Holiday Good Times (or really big annoying picture post)
♥ Comments (9) ♥
Happy New Year to you all!
I hope you all had a nice warm totally awesome holiday. My sister and i enjoyed the time away from the sewing machine. I left for the east coast with Nathaniel to hang with his family for 6 days.
Philly December 23, 2006
There are loads of kitties at the Wilgus’ house. Here’s Mr. Hairpiece snoozing on our bed.
We went to Fabric Row and bought millions of zippers
Hung out in the park because it was nearly 70 degrees and i caught Nat frowning at something in the distance while shooting with his new fancy-pants camera.
We also happened upon this GIANT mirror just on the sidewalk.
Also I don’t believe I took this picture. I think someone snapped it for me. Nat doesn’t SMIRK, he only frowns...in every picture. (look at his fabulous eyebrows, the Belh Brow is a good brow oh-la-la)
Nat’s mom made tons of these for me to eat
And she got some of the coolest gifts (last year’s HK toaster) Hello kitty coffee maker (not pictured HK popcorn popper)
Here’s the chopstic holders and chopsticks i sewed for nat’s mom and sister
Nat’s bro got a Wi and we played it all xmas morning, here’s nat boxing.
Nat’s family does a White Elephant Xmas exchange. I got a knit soap poodle from his Great Aunt Grace’s house, named Pierre (who is in need of some meding) and a japanese crafting book with knitting AND sewing...thank you SANTA. (you totally rock by the way)
I got a lot of gift cards from his family, thanks guys. My family got me a sewing machine (on order) and an external harddrive.
Nat got me this stuff: yes i watch Degrassi JR High, I am also nutzo-out-the-buttzo for Degrassi The Next Generation too. mmmm bacon band-aids, and because i am always the piggy some cram cream piggys. Oh and the boy bought me sock yarn, he is such a good catch.
and now for the yarn...i always buy yarn in philly because it is tax free. Yes you heard that right folks. TAX FREE YARN. I forgot to post the yarn i bought in Sept. So here it is MANOS RIO DE LA PLATA and some trekking
and this trips yarn:
MANOS RIO DE LA PLATA and trekking..i buy the same yarn just different colors.
ok i think that’s enough pictures for now. I have two more things to show you tomorrow. WOO WOO!

It seems as if you had a wonderful holiday! And BTW I love both degrassi’s too! I totally need to get Chris some bacon bandages LOL and MUCHO props to Nat for the yummy sock yarn. Chris is still kinda scared of the yarn store, so I got a gift certificate :)

DEGRASSI!!!!!!!!!! Is it the first season or the second season where Spike gets prego with Emma (lead into the next generation). I knew there was a reason I liked you! I got the bacon bandaids for my bro-in-law. He recently became Jewish and missed bacon!! I know I am mean! :)
