Christmas gift for Charlotte

 This is a primitive cardigan just for Charlotte.

  I did all the embroidery myself.

Cute little back.

Friends dropped over the other night and brought their baby to visit.

Don't you just want to pinch those cheeks.

Can you smell the baby powder?

 Ahh the wonder of Christmas.

I have been a very good girl this year.

Merry Christmas Everyone!!!

Gingerbread House

 Everyone had a job.  First the siding had to be put on the house.  Then the roofer, Josh was called.  That started the construction of the gingerbread house.

 The landscaper came and put in the Christmas bushes.  Notice the cute aprons.  Grandma made those.

Samantha helped with the candy cane reindeer and was very good at eating the gumdrops.  Michael created a storm door on the side for those nasty Christmas tornadoes. Thanks to all the great construction workers.

At the end of the day we were visited by the Sugar Plum Fairy.  She is trying on a real ballerina skirt.  She even recognizes the Nutcracker Suite music and says that the Princess is coming.

Llama's in the Christmas Parade

Have you ever seen Llama's in a parade?  At first I thought they were Alpaca's and they may even be but I am pretty sure they are llamas.

 Why do llamas have such long, long necks?
Because their feet really stink.

 What a beautiful coat.

Do llamas spit?

They can weigh between 250 and 500 pounds.

LLamas are not ruminates, in case you wanted to know.

 Llamas are bigger than Alpacas.
Llamas chew in a figure 8 motion. 

 Why did the llama cross the road?
    Because the chicken was on vacation.

What do you get if you stand between two llamas?

llamanated.

Look at those fluffy tails.
