Christmas is here!

Merry Christmas to all my wonderful blog readers! 
I hope you have a few moments today to catch your breath and enjoy some stitching and/or blog reading. I find the holidays to be quite frantic most of the time, but much less so now that my kids are older. The biggest change is that they sleep in on Christmas morning so I have time to get a nice breakfast ready, read my quilting blogs, and get the food organized for the day. 

Granddog Max has been getting in trouble trying to open the gifts under the tree. He was sneaking right in between the presents and slowly ripping off the paper.
Eventually all the gifts had to be removed from under the tree and put on the dining room table!
Today he will be in his height of glory... it's his favourite day and he loves opening presents.

Don't we all!?!?
Here is a lovely gift I received from Jacquelynne Steeves thanking me for participating in her Happy Little Things BOM! So fun!

I enjoyed making a few gifts for friends and family this season, and will write more about the projects once those gifts have been received.
I wish you a wonderful Christmas and hope you enjoy all the sights, sounds, and treats of the season!

Merry Christmas! My holidays aren't as frantic as they used to be too. Some of it is due to life changes, kids growing up, and I also cut down on what I used to do. It is more joyful for me to do less rather than more.

Merry Christmas Kathy. We celebrated on Christmas Eve with my daughter (who gave me a wool pressing mat) and all the other adult children live in FL ans TX, so I get to spend today finishing clue 4 of Frolic. Hope Max enjoyed his package opening.
