Merry Christmas & Happy Hanukkah, my lovelies! I decided not to document Gretchen screaming for this year’s Christmas card. We all look bland, happy, and excited about lights. Not at all a realistic representation. (Artistic liberties & all that…)

I finally finished my gifts for the nieces (I couldn’t leave them out after slaving over the $5 gifts for the nephews. I tend to get carried away with projects. Perhaps you’ve noticed.) Gretchen is modeling her Princess Hat and tulle skirt. And rockin’ the Lawn Gnome look.

Here it is laid out of the floor so you can see what it really looks like. And I could attempt to write down directions, but I’m not exactly sure how I pulled this off. Lets just say it involved my mother-in-laws surger, leftover canvas from college painting class, and a hot glue gun.

Happy Holidays!
