I need to catch you up on everything, but first, let’s take a minuet to see what Bj and I saw on our drive up to the Tri-Cities to visit his parent’s. I didn’t get the first shots of it since I had to reach for my camera, but basically it looked like the weird …

The Pence Family
Last night was a little get together for my dad’s side of the family at my aunt and uncles, low key, dinner and games. The thing is we get serious with our games: I love that picture. Here we’re playing electronic catchphrase (boys versus girls). So the guys try to get the other guys to …
Christmas Crafting – Crunch time
Oh my goodness look how close it’s getting to Christmas: Card garland getting very full, lots of Christmas love from everyone, happy, happy! Last night was my grandma’s "famous" (in our circles) Christmas party. Grandma has a tiny little house but she always hosts this thing and dozens and dozens of people come. I told …

Cemetery Quick Stop

Crafty Day + Tree Skirt
Yesterday I had another craft day in the "lower level." It was so fun having people pop in and out from 9-9. Sciarrino brought muffins to start off the day, then Sarah joined us with a couple of her friends from Corvallis, one of them it turned out Sciarrino and I knew from crew (small …
Sneek Peek
There has been lots of Christmas crafting going on over here, and much that I can’t show. But after spending days stitching binding a quilt I had to brag about it a little. So I had Bj curl up with the project to give you a little taste:Mmmm yummy right? I want to keep it. …

Hello.
Christmas Cards!
Okay so I just sent out a big stack of cards today, still waiting on a few addresses, but most are out. And I got my first three as well (one featuring a photo I took – I feel so special!). So now I need some cute way to display them. I’ve never gotten more …
