need a holiday to get over the holidays!..LOL
I've had some very busy busy days
and not much sewing for me done...
Christmas was wonderful with my Family
and my parents and grand children...they are such a delight!
I received some lovely gifties from my treasured friends...
I felt truly spoilt...I love you all and your all so precious to me..
then came Boxing day.... of this was a funny ha ha day for me...
My Girls asked Why? is it called Boxing day?
well I told them what my mum had told me...
It's to box up all the unwanted leftovers from
Christmas and give to the poor..
Miss K the next day decided she would box up
in her spare toy storage box some of her sisters
unwanted toys...LOL...to give away to the poor
Miss J was so distressed that she was loosing toys
from the year before, because she had new ones now....
Had to Promise the girls this coming Boxing day 2012
we would Box up some special things for the poor.
We have truly enjoyed our Holidays and seeing in the New year
surrounded by friends and family.
