fabric for sale

It's that time of year where i want the "extra" stuff in the house gone.  Purging will be happening around here!  I started with my sewing room. I bought a bunch of fabric a year and a half ago, but some of it never found a use.  i'm tired of feeling guilty for not using it, so i thought it's time for the fabric to find a new home where it can be used!  i probably could have been even more ruthless with my stash, but here is the first round. 

 anything that does not sell through the blog will end up on etsy.  but i like to offer here first :)

Our December

It's amazing to me that Christmas is 2 days away.  I knew that this month would fly by.... just not this fast!

i thought i would post a few photos from this past month :)

light and shadows are changing

 

dark and rainy one moment, then the next is full of blue sky

silly...but i always look forward to using my Christmas mugs :)

 
 

ashlyn wanted to make a stocking...so she picked out her fabrics, and here she is sewing the lining together....she did a really good job! :)

 
 
after i made hers, of course benjamin wanted one.  he picked out his fabric and style....though, i think he isn't thrilled with the final product! haha.  i then made new ones for adam and myself...made with linen, chambray and cotton.  Benjamin ended up liking daddy's (brown one) the best :)

 

i like mine :)  simple on the outside, and my favorite christmas print on the inside :)

 

ashlyn's art....one for ben and the other for her teacher :)

the kids' Christmas program at school... benjamin is the short one in the front row ;)

 

my mom came out for a week and treated ashlyn and me to see The Nutcracker in Seattle :) (sad...i didn't have my camera...just my iphone.  this is all i got!)

 

baking cookies....adam made peanut butter blossoms, and i made chocolate chip
 
 

enjoying twinkle lights....i'm gonna miss them after the season :(

 
 

 just a couple shots of the kids at bedtime :)

 
 
this morning:

 

 
 

a christmas miracle

 ....well, i guess not that big of a deal, but i kind of figured it's a miracle that i'm finally posting something.  i'm sorry... for those of you who check my blog everyday and had to look at the same front photo each and every time.  i get annoyed when that happens on other blogs...so, i'm sorry. :) i'm not even going to attempt to catch up on the last 2 months.  but here are a few bullet points with one corresponding photo:

- scott and chloe got married...the family was all out and it was a blast.  the wedding was beautiful...i cried buckets (and thankfully the photographer didn't get me in my "ugly cry" moment) . we all cried buckets, i believe.

 

-fall was beautiful.  i love fall

 

-the kids are hilarious and growing up fast.  how does that happen? here is us on halloween

 

-i love my sweet husband.

  

ok, that pretty much catches you up to"now-ish" ;)

So, it snowed the week of thanksgiving.  It was 3+ inches of beauty!

 
 

  
 

 

for thanksgiving, adam's cousin ryan and his girlfriend Ai came to visit.  Ryan was taking her all over to see the US for the first time (they met in japan when he was living over there).  she was so sweet!  and it was so cool to hear him talk in full japanese.

 
 

i was excited to use these plates for the first time.  i scored 8 of them at Goodwill...awesome condition.  they are from the 60's.

 
the gang

 

Ryan and Ai :)

 

the next day, we broke out the Christmas decor! sorry if these are darker than normal.  too lazy to go into photoshop ;)

Ashlyn made this... so cute, right??  she has already stuffed all our stockings with some sort of note (i think that is what it is), and right now she is working on crafts to give us as our presents under the tree.  so precious.  kids just make christmas so fun!

 
 
 
 
 
 

all decorated :)

 

i even learned how to make a fresh wreath!  so simple! and handy that i have all the douglas fir branches i need in my own backyard ;)

this one i made at a wreath making party... one of the girls brought holly and cedar from her property.

 

this one i just made from the fallen branches in my backyard.  yay for pine cones  still attached!

 

ok! i think that is pretty much it for now.  i'll try not to make it so far and few between, but no promises.  blogging takes forever compared to facebook ;)
