Gift Ideas

Okay, so it's that time of year again.  I wish I could have made a few more of my gifts but here are a few of the ideas that I had this year.  

I like to make a "family game" for whoever I have for Christmas in my family.  Need you remember Chad and Abbi's Monopoly Game or Curt and Carrie's Yahtzee.  I also made a Go Fish game for Crystal and her family but I don't have that pictured.

Well, this year I put together a personal favorite game... Chutes and Ladders.  That's right!  Actually, I wanted to totally redo the board but didn't get a chance to.  Sorry Nate and Michelle!  Although, you all look great!

 AND... you can take it to Grandma and Grandpa's house to play with them as well.  BONUS!
 Then I was feeling a little over motivated and made some aprons for the boys!  Then I made Michelle's.  Then, I went to the store and bought Nate's.  Sorry Nater.  I still love you!

 We even added some personalized tags to them!
 Then I made some mugs to put them in with a few little trinkets and treats for each of them.  Thank you Jon and Ellie for bringing my "fragile" gifts home for me to deliver to them.

Another project I have been working on is some onesies.  It seems like everyone is having a baby this time of year.  March must have been an exciting time of year!  Ü  I found these cute patterns and put together some onesies for the new little ones.
 Also, thanks to my good friend Jamie, I was able to learn how to crochet and found a pattern from some cute little booties.  

Aw shucks!    Had I not been pregnant, I may have been able to fit in a few more projects... but this is it for now!  Enjoy!

Good grief, we were gone for a few days during the holidays and so I hadn't seen all the fun things you did. Truly amazing!!! I'm on my way to look at one of your Activity Day activities. That's right, you're my 'idea source'.
