Around the bend

Yes, Christmas is coming.  Everyone is rushing here and there. 
I really try to get  things done early and stay out of stores.  I had to walk through a huge mall last week to find the restaurant where my doll club had their Christmas luncheon.  I felt like a fish in a bowl.  Almost claustrophobic.  
I am now going to enjoy the rest of the season. I still have cards to send and presents to wrap and messes to clean up.  I hope you can all slow down enough to enjoy the little things.
BloggerImageThe little creatures are my beginning needle felting projects. I have a ways to go.  It's fun.  Well fun until your little dog steals your wool and you have to chase him down.
BloggerImageMy little doll from last year.  Do you see the little monkey.  He was a gift from my doll friend .
BloggerImageThis sweetie is four months now.  Just love her so much.

I'll be back soon.

Back from a break

I have been decorating for the holidays. BloggerImageJust have some tweaking to do.  Most of my shopping is done.  I like to get things done early so I can enjoy the season.  
I thought today I would take pictures for our Christmas card.  Well that was fun. BloggerImage BloggerImage BloggerImage They were so good. A bit confused esp. When we were finished.  They didn't even get to go anywhere.  They did get a bone.

BloggerImageWe have been watching this sweetie a lot. They have moved twice since I last posted.  She's been gaining weight but still not very long. BloggerImage

So that is what I have been up to.  

I am supporting shopping small businesses this holiday. If you have an etsy shop or a small business, please post on this post.
Thanks and Happy Holidays

Happy trails to you BloggerImage BloggerImageMy fall view from my porch BloggerImageIt's a two dog lap kinda day.  Brrrrrr BloggerImage BloggerImage BloggerImageI have been organizing my doll room.  I have been busy adding to my Etsy shop ( grammypetals).  Most of these are keepers. I am realizing I have a big inventory not even counting these.  Trust me , my collection is very tiny compared to the other doll club members.  Did I mention they voted me in as secretary.  We have doll auctions this week.  I going but will be sitting on my hands.
Tonight is Trick or Treat at the mall.  Since my church is The Church in the Mall I will be handing out popcorn and cotton candy.
Oh this is my laundryman. He picked out the new washer and dryer and has been on fire since.  No complaints here.
So happy trails to you...........

Pumpkin patch

BloggerImage BloggerImage BloggerImageI love going to the pumpkin patch. They get more elaborate every year. We used to have two great choices close by.  One closed last year. That's a little sad.  M and M have had a little fall break. We were happy to spend time with them.
We have also been spending time with this little one as well.BloggerImageShe is gaining weight more than height.  She is so happy when she finishes her bottle and before she falls asleep.  Such a sweet baby.  I wish things were easier for her little family. Seems like there is always turmoil.  They are looking for a new home at the moment.
I have been to a couple of flea markets lately and a few coming up.  It's so much easier when it isn't so hot outside.  We are still having above average temps but cooler evenings.  The leaves are turning.

I am trying to organize my dolls.  After our last doll club meeting I think several of us are afraid of become hoarders.  I have a small collection compared to others. But I don't want my dolls to takeover.  I moved several things around and out of the room.  It still looks the same.  Any one want to share about their collections or offer advice.

I hope you are enjoying fall in your neck of the woods.  Such a beautiful time of the year.
Toddles.
