We had a nice and quiet Christmas in Oregon. I heard a song on the radio last week that said spending Christmas in the Northwest is every child's Christmas wish. Sure it is .

Here are a couple of pictures of things I made as Christmas gifts. One is an ornament made out of a coaster you would get in a restaurant. I stamped my image and colored with chalks and then used clear embossing powder over the entire front.

And the other is a quilt I made for Conner. The quilt is named "Someday" because Conner is always saying, "someday when I have a dog..."

Freedom and Sonic

School is over! I don't have to study another algebraic equation or forumula for another month. In the past week I spent close to 40 hours studying for the final (note to self: this isn't necessary if you stay caught up throughout the term). I'm not sure how I did, but it is over.

Sonic has finally opened in the Northwest. I decided after my test I needed a cherry limeade. After being open for a month there are still long lines and people directing the traffic. Crazy!! When it was time to pay, the numbers were still spinning in my head and trying to find a place to land I couldn't remember my pin #. I'm glad I had some cash so I could enjoy my cherry bliss.
