after a looonnngg dry spell...




I finally got back to my blog. I had some migraine issues and then finals for college but now that is all behind. On to the new season and the pictures I promised. The first picture is of our Jesse tree. I plan to make a set of ornaments for each of the children starting in the new year. I will be a large undertaking but an important one for me personally. The next couple pictures are of the organizing ideas that I promised.
The weather was horrible today with lots of freezing rain so we made cookies and I am planning to set down tonight and work on our annual cookie list. I also want to work on some knitting. I finished Hannah's fingerless gloves and I want to finish Noah's hat. The grand babies' sweater is underway and I would like to start one more project.
We are officially on Christmas break for 2 whole weeks and I have so much that I want to do but we shall see what God has me accomplish.

  1. Migraines? Me too. I finally realized after three days that it was gone today. FINALLY.

    I don't know what a Jesse Tree is. Am I deprived?

  2. Oh Tara, you are soooo deprived. I just can't believe you do not know what a Jesse tree is!!!
    Seriously though, google it and you will get the drift. We started the tradition years ago and the children look forward to it each year. I plan on making a set of the ornaments myself but I did purchase a beautiful hand made set a couple years ago. I want to give a set to each child as they start their own family.
    As for migraines.... I have several issues that set them off!
