It’s that time of year, and Elf Chookyblue’s sleigh is making the rounds all around the world.
Waiting at my door was my SSCS parcel from Nicky all the way from New Zealand!!!!
How exciting. Three packages…one marked “Ornament To Be Opened Now”!!
So, so cute and what an amazing job Nicky did . I LOVE snowman anything and everything, and to have a cross stitched ornament from Nicky to add to my handmade ornament tree is wonderful. Now there are two other packages to tempt me…one marked “Open Whenever”. Ok, I am very weak!!! My whenever lasted about 12 hours!!!! It contained a super cute tea towel from New Zealand and a wonderful assortment of Christmas ribbons. I love the ribbons my packages were tied with, and now I have my very own !!! Package number three marked “The Main Event” has been hidden away….I cannot be trusted. Nicky thank you so much for my wonderful goodies and a HUGE thanks to Chookyblue for coordinating this fun international swap!!!
Now for some more Happy Family News. In the words of my sweet niece “After many, many years of being a girlfriend I was promoted to fiancée! So another wedding will be happening in the family!! We are over the top excited and proud too!!! Her guy recently passed The Bar and has been officially sworn in!
Anyone looking for a good attorney?? He comes highly recommended by his future Aunt!!!!
I am still under some deadlines for Christmas bindings…..so no sewing here!!! But tomorrow The Dots are coming and there’s some big time playing with Papa and Nana scheduled!! Happy week everyone!
