Ramblings of a Crazy Woman

Colton made the county All Star Football team.

Colton did a rope course with the Boy Scouts ! Cody got moved up to Varsity for the playoff !! And made straight A's his first quarter of High School. So proud of him ! I see great things for him in his future :)

We had a fun Halloween !   Thanks Beth for the great pictures  

I have been wanting to make a snowman Christmas tree for a while and I finally did it. She turned out prefect. I love her ! I started with an old 6 foot tree, garland, a wreath, table covers (I found at Wal-mart $2.50 a pack), hat, ribbon, scarf, 3 old pillows, tape, grocery plastic bags, buttons boots, lights and ornaments. I made the head with pillows and bags and wrapped them with the table covering.  I had pulled the limbs up to form a circle but it was not very full. So I added a wreath around the neck area. The middle and bottom section is shaped with pillows and bags and the tables cover is formed around it. Garland is added to the middle and bottom to make more greenery.  The eyes are made with black yarn glued in a spiral, with false eye lashes. The nose is a construction paper cone with orange yarn glued to it. The mouth are buttons and the cheeks are blush.
