December really has went by in a flash! It seems like just yesterday I was thinking to myself,"I really should post the pictures from Thanksgiving.......", and we see that I still have not done that! We have been really busy! I love the holiday season and it is so much fun with sweet Annabelle, but I feel as if I can never get it all done! I have to take time each day to tell myself to slow down and just enjoy the season-but that is so easy to say and so hard to live! Today is the last day of school until next year. Most of you know that Brian and I both teach elementary school, so we get a great, well deserved two week break. I am very excited about spending time with family and friends. I have not even started shopping! I have so much to do and only 7 days to get it done(I have made a list-lets just hope all my ideas pan out)! I did get my Christmas cards out this year-Yeah! Last year I had to send New Years cards due to my procrastination. I am going to share some pictures of December and of Thanksgiving since I have failed to do so......
I want to take just a minute to admit-I AM A BLOG STALKER! I have a couple (just 3) of blogs that I check often-but no, I do not know these people! So that makes me a stalker! There is one blog in particular that teaches me so many cute ideas! This lady is super-woman! Not only does she have time to do all this stuff-but she also shares with the world! I love it! Thanks so much, Darby! She has taught me how to make eyelet socks, bows, appliqued shirts and her newest trick-labels! Summer and I decided that we would have a craft night once a month-since the hubby's have decided that they need to go camping once a month! Here is a picture of the shirt I made Annabelle using her tutorial for appliques. Summer also made Winsley a cute turkey shirt and some dish towels. The possibilities are endless!

I made these cute little pilgrim hats for Annabelle's friends at Mrs.Amanda's house and for the 1st grade feast. They were a hit with the kids and so easy!

A little Christmas cheer....
Our December "craft night" turned into a night out! We got a sitter and went out for a great dinner and some downtown fun! I always have such a great time with these gals! A randomn little Elf jumped in our picture! 
Annabelle went to a great cookie decorating party hosted by the Galimore's. She really enjoyed herself and has been asking for "cookties" ever since. Thanks Jenny for a great afternoon-you are such a fun and crafty mommy!I wish I had more pictures-BUT, I had my hands full!Annabelle in full concentration

Look at you, Miss Crafty Mama! I love your shirts!!! I made Parker a shirt with a P on it and it turned out ok, but not nearly as cute as yours! I am impressed!!!
