I did it! I finished all the ornaments for my kids, my nieces & my nephews!! I am so glad I am done! I need to finish putting the strings through them & do two more pictures but they are done!! I can finally move onto something else!!!

We put up a few Christmas decorations this weekend! I just cant seem to wait! I love this time of the year!!!! We have a busy weekend coming up too. We have Thanksgiving at our house with my husbands family & then on Sunday we have our baking day! Every year since I have been a little girl we all get together to make cookies. Theres usually about 17 of us, parents & kids that bake! We bake over 5 different kinds of cookies and usually end up with over 700 cookies! We freeze them and them divide them up on Thanksgiving for everyone to take home and enjoy! I cant wait!!!

Time is flying! I cant believe its the second week of November already! This is my favorite time of year so it needs to slow down so I can enjoy it!!!! I already have my Christmas mugs out & the kids wanted to put their Christmas trees in their rooms so we did that this past weekend. I am ready to put more stuff out!!! I have been listening to Christmas music for a week now!! I have one more ornament to go then they are all finished for my nieces & nephews for this year! I will post them when I am done.

I did finish a covered bridge for my grandma. She loves covered bridges!! I have also been knitting fingerless gloves for gifts. These have been going pretty fast!

Victoria made a traveling volleyball team & Jacob made a traveling basketball team so we are off and running again!! Now we have volleyball, softball pitching lessons, softball, basketball & baseball practices!! I will never see my house again!! I love watching the kids play, I just wish we didnt have all the practices!!!

Time to stitch!! Have a great day!!
