MICKEY MOUSE

Merry Christmas

snow angel

Not quite but Emily did make an angel craft at the Y and it did snow. Elijah opted not to go out bc it was raining and there really wasn't enough snow to do much with.

slacking off

Elijah did his Nutcracker dance this week. He was great but I am amazed at the way some people let their children behave.

Happy Kids

Emily's tangleded dress and Elijah's Peka Peka hoody.

looking a bit like Christmas

We finally got the Christmas tree up this weekend. I'm not much into decorating for Christmas but the kids had fun decorating the tree and Emily wants us to turn it off any time she sees it off. Its getting a little more Charlie Brownish each year but in a strange way its grown on me. We bought it when Elijah was little and Martha Stewart had just gone to prison causing Kmart to put all of her products on sale.

The other picture is her finished Tangled dress. Haven't let her try it on yet so no action pictures.

sewing and glasses

Neil got new glasses. He was due for new ones anyways but about a week ago he picked his up after a shower and the bridge snapped. He decided to try sturdier frames like Elijah and I this time.

I got Emily's Minnie dress and bathrobe finished. The little bugger won't wear the robe and isn't allowed to wear the dress till Disney. Its a little big but will have a shirt under it so should be fine and fit for a while.

A Christmas preview for Angela.

I took Emily to JoAnns with me this week. She asked me to make her a "tangleded" dress. Really how do you say no to a 3 year old holding a bolt of satin as big as they are. Plus I really liked the dress in the movie and sometimes is fun to be really creative. Hopefully I'll finish it tonight. I think she's going to wear it when we eat in the castle.
