Good morning Cuties! Yesterday was craft day with the kids and here are the snowflakes they made. When I said, “ Are y’all ready to make something?” Nora and Rylan we all for it, but Gus didn’t want to participate, even after I told him what we’d be making.

Dad had brought the kids earlier all but Eva, she opted to sleep in. He had to pick mom from the bus service because she had to bring her school bus in for check up over the holidays. On the way back they dropped in and when I jokingly told mom they could just take Gus back home because it wouldn’t participate, she laid the guilt trip on him. Nora had just finished her first one when mom and dad got here and had given it to mom. Mom told Gus she would just have one beautiful snowflake on their tree because he wouldn’t make one. Well he immediately wanted to make his but I told him as it was lunchtime soon, he now would have to wait.
So here are all the kids with their snowflakes. Gus’s was cut different and out of a heavier paper, but white.
Rylan and Nora’s first one are the same paper and theirs are cut the same. Nora’s second white is of fabric, as is the blue two tone I made with Nora, while the boys played with the Lincoln logs.
We had a good day overall. When Rylan’s family came to pick him up, mom just gushed over his snowflake and Rylan just beamed. It made my heart feel good for him.
It ended with another job for me. Taylor bought a Carhart jacket for me to embroider for her dad’s Christmas present. Christmas is this Sunday, 5 days away! We had to look online for a design of an old car. Her dad is restoring a 1935 Plymouth sedan, not a coupe. The closest design we found was a 1929 that looked similar. She bought the design before they left and I added the lettering so she could see if that’s what she liked. So now I have ANOTHER project to finish before Sunday. Does it ever end? I halfway jokingly said, “Do you want it next year?” She said she guess New Years would be good. I left it like that because I kinda wanted her to see, that this close to Christmas, is very late to bring something like this for me to embroider. You know me though, this will be my day today. Without a problem, I should get it done. Hopefully it will go well and if it does I’ll add to Projects page. So the stories continue…..
