Merry Early Christmas To ME!!!!!

First of all, let me start of by saying..... I HAVE THE BEST STITCHING FRIENDS IN THE WORLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This bag is from my friend, Twig. It has SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO many pockets in it, I think I counted 19 of them! And each pocket had a little surprise in it- patterns, floss, fabric, nosew glue, lipgloss, perfume, shower gel, shimmery powder, a fridge magnet, a cute hanging plate, a Hob Nobb kit, some pink pencils.... I think I remembered everything that was in it. I have been looking at this bag forever at Hobby Lobby!!!!!!

This one is from my friend, Loretta, in Canada. I didn't have any idea this one was coming from, so holy cow was I surprised!!! It had the BEST stuff in it too! A Hob Nobb kit that I've been wanting, Dogs Love You No Matter What!, with all the floss & fabby to stitch it. A cookbook, some bubblegum floss from The Gentle Art, some "E" notecards, & a snowman ornament.

I'm not sure what I did to deserve all of these Christmas goodies?! I have some of the most wonderful friends in the world! I AM IN STITCHING HEAVEN!!!!!

Iowa's First Winter Storm

It is a winter wonderland!!!!! This is what I woke up to this morning. The first picture is the view out of my living room window, south of town, you can't see the road leading out of town. The second picture is my Christmas tree that is outside.

Molly + The Pig = LOVE

Molly, hugging her pig, isn't she sweet?!

Winterology

Here are two of the five from Winterology. I just have to add some snowflakes to them, but instead of stitching them, I decided to use buttons.

Here are the next two that I just finished. One more to go!

Here is the last one!

Baby meets Santa

Our vet clinic had a Christmas open house this afternoon. I took Baby Macy over to meet Santa. Here are a few pictures I took. She looks like she's trying to get away from him by the end, she'd had enough of Santa, I guess.

The last Winter Crazy

Here is the last one of Winter Crazy, by Lizzie Kate that I'm going to do. There is one more but I'm skipping it for right now.

Dogs are picky too!

So I went to the bathroom to check & see how much food the dogs had in their dish..... this is what I found.... just the FISH pieces of food. They have dug out all the other pieces & ate them but left these. They must not taste as good!
