Lee and I made this 11/09/13 at our church's Ladies Fellowship & Craft day. On the backside it says Merry Christmas. You'll have to wait until December to see that *wink*.
In our life we've been just keepin' on, keepin' on. I haven't been online very much which is just so strange to me. I am used to getting on here every morning and being on here for hours a day {sad, isn't it? lol}. I've been finding things to take me from the computer though and it's good. It's just different than I'm used to.
School is dragging, if I'm honest {which I generally am}. We've this week and next before Winter Break {of 5 weeks!}. We are actually behind in our schedule but must just keep at it or we won't get a Summer Break. Today it was still white out so the kids spent a good deal outside. Bumped school back a bit later into the evening than usual. I think we finally said "Enough!" at a little after 4pm.
I forgot to take photos of the napkins I'm almost done with. They are dual purpose; one side is fall themed and the other is Christmas themed. I originally wanted to make eight but ah, stopped at four. More reasonable and manageable. Besides they will only be used twice a year {if that}. Otherwise I've been making coaster tiles for our pastor's family for Christmas. I'm fairly certain they don't read my blog so I'm not giving it away. I hope :) And soon I plan on starting a little craft that I will put into stockings. Can't tell what that is because I think some of the recipients do read my blog.
I still have books on my 'to read' list that are sitting off to the side. A couple are due back to the library in a day or two. I've also been attempting {I keep telling myself that I am indeed attempting it} to read more of Charlotte Mason's Parents' Review Articles. I really need to finish reading at least Volume 6, which I've gotten the farthest of all the volumes.
Well it is time to get dinner made and on the table.
We are a little off schedule as well. Today we are starting a little later then normal. I wanted to find some fun winter art craft as it feels like winter. There is no snow outside for us right now. It is suppose to be in the 50s by Sunday. Which is odd for us this time of year. I have been in a crafting mood myself. I want to make some hand print gift for the god parents and grand parents from the kids. I love the snow and the leaf picture.
