A Wednesday Of Staying Home All Day.....

Wow, it is so strange spending the whole day at home today. Mr. V has the day off, kids have no where they needed to be, and I had no where I needed to be. My neighbor did come over and gave both guys a haircut this morning. Now yesterday was another story, there was much driving to be done and many places that needed to be. It has been a very nice change just staying home.....



Ricky did complete the moccasins he started yesterday. We found a kit for him to try and he really enjoyed it. He would like to make another pair out of items he picks out and he could make them bigger. I was very proud of the guy, he even took them a part because he didn't think look as nice as they should the first time sewing them up. Once again WOW, he is growing up and taking his time. (Yes, it is a rather large picture, but, figured I owed him that since he did such a nice job...)



One thing I have been working and had not post yet is a cross stitch project from Quick and Easy an issue from November, no. 132 (the magazine has changed name now so don't know if there is a way to get back issues or not, you can try here if interested).



It is suppose to be an advent calendar when done. I know I will be changing the bottom part since I have a hard time locating what they used. But, I have an idea of how I want to make it.



I have a ways to get still, but, hopefully I will be able to get some more of it done this week....Looking at the above picture, it looks like I will have to try a close up picture next time to if that looks better.....


Guess that is about all the excitement going on here. Of course there are always the everyday stuff that goes on...Cooking, cleaning, more cooking, more cleaning, and on and on it goes......Until tomorrow have a wonderful day......

Hey! I made a pair of moccasins for my son recently. I've yet to post about them, but want to, including a scan of the instructions from and old Reader's Digest book. I'm totally impressed by your son's stick-with-it-ness. :)
