We LOVE Christmas Eve's EVE activities...

It has been a busy day getting everything finished up.

Besides wrapping I think we are all set!!!

**********************

I have been looking for YEARS for the perfect nativity...

I have yet to get one.

Each year I look and look for the perfect one...

This year I have found it...but at only one store that is sold out and doesn't give any info on it to find it elsewhere...frustrating!

Here it is if there is anyone SAVVY enough out there to find it for me.
It is the 16th one down on that page...anyway...

So Madi knew how bad I wanted one...badly...

So she made this for me...

I thought it was so sweet of her.

She knew I was looking for one...and she made this beautiful one for me!

How sweet is she!
Thanks so much Bell for being so thoughtful!

And Cassi was out in the garage helping Dad wrap up some last minute gifts...
And she made this clock for me.
Isn't it so sweet...she put the nails in herself and I think it turned out so cute!
Thanks Cass!

And last, but not least...for about five years I have been wanting to make new stockings...
I always ran out of time...
So this year I was determined!
Piece by piece I have been putting them together...and finally today got them all done...well kinda...I still need to put a little hanger thing at the top...but that should be easy enough!
Anyway, I love how they turned out!!!
I sewed the diagonal lines for the boys but for the girls I stippled them...I am happy with them and so excited that I finally got around to getting them done!
