Christmas tree oh christmas tree

We finally made to December & the annual family christmas day. Our place we've been going to for the last few years weren't doing trees this year so we had to find somewhere new. We ended up at a local lumber yard where the Elks were selling trees for charity

We were a little early & everyone else was late so we had time to look

Finally Dani & LiLi showed up & eventually Mark & Deidre. That was all that were
coming. Keeping it real there was some miscommunication & we were the only ones who got a tree when, in fact, we didn't really want to get one! It was too early & I would have liked to have waited a week or two. Dani would have got one but they had sold out of the dump truck size😛 Sott & Deidre of course, being homeless, weren't getting one this year.

Molly is being "spoken" to!!😝

She just wanted to say hi to Dani

I picked out a tree & bought it because the guys had been so nice & it was for a good cause.

Inside they were doing pet portraits with Santa so we figured lets not waste this opportunity!

It was mass confusion getting the dogs in place!

Look at Luna......she's like "I don't want anything to do with this guy"

"Come on Molly. Lets make a run for it"

Luna reluntantly went back but was not happy

This is a combo of all the "out takes"

Love Val💖

Designer "doggy uggs"

Poor Molly has been having a hard time already this winter with the snow. She has good size pads on her feet which are "webbed" like a lab's foot. When she goes in the snow it builds up in between her pads & forms a hard piece of almost ice-like snow. Then she holds her foot up for someone to pull it out. I decided to make her her own boots. Jessica had spent the night here as we went to First night for new years....more on that later.....so we "googled" how to make dog boots & then modified it to work for Molly. Keep in mind these were boots you could make in 10 minutes. It took approx 10 mins to measure Molly's feet. Two hours later here's the results I did decide to make her 2 for each foot figuring she would be like any typical kid & lose a couple here & there. We had to go to W*lmart in the middle of the project to get velcro to make the fasteners. We then made her wear them around the house for a while ...

Molly bike riding????

Popster has been teaching Molly to run along side of his bike. It has been a slow process but she's finally getting it. They start off very slowly....... then speed up a little...... which is when she gets crazy& decides to "carry" the leash...... gradually she feels more comfortable.... then she begins to gallop.... & the ears start to flap!!!!!

Today we have a riddle???

What do you get when you cross a pile of scraps, a sewing machine, a woman possessed, & a husband on a week long golf trip? The following......... This is a tablecloth for my kitchen table....forgot to take the finished pic Cover for my sewing machine...very proud of this as I quilted the whole thing. This is the back....got tired of doing squares! Matching cover for my serger. I meant to post these a while ago & must have forgot. I have done a couple other projects since then which I will get around to posting soon. Had computer problems so I have some catching up to do Love
