Merry Sithmas!!

I don't consider myself a "crafty" woman.  I excel in some areas and not so much in other levels of craftiness and homemaking skills.  With that being said, today I was a crafty diva!

It started out with a vision - a dream really.    Actually it was a website I happened across with Star Wars snowflakes and once Gage saw it, I knew I was going to have to pull out all the crafty prowess I could muster!  Making snowflakes is not a talent I possess.  Let me be honest, I rarely manage to fold the paper correctly.  But the boy "needed" these snowflakes for his own personal tree.  And I am always searching for ways to make him believe I am the "cool mom" I proclaim to be.   I knew I would have to at least try to make these Star Wars snowflakes.



It only took me several hours- yes hours, remember what I said about me being on differing levels of craftiness.  If I could have found better tools it would have been easier and quicker (I still haven't unpacked much from that garage).  They didn't turn out too bad, and I assure you, he thinks I am so cool.  What mom doesn't soak that up?

....and so I say to all as I drive out of sight; Merry Sithmas to all, and to all a good night!  (lol, its 1am this is the best I could do!)

The Hicken's have left the building!

Its officially finished!  Our move is OVER!!!  it took about 10 days to pack, clean, organize, throw away, donate and beg innocent people to take the stuff we didn't want.  I don't want to give the wrong impression so I will just say that although the old house is empty it doesn't mean the new house is unpacked or organized - it is clean though.....for the most part!

I don't have any photos to show because I can't find my camera and I don't even know where to start looking.  Bill can only find one pair of shoes, my piano ended up in the playroom and we can't park in the garage because that's where everything is!  Whats even worse, there is so much stuff in the garage that I don't know how we will get it out because we can't even move around in there!

One more thing - Please don't think ill of me but I won't be sending Christmas cards again this year....I can't find a pen to write with anyway!  But if you would like to send me one (I really do love them) email me for my new address!  dutchess80232@yahoo.com
