Happy Holidays to you ...
While Christmas day has passed, my family still has 2 more Christmas celebrations to go.
We've had 3 Christmas celebrations so far starting on Christmas Eve. After all of the celebrating is done on January 2, we'll wake up before the sun on January 3 and bid my Dad farewell.
He departs for Iraq Sunday ... and while I knew this day was coming ... it certainly crept up quickly. I've been avoiding the emotions of his departure. Here's hoping I can keep it together when he flies out.
His gift arrives tomorrow and I am very excited for him to see it.
I hope you all had a wonderful holiday and spent quality time with loved ones. I'll be back soon with creations to share ... but need some time to catch up from the hustle & bustle.
See you back here soon!
Wow, it seems so soon that he has to go. Make the most of the next few days! Happy New Year to all of you!

I'll miss you while you're away, but take this very necessary time to be with your family and to relax. Happy five Christmases and, of course, happy new year, too! Please let us know how your dad feels about his wonderful gift.

Kris, I hope your days with your family are terrific. I love the idea of the photo book. Let us know how your dad likes it. It will surely be a comfort for him while he is away.

I know your Dad will love his gift! Once he's gone, the days will fly by and he'll be home before you know it; you'll be busy with your job & your lovely family.........

I love the gift you created for your Dad and I am sure it will be one of his most treasured items he takes with him. May God bless and protect you and your family.

Absolutely charming snowmen . . . please keep us posted on your Dad. We all worry. Hugs, Auntie

I hope you enjoy your time with your dad.
Did you make the snowmen? I love snowmen.
If you made it could you tell me where to
buy a pattern for them. Thanks Michelle
