Crochet Me Crazy

 Well, just got finished with a VERY busy 4 days with the grandkids!  It was exhausting.  We were trying to cram all the traditions we usually do in a month into 4 days.  

The girls ran into our house Tuesday night running to look at all of the Christmas decorations in the house that they remember.  Treelyn said...but Grandma we always decorate Douglas for you!  Sadly, they weren't here for that.  Maybe next year I will save Douglas for them.  By the way, Douglas is a talking mini tree that has been around since my kids were little.  

Treelyn found the the bear I made for Lanna in my craft room.  When I made this bear a few weeks back I called her the ugliest thing I have ever crocheted.  

Treelyn loved it!  She thought it was so cute!  I said I made it for Lanna and when Lanna saw it, she loved it too.  I was like, really?  You think its cute.  I wasn't gonna give it because I thought it was so goofy looking.  Gotta say it warmed my heart for the girls to love it so much.  I have to make a bear for Treelyn still.  I'm going to try a different pattern though and hopefully she will love the one I come up with next.  Here is Lanna with her bear:

So our busy week started the same night I picked them up on Tuesday.  We stopped at the light in Llano on our way home.  




It was all in a bit of a hurry before we headed to the skating rink!  We skated for over an hour and then ran and got Taco Bell (the only place we could afford to eat to feed all these kids eating out!)  We ate our food on the bricks in the light display.  Got home a little late.  Whew!  It's only day 2 and I'm already tired!
