CHRISTMAS WRAP-UP

Well, as usual I hardly took any pictures. Got too involved in just watching I guess. When I got to Nashville on the 18th, the grands opened their MS presents. They loved the sleeping bags I brought them. There was also a NASCAR race set for Avery and a really neat doll for Kates and I've forgotten what Vail got. I know -- how sad is that - I just can't think right now. Anyway, here is Avery opening one of her gifts.

My brother-in-law playing Grandpa. Hard to tell who is more relaxed :)


Ava with Toby. Those girls wore him plumb out! He was asleep before we got out of the driveway and didn't move til we were past Louisville - about 2 1/2 hours. He had a blast with teh kids though.




Pictures I could have gotten if I'd been picture oriented: Maddie the rottweiler chewing on a new bone each day by the back door from the dead deer she found out on the back 40 somewhere. We were greeted by a different bone each day including a skull!! Pics of all the gorgeously decorated homes and trees of each Neely family. The look on my sister's face when her hubby was washing the kitchen floor on Christmas morning with the carpet cleaner (lots of water involved) as she was fixing breakfast. Icy roads. About 40 people all eating an Italian feast at Nana's on Christmas day.

As expected, it was a very memorable trip but I was glad to sleep in my bed last night.
Now it is time to make a list of all the things sewing I plan to do during the next 4 days. My first project is hemming a pair of pants. Then I have some napkins to finish serging, two dresses to cut out and work on. A quilt to sandwich, three receiving blankets to finish edges on, and I'm not sure what else will make the list. I'm having a hard time thinking right now. Think it's time to think about getting some sleep. AND, I rented 4 movies to watch . Too bad there's not a
blizzard outside so I could just hunker down and not worry about going anywhere or having anybody drop by and could just sew to my heart's content.
