The Latest Projects!

I have been working on a few projects lately. My friends and sister-in-law are all having babies so I have been making things for them. It has been a lot of fun. I have made a few for myself but it is for the future. I also have made a Disney baby girl patchwork quilt. It is still in the works. I will post pictures when I am done with that one. I will get to do a lot more projects now that I will have four weeks off of work due to recovering from surgery. That will occupy my time. That is good. So here are some pictures!

This is a quilt that binds itself when you sew it.

My friends and I made magnets one day. Super Fun!

This is a shag quilt, it is a lot of fun to make!

The Events of December and January

Things that we did in December,

Mormon Tabernacle Concert- It was an awesome way to start out the Christmas Season. We got the eighth row at the concert. You could actually see the performers faces. Then we went and saw the Lights at Temple Square. The lights and all the different nativities were very beautiful.

Jazz Game-Our friends invited us to go to the Jazz game with them. We went to Rumbi grill first and then went to the game. Although the Jazz lost, it was still a blast.

Desert Star Playhouse- Jason and I really enjoy going to see the plays at Desert Star. We saw the Miracle of 42nd Street. It was really funny and clever.

Sledding- We went sledding after one of the big storms that we had. It was so much fun. I was going down the hill and I saw this kid in my way so I spun out of control and I ran into another kid and he flew over the top of me. I felt really bad. It had been awhile since I had been sledding. Lots of fun!

Parties- My family had their annual Christmas Eve candlelight dinner. It is one of my favorite traditions. We eat a big turkey dinner, open presents, enjoy each other's company and watch It is a Wonderful Life!(My all time-favorite Christmas movie) Then on Christmas Day, my extended side of my mom's family come over for a party and gift exchange. It was nice to see my cousins that live out of town at the party.
Jason's family had their annual Christmas Day Party. We just eat, talk and open gifts. It was wonderful to get together with the whole family. There is about 30 of us.

Christmas Day-Jason and I had a wonderful Christmas. We got up and opened presents that we gave each other. We mainly gave each other clothes, perfume and cologne, and other little things. We then made biscuits and gravy for breakfast and then we were off to all the family parties. Busy day for us.

New Year's Eve- Jason and I both had the day off, so we went to the Cheesecake factory for lunch. Then we went to wish his friend Mo, a Happy Birthday. Then we went to Jason's family party in Heber. We played Scene it, Liars Dice and Trains. It was a good time. Of course, there was more food to eat. Then we went to my family's party. We played games and talked with each other.

Other News- Jason is on a business trip for two weeks. I am really going to miss him. I hope it goes by fast. Side note: He took the camera and so I don't have pictures to post. I will post them when he gets back.

Well I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and a Happy New Year!
