the stockings were hung

when we moved during the heat of the summer, christmas was the last thing on my mind. so i forgot to get out our christmas stockings. i needed a new one for char this year so instead of digging through the storage shed to find my box where my stockings were i decided to make us all new ones.
i LOVE how they turned out. special thanks to my mom for helping me figure out the lining--that was tricky!
now we are officially ready for this guy.

Santa

Our ward Christmas party was last Friday. Carter was so excited to see Santa! My sister Amy was Santa's helper. Sean was in charge of the event and did all of the cooking by himself! Primary was in charge of the decorations so I was at the church the whole day too. It was a long day but it was worth it...the food was great and so was the program. But I am glad it is over!
