November 23

Don't forget to get your reservations for Breakfast with Santa..

Thanksgiving is now behind up and it's all about the big guy in the fancy red velvet outfit. Get your reservations for Breakfast with Santa before it's too late. Some locations are already sold out, so don't wait too long. You don't want coal in your stocking

We signed up for this hoping that the kids would enjoy the breakfast and the visit with Santa!
Sawyer was SO excited until Santa came in the room with his elves.. then he ducked his head under the table and would not look at him...

We finished eating our breakfast and the elves came around to the tables and made balloon animals and swords for the kids... then it was our turn to go up and sit on Santa's lap with their Christmas wishes and for us to get a PHOTO... Sawyer was glued to Eric and would not go NEAR him... so after peeling him off and sitting him on Santa's lap... these are the shots that I GOT! Lol

 Ashlee did tell him about her wish for a Microscope... (he told her he hoped she would be a Scientist some day)

                              At least the last Shot was almost a normal face! Marry Christmas!

My first crochet project!!

About a year or so ago I learned how to knit and I have been dabbling in different projects over the last few months.
I always come across the cutest crochet patterns. So I decided I need to try to learn to crochet.

I have been doing quite a few different dish cloth patterns but finally came across a flower headband pattern that I thought I could attempt...


Here is what I came up with!
