socks for me!

it is rather cold here lately so i thought maybe a few new socks....from sock dreams. i love their socks!

christmas tree and more...

yesterday we went to my son's christmas party at school. we made little houses out of graham crackers and decorated them with candy. i wrapped some more gifts for my husband today and put them under the tree so i took a few pics. this tree is rather ugly..it is fiber optic and has attached ornaments but my son loves it so thats why it is there. also i found the cutest tin box at walmart yesterday with mary engelbreit illustrations on it. great to keep my barrette and hair thing collection inside!

we have had a few new things last week and this week. first a dress for bethie from academybedlam on etsy. it doesn't fir as well as i hoped but it is very cute! strawberry print corduroy. wearing cute long socks and boots with it.
next crafter's companion.which i am truly enjoying! so nice to read about other crafters with the "need" to create and lots of wonderful pictures.
and last a truly adorable trade from micasita so cute kawaii stationary including teddy bear notecards, virgencity sticker, magnet, strawberry diary, strawberry pic and angel post cards. love them! thanks for the trady rosy!
