Gifts....

 This is the entrance fence at the park.  I like it. The city decorates our park with donated decorations. Some little meanies tear them down. Kids get a job. Or go home and get to bed. :):)
 This is some of the things Emma made last year for Christmas while she stayed with me. Popcicle sticks and clothes pin deer. Just some red pompoms , googlie eyes,and a ribbon to hang them.
  We used some fleece to make neck scarves also. This is the one Emma made for her mom.
So easy, no sewing. The fleece doesn't fray. You just cut a long strip and cut some fringe pieces at the ends.  Everyone who got a scarf loved it. It's nothing for going on the town, but good for everyday.
 I have missed having Emma over. She goes to her other grandmother's house....because a girl in her class lives right next door. They are friends, so she would rather play with classmates at times.  I will get to have her over during their break from school. We will have to whip up some crafts.  Emma is really into drawing, so we may make some cards.  Or even a painting.
  Wishing everyone a great holiday time.  I will try to get a post out tomorrow.  Smile today, someone needs to see your happy face. XO

  10. Wow, very nice scarf. My granddaughter made me a fleece blanket with the pink cancer sign with the tied edges when I was going through my cancer journey in 2009.

    1. Wanda, My daughter Liz had breast cancer and I kept Emma lots during that time. I know it is a rough time. I did a lot of movie watching, story telling, drawing, and crafting with Emma. Blessings to you, xoxo,Susie
