Christmas is coming.

The hubby out ready to shovel our snow!!

The weather outside was fightful. Friday we got 15+ inches of snow. That and having the first snow day from work in the 8+ years I've worked there has put me in the Holiday spirit. The above photo is the Christmasy part of my next donation to the Preemie project. Now that those items are finished I can concentrate on the Christmas presents I need to work on. I got a compliment from my father yesterday. I made him a pair of boot socks for his birthday back in August. Everyone looked at me thinking why warm socks in August. Well dad put them to work on friday plowing out his driveway, he said they are VERY WARM..He had previously used them for slipper socks around the house. He found out just how warm they were on Saturday when he wore a different pair of socks and his feet froze. He thanked me for the wonderful present from his crafty daughter. My sister is the shopper of the family. She puts equal amount of thought in her purchased gifts. My hubby wants a pair and for me to make his father a pair. My father in law is adjusting to the colder weather since moving back north from Kentucky. Off to work on the gifts!!
