Christmas Craft Day


This past Sunday we had Christmas craft day as a family.  Tori and I spent most of the day making snowman chair covers, which took forever!!! If I never cut another piece of felt it will be too soon!!! They did turn out super cute though.  Kim spent the entire day making a pom pom wreath, which she didn't quite finish, as you can see.  But when it is done, it will look super cute.  After Tor and I made the snowman chair covers, I decided to embark on another project... the reindeer wreath.  Suprisingly it didn't take very long and it turned out pretty good.  Matt spent the whole day making ravioli for Christmas eve!!! I can't wait to eat them...even though brains are in them ;0) Debbi and Tweedy did all the mixes, which is awesome cause those take forever!! Now your probably thinking to yourself, where was Dayton and Mike?!?! Mike was our runner, anything we forgot or needed at the store he happily went and got it.  As for Dayton, well he had quite the morning...he was preparing the house to get solar panels.  In the process of putting up sheetrock he hit the phone line with a nail and cause all the phones downstairs not to work!! Let's say he was a little pissed and after he fixed it he just wanted to sit and watch movies.  We actually got to watch three movies this year...  Home Alone, The Grinch (Jim Carrey version), and of course everyone's favorite... Love Actually!!! Oh and yes Mad Dog was there, but she was a grinch!!!

  2. Isn't that the fun of it?! We always have the positive "I can do it" attitude. This is the most fun day to spend with all of the kids-I'm so glad we started this tradition! I love you all! Debbi
