 12x12, Then I will cut them out, glue front to back and have them laminated. I'm not sure if I'll add a tassel or not. What do you think?

OMG

I have to put away my crochet stick and bring out my knitting sticks. These must be made before Christmas.....More Christmasy colours though.

From here: knitted ornaments

Christmas Traditions

Going to see Santa has always been a Christmas tradition for us. From the first time where

Santa dropped baby Graham, to last year when Graham was skeptical about the whole thing (he's still not sure!)

I love hanging out our pics to see how they have changed over the years. The kids love looking at them too. (Lindsay: Mamma, I don't remember being a baby, how come?)

We've had our "clothesline" since we re-did the kitchen three years ago. It's the best thing (Ikea). It usually changes by seasons or holidays and holds the kids art and photos. They love clipping their spelling tests or prized artwork on to there. For Christmas though, it is especially reserved for Santa pics.

Hoot! Hoot! I am back.............

Trying to make a commitment to journal for my family more often. Maybe even a Way Back Wednesday every now and then!
