It’s Christmas Eve, are you ready? We have some wrapping to finish up and then I think I can say I’m ready — at least for our second and third round of Christmas.
We started with our first Christmas this past weekend. My whole family were together at my mom & dad’s. There were 27 of us all together. It is crazy, chaotic and loud but we have such a good time together. It is wonderful to see the great grandkids (cousins) playing together. Here are pictures of the different generations together.

My brother David, Mom, Dad, sister Tina, brother Bun and me

These are our children — David’s son & daughter, my son & daughter, Tina’s son & daughter and Bun’s son & daughter (yes, we each have a girl and boy). They loved spending time together too.
And these are the great grandkids — the 3 boys and 1 girl on left are my grandkids
and the 2 girls on the right are my brother Bun’s granddaughters.
Tina’s kids aren’t married yet and David’s kids are in high school.
I wanted to share one last project from my Santa’s Workshop with you.
My office Kleenex box needed a little revamping. I thought this was perfect and it lasts all winter long.

I used the Snowfall Thinlits from the Snowflake Showcase special. The Softly Falling Embossing Folder gave me the perfect background.
I hope you enjoy all your Christmas Eve activities. Remember to treasure the memories that are being made. Time goes by so quickly — savor every minute.
I have another snowman for you today. I am loving the different ideas for snowmen — so cute. This looks more complicated to make than it is. You use the Envelope Punch Board to help make the indent for his hat. The Snowflake Embellishment added just the right touch to his top hat and the googly eyes finish off his face very nice — gives him a bit of character.
