coming together.

i have been crafting all day.
i went shopping to pick up supplies to make the shed at work into a gingerbread house.
mary and i are working on it tomorrow.

i wrapped all of the christmas presents that i have so far.

i have been baking a lot. this weekend i made red velvet whoopie pies with peppermint cream cheese filling, and some with vanilla bean cream cheese filling.
tonight i am making the old stand by, tollhouse cookies with m&ms. nothing fancy.
i decided i want parker to have the complete nancy drew series. i got her first installment this weekend.
i made some ornaments today, nothing crazy. i bough glass balls and filled them with stuff. the first one is just scraps of red fabric with some glitter.
this one i like the best. its just scraps of white fabric.
the last one i made didnt turn out as good as i wanted it to, but i only spent about five minutes making it. i cut up a lot of scraps of paper and wrote 2009, parkers 2nd christmas etc.
parker has been getting into the tree a lot recently. i want to put the presents under the tree, but if i do, i am going to have to put the coffee table in front of the tree so she doesnt pull all of the bows off of the presents again.

i worked for hours tonight on other presents for people that i cannot show at the moment. after christmastime i will show everyone what i have been working on!

i am very happy to say that i am officially moving back to atlanta january 15th. i found the perfect house with ro. i am so excited. its so cute. im signing the lease this week and putting down the deposit.
now all that needs to happen is for me to get the internship and to meet a nice man!
