Wrapping Up the Year....

This is just a funny photo I took when we were preparing to take a family photo at my dad's house.  My brother placed one camera on the table to set it up for the timer and I happened to set my camera behind it and  decided to go ahead and take this photo.

Here is the real family photo:

For some reason, we always remember to take these group photos at my dad's house, but not at my mom's house.  I'll have to make a note for next year.

I've finished a lot of things since I last wrote:

• Peek-A-Boo Toy Sacks for my niece and nephew

• A Naughty Secretary Bag for my friend

• dish mats 
• lined drawstring bags
• Bountiful bags (made out of Christmas fabric)  -- this past summer, I won a copy of Melissa's pattern and it has taken me until now to get some of these bags made up.  I used Christmas fabric and then used them for my brother's gifts.  I really liked how these bags made up and will definitely be making more.  

I'm sure there's more, I just can't think of them all right now....

Other things that I have done lately:

• went to a professional hockey game (1st time to see a hockey game)
• went to a water park (1st time for this, too)

Again, I'm sure there's more, but I can't think of anything right now.  I'm going to go and start thinking about what I would like to accomplish in the new year :-)
