Ladies' Night

I got together with my favorite girls for our second annual ornament exchange last night. This year's theme was "handmade." These ladies create to impress!

Check 'em out.......

Auntie H painted this "C" to compliment our 2005 wedding invitation (has it been that long?)




Aunite A sculpted this little guy. Look familiar?




Auntie L found vintage 12 Days of Christmas cookie cutters, circa 1970 something and made us each a complete set!




These girls melt my heart. I miss spending time with them, and I am so thankful for every moment we have together.

Oh, and I knit these little guys.... I remembered to take pictures in the car with my phone.



The roads were starting to get nasty on the way home. It was a slow trek. About 3 minutes after walking through the door, the power went out at our house, and didn't kick back on until 2 am. No worries, though. Jordan LUCKILY bought firewood yesterday so we could cozy up and talk about our day.

Lovely ornaments! You have very talented friends. Holden's toes will be very toasty in those little socks. They are so cute! I have tried to knit, but I am better at crochet. Hannah likes to knit, she is pretty good at it.
