Jack Frost

Here it is, Christmas card 2012.   Around Thanksgiving we shoot our Christmas card photograph.  Mom has been planning it for awhile.
I usually enjoy the photo shoots.  They are no more than 10 minutes.  Here are some other pictures from the session:
We tried several snowflakes...but my mouth looks funny.
Over exposed, crown cut off!
I forgot to put my hand up!
No!  Look at the snowflake not the camera!
It was fun.  Mom is already thinking of next year.

Improving my fine motor skills

Mom went to Parent teacher conferences.  I'm doing fine, except I need to work on my fine motor skills.  All of a sudden projects started popping up at home.  I do like gingerbread houses.....This year, I was the art director.  We did it all my way.

Mom did all the squeezing of the frosting, while I placed the candy.
There's the front.
We went to Jo Ann's to look at all the kid's craft projects.  Mom showed me Perler Beads.  You buy different color beads and place them on a heat resistant grid.  When your design is done, you have your Mom iron it and it all sticks together!!!!
This grid, fits over our iPad.  We can make designs on the iPad and grid them out with beads.  We've made Creepers, snowflakes, a Totoro.  We try and do a little every day.
I do enjoy the flexibility of these beads.  I can make anything!




Thanksgiving 2012


We had a nice Blacksher-David Thanksgiving.   I was excited to see cousin Maddox.
We ran around and we danced.  He is finally a ton of fun!
Tha tha and Grandma Judy were there.  They provided the venue and the Turkey.
Poppa, Grandma Jeanie, Uncle Patrick, Aunt Megan, and Mom brought the rest.
I'm so glad Thanksgiving is over-now we can start thinking about Christmas!
