Festive decorations and such

Had a great and festive weekend! Took my son and his friend to the parade of lights. So we got there about 45 minutes early so we could get a good spot. We found a spot on the sidewalk that was great and we were excite to have a good spot so the kids could see. Well the white line in the street between the sidewalk and the street where the parade was which I think was the shoulder of the road people started to come in front of us. I was so incredibly mad! We were there for about an hour or so cause we wanted good seats with no one in front of us and they came late and just started sitting in front of us and then the kids couldn't see! At least when it started the older lady in front of us let the kids come sit up near them so they could see. Overall it was a fun time though!

We also decorated our house for the Christmas year all but the tree. We are getting a real tree this year so we are getting that this week. I got some houses from my in laws that I was excited to put up cause they have the windows with people in them! I also made my sons stocking 2 years ago and I was very excited to make it and it came out sooo cute! Do you make Christmas decorations or stockings for your family?

New projects

Its that time of year again! Tis the season for holiday shopping! I am working on a few projects for my family right now, but also going to be trying my hand at quilting soon! My dad bought me a new sewing machine for my birthday/Christmas present this year and I am excited to try it out.

I have made my son a new pillow for his bed for my first project with it and it came out pretty well!

My next project is a baby quilt for my shop. I have the quilt squares and the batting and now I just have to put it together HAHA Easier said then done, but here is what I have so far.
