Merry Christmas!

I hope you had a very Merry Christmas! I sit here with my tummy stuffed with all kinds of things that are bad for me...but BOY were they YUMMY! ;) We had a peaceful day at my parents' with them, my aunt, uncle, cousin and grandma. Instead of everyone buying presents for each other, we do a "white elephant" exchange. Although we don't do the typical "white elephants" with a bunch of bad presents though. That was how we start some years ago, but with these being the only presents the adults exchange (except for my grandma), it has become gifts that are inexpensive but still nice. The rest of the day was spent eatting, playing Wii video games and just chatting. Since I don't seem to be able to just sit and not be working on SOMETHING...I also made up some more of the ornaments my mom and I have been working on. And as I promises, here is what some of them look like They are made of a 3" styrofoam ball, material, straight pins, ricrac (or some other trim material) and ribbon. I will try to get a little instruction sheet with pictures made up by the end of the week to share for anyone interested in them. They are pretty simple to make, but to take around 2 hours to finish (depending on how quick are). They were a huge hit with everyone we shared them with this year.
