Thanksgiving Spread

This is our Thanksgiving Feast! We also have rolls and an Emerald Salad, but they are not pictured.
Our Turkey turned out sooooooo moist! It was delicious.

If you double click on the picture it will enlarge and you'll be able to see how moist it is!


Candied Yams.

Family Pictures

Marianne came over and photographed the family last night! Here are a few of the 90 pictures we got! We are doing a fun picture this year, but you have to wait to see that one! We just love the pillow fight pics!

Stamping

The girls were stamping today, can you tell?

Hooded towels

Today I decided to organize my dining/temporary sewing room. I figured the best way to do this is to use up some of the fabric and supplies that are just sitting there. I opted to start with the hooded towels I started many, many years ago. It was probably 4-5 years ago! It took me all of 15 minutes to sew 4 of them! For instructions click here. All you need is one bath towel and one hand towel. One hand towel will make 2 hoods, so you may as well get another bath towel and make two. Here is one of the towels:


Both pictures are of the same towel- not sure why the color is so different! I put the hood on a little different than how it is in the instructions. I made two this way, and two the way in the instructions.

The Faces of Natalie

Here is Natalie's slideshow!

Ashley's many faces

If I make a slideshow of Alona, of course I have to do one for Ashley and Natalie as well. So here is Ashley's!

Christmas gift ideas.......

I am looking for ideas for Christmas gifts that I can make. Anyone have any suggestions?
I would like them to be fairly quick and easy, yet classy and well received!
Thanks!
Oh, yes, and they would be for friends and family (adults- both male and female)!
