Marry Christmas to All and to All a Big Snowball...

I hope you all had a very Marry Christmas.We were going to spend Christmas morning at our daugther and son-in-law's house.Because it was going to snow we when last night and it was a good thing we did.About a hour after we got there it started to snow.
Here is Ryan playing the fiddle we got him.Papaw is giving him pointers on how to play.It is so much fun having a little one around again and by next year we will have one more little one to play with.Amber and Jay are having a baby in Aug. and I am so happy.

Here is what it looked like out the back door this morning.

Live Deeply and Marry Christmas,

War Eagle Craft Fair Fall 2009 is Over....

Will I did live through War Eagle Craft Fair again this year.It was a bit cold, but the rain stopped and all we had was some mud the first two days.Sorry I did not get any posting done as the show was going on but I could not get my pics to upload. This is one of the driftwood men I made this year.Adam really liked this one.

You can see part of my booth here.

I made a lot more stuff than I thought I did.As I started taking things out of the boxes I could not believe it.

These two are the view from my booth.This was Sat.and it was a bit cold.

All in all it was a good show and now I am looking for a show to do in Dec.

Live Deeply and go to a craft show.
