bLoGgY sLaCkEr

Oh, my...I SO did not intend to let such a long time pass between posts!!  Ah, such is the life of a wife, mom of three, teacher, and crafter/sewist.   By the way, those are all me. :) 

The last several months have brought many changes to our band of five.  Hubby got a new job, right here in town (YAY!) which will lead to a higher position next year.  In September, we very suddenly lost my sweet father-in-law after he suffered an aneurysm in his brain.  He was 54 years old. 

The holidays were a bit different this year, and myself and all three kids had a wicked flu during Christmas!  Things have been very low-key during break, as we rest and recover. 

On an exciting note, on December 20th, my new nephew was born!  He is round and sweet and I just adore him!  His bedroom theme is sock monkeys, which has inspired me to try and make one...I think every house needs a sock monkey.  The Kia commercials make me think that our sock monkey will need a tattoo sewn on his arm. :)  I love that commercial!

I have nothing particularly crafty to post right now, but I have lots of new projects I am trying and will be posting about those soon!

Happy New Year, everyone!
