Of course first of all we got to ooh and aahhhh over the babies - they were sound asleep though - and certainly not the least bit interested in all the craft goings on!
this is a very poor picture of Taylie but I wanted everyone to see the pretty sparklies she has in her ears! so sweet!
Brayden was sawing logs too!
I thought she was going to wake up after the first flash went off - she stretched and opened an eyeball and then promptly went back to sleep.
Kecia found a wreath online at Lowe's that she fell in love with - green wreath with red and lime green ornaments. She put out the suggestion that maybe we could make it for less than it would cost ready made - I don't know if any of us 'saved' much money but we sure had fun copying it.
Okay - this is a the stuff I brought - now four times that with ornaments and ribbons and wreaths from each of us. The table was almost too small and Jamie had the leaf in it!! 
My finished product was totally different than what was online - but it is ME - lots sof sparklies!
This is Jen's but of course she hasn't pulled the ribbons up tight yet - so we don't really get to see the finished product here,
This is Jamie's and it turned out really nice - their ribbon was a metallic red and added a whole different look than
Kecia's whose wreath has sparkly green ribbon in it. I apologize for the sideways picture - my new camera has a pretty good program to download the pictures with but the program decided that this was the correct way to 'show' the picture and I didn't realize it until I got it downloaded. Now if I were really a good mom I would delete this picture and put in another picture that was sitting the right direction and pull it down into place....forget that!! turn your computer sideways!
Here is another shot of my wreath. I have it hanging on my front door - and its not even the middle of November!! My poor Thanksgiving wreath is feeling really put out right now!To finish off this blog I put in the video I took of Emma and her reaction to the babies.
So - we had a great time - I left before Kecia got her garland all decorated but I am sure it is gorgeous too - all of us can give ourselves a good pat on the back!
