Not Forgotton

I know it has been a while. Just busy! Who isn't this time of year? I am getting excited for the holiday. Tomorrow we will open few gifts, a tradition. Hopefully I will post some pictures and update. I still have some presents to wrap. And one gift yet to finish. It is taking longer than I thought it would to make.

Right now, we are watching "White Christmas" one of my favorites. They are on the train to Vermont, singing the song SNOW. Oh how I wish we had some of that white stuff. no snow, snow....I think of peace, quiet,,,white stuff, snuggling...... fireplaces.

Happy Holidays!

Reflections

Today was the award ceremony for the reflections program. It is a national PTA art education program for kids. Both Evan and Allan entered this year. Allan won first place in photography, outstanding interpretation. His photograph has been forwarded on to the city level for judging. The theme was "WOW". Evan did a pencil drawing of a camping scene in the wilderness. Allan took a picture of a cicada. Next year's theme is "Beauty Is..." I can only wonder what the boys will come up with for that.
