Happy New Year!

As you can see we've added a new member to our family.

Such a cutie and the biggest cheeks we've ever seen.

Here is one of her "big" sisters. I can tell she's going to be a big help

to Daddy!

 

Mom is doing well also. Fortunately Miss Viv is quite

the snuggler.

 

I haven't been around much because my sewing machine was taking

up all my time.

The girls all got 18" dolls for Christmas so I had to get

busy sewing up clothes for them.

Winter Capes were my patterns of choice as well as hats

to go with them.

I was at the Dollar Store at one point and found these cute little

bags that were intended for "gift cards" and thought they would be

perfect as a purse for the dolls.

Once I got going I also decided to add a little "bling" to their

outfits.

I think they were a hit.

Since I had made the red corduroy skirts for the older girls I thought

the dolls should also have them and decided to

add the blouses.

The party dress goes with the red cape.

 

 

 

 

 

Christmas is splitting time between both families. So Hubby and I spent the night at daughter & son-in-laws and were able to see the little ones

open their presents in the morning.

Actually the best part was the kids jumping into bed with us to tell us

Santa had come!!!!

And that he did......son-in-law made this beautiful dress-up rack

for the Princess of the house! She loved it! 

 

 



The next big hit was the air hockey table!

The game is on between the Princess and the Jock!

Gotta love Christmas !

The rest of the day was spent with the kids in Ma. and unfortunately

I never got around to taking pictures.

The kids took up most of our time.

 

My thoughts and prayers go out to my "friends" that are battling health

problems and to those caring for them.

I hope that 2014 brings health and happiness to you.

 

p.s.....I did complete Father Christmas (my last hooking project)

but for some reason I can't seem to get  it uploaded here.

Will try again later.

 

Till we meet again.................

A bientot!

 

and I look forward to your "comments.
