…though it doesn’t look like there’ll be much time for posting ’til the girls are back in school next week. Here’s a Christmas Eve picture for you

That’s so weird. I have a picture not unlike this one from a couple years ago where Clark is the screaming infant. Now, he’s just a dinosaur (hence the bizarre facial expression in the pictures).

Christmas was very nice. When we went to Barnes and Noble on Saturday to use our gift cards, I picked up this little book that I’ve been wanting for months.

It’s delightful. Abby and I are working on a couple of little sample designs on 4 inch hoops to learn the stitches.

I’m having visions of girls hand embroidering on cotton skirts dance through my head, made more practical by the acquisition of a new steamer we picked up last night using more gift cards. I couldn’t justify making cotton skirts before now as I totally don’t iron. But with that obstacle out of the way… I wanna sew some cotton skirts with the girls!
