Playing a bit of catch up. Things begin to get busier around here the closer we get to Christmas. This is one of the ways that our life varies from most other peoples. For most people, as Christmas approaches they are able to slow down a bit. Christmas is one of the busier times in the hospitality industry. People like to travel over the Christmas holidays, so we are busy. And we are extremely thankful for that, but it does make keeping up with my pages a bit more challenging.



We have spent the last few days wrapping presents when the opportunity strikes. Thus the very empty tree now has lots of love underneath it.

Okay, this one is text heavy. I wanted to document my feelings on making these quilts so that they kids would have it later in life for prosperity. It may not amount to anything, but they mean a lot to me so I am pretty sure they will mean a lot to the kids. I will have to go back and make sure I didn't make any typos later. Too much to check right now.

It seems that December 12 was the day for writing to Santa Claus. Ali and her kids did the same :-) Tres and Boty both enjoyed writing Santa. Both of them felt it was important to include both words and pictures. I love that.

Simple layout today. We didn't get any photos of our activities for the day, but there was still a story to tell. So again, I went to the internet and found an image of the book we added to our Christmas library. It works for us. It is also a great way to document what was added and when for our family archives.

This is a special part of our Christmas celebration each year: handmade items. I think this is something ingrained in me. My grandmother made felt and sequin Christmas ornaments each year. She made a lot of Christmas ornaments. I have been the recipient of most of these ornaments in our family. They are very special to me. So, for our little family, I try to add something handmade to our Christmas celebration each year. One year it may only be the Christmas Pajamas that our kids wear proudly all year long. In 2008 at the last minute I tried to make a Christmas quilt. I didn't finish it. However, I did finish it for 2009. I also added the Christmas Pillowcases for the kids last year. I want them to have these memories for their childhood and then be able to take them along to their families and establish some kind of similar tradition for them.

Today was a good day. The advent calendar activity was to decorate the kids' rooms. Easy. I cut up some paper for them to make paper chains. They worked on the chains. I planned on finishing up the last of my handmade Christmas gifts, but no such luck. The kids were so taken with decorating that instead of decorating their room, they were ready to move onto the dining room. I had not expected to take on that project, but with their insistence I did. Today was a reminder that Christmas is all about them. Listening to that reminder was the right thing to do. I am glad we did.

No photos today that describe what we did, so I went to the internet and found a graphic off of the DVD case to add to the page. I like to do this for different music and movies we add to our collection each year.
