Well today was our official last day for school till after New Year's. Let the fun begin! I may wish that I didn't stop the routine of school but I think we will have fun. We plan to do a little craft each day and then some baking and candy making. Rowdy is pretty excited and he is very good at helping with the baking. It is a crying shame that we are both very craft challenged. We did successfully make a paper chain for the tree in their room. It looks really cute too. I also made a star out of Popsicle sticks and twine. I think it looks weird but others have said it is cute. Tomorrow I start my sewing projects. I am really hoping that my Mom will come and help me. I really haven't a clue about sewing and so well it could be bad. I think I will start with making a sack to hold sacks! HA! You know one of those that you can stuff your wal-mart sacks into. I think I'll start with one of them. If you never see pictures of anything I have sewn then well you will know that it wasn't a good thing. I must say that in home-ec in school I made what was suppose to be a duffel bag and it ended up being the perfect bag to hold a bull horn you know big on one end and small on the other. My nephews loved that silly bag and carried it till it was falling apart which truth be known probably wasn't all that long. I have realized recently that I really have only baking/cooking as a skill. I wonder if it is lack of patience or effort? That is something for me to think about. I am leaning towards patience since the star really ticked me off today! HA! I think I will try to get better at that because Rowdy really enjoys doing those kinds of things. Well it is almost bed time around here and I have a few things left to do. Oh, and after great debate on getting GAC to watch the NFR(we usually upgrade our package for December) and ending up cancelling the usual upgrade due to price we got Free Preview of GAC!!! Kris was beside himself. Me not so much but I can find other things to do. 

PS: The NFR starts tonight...
