Wrapping is Done!!!

Cori and I finished wrapping gifts at 2:30 this morning....I'm so
glad that we have completed that chore. Of course many of the
wrapped items were for a bingo game that we have planned.
Here you can see Cori modeling some of our raw materials.

Happy Christmas Eve everyone!!!! :)

The Puzzle is now Complete!!!

Thanksgiving day this puzzle was started and just recently was

completed thanks to Cori... Mom started the puzzle with me that

afternoon and many worked on it that evening before we ate

supper, we just didn't have enough time to get it done. I thought

it was so pretty it deserved a picture :) I guess I like it so well

because the puzzle brings to mind springtime which is very,

very far away!!! sigh....
