Christmas presents for 8yo and 6yo nieces

The first 3 things are for 8yo niece.

This is a 'deer skin' dress for Kaya, along with moccasins.

And 8yo REALLY wanted some longsleeved nightgowns, so hers are the green/ladybug and the blue/penguin.

This is an example, and it's for 6yo niece.  All 3 nightgowns are this style.

6yo got Josefina for her birthday earlier this month.  This is her 'school outfit.'  I think I'll go ahead and make the sash that is in the picture in the catalog too but I didn't do that yet...

And she REALLY REALLY REALLY wanted Josefina's 'Holiday outfit.'  Ididn't have any material just like in the catalog but this is cute I think (and it IS the right style.)  She  really wanted this outfit because of the veil! LOL



We have the BEST Pen-Pals ever!!!!!

Since our Christmas tree died unexpectedly our WONDERFUL penpal Kris, stationed in Japan, sent us Charlie Brown's Christmas Tree!!!!  We were soooo excited!!!!  She sent us Charlie Brown's Christmas video too :)

Thank you sooooo much Kris!!!!!!!

Present Pile, and Jammies I made for Levi

Well, now instead of presents under the tree we have a Pile-O-Presents.  Good thing I took a picture of it before it fell down and broke!!

Jammies I made for my 3yo nephew for Christmas.

 Tractors and tools, his favorites!

The tree fell over

It's broken :(

So, the ornaments are all put away and the presents are in a pile where the tree used to stand. 

Good thing I had taken pictures of it already!

Mary's Birthday Dress

My niece Mary turns 6 today.  I made her a dress, because she's a fancy girl and would wear a dress every day of her life if her mommy let her!!
