So I made some cool earrings...

Santa Claus is coming to town...

Christmas 1984


Oh, the antissssssssss..........cipation! I love December. My birthday is the 21st. Adam's is the 5th. My mom's is the 15th. My nephew Nathan's is the 20th. My nephew Jacob's is the 25th. Sarah's was the 29th. My brother-in-law Brandon's is the 30th. My aunt Roselle's is the 31st. And my friend Kevin's and Michelle's little boy "Hamster" both fall on the 21st like mine. They are what my mom calls "star twins".

Something about the winter time just makes me happy. Maybe it's the cool, crisp air that has us donning sweaters. It could be Orion high in the sky, always there when I look up at the stars. It could be Christmas!, and the memories of family and friendly togetherness. I just love December!

You can always go.... Downtown!

I just love my family! Here we are in downtown Newnan.


We were visiting a friend, Clay. He and his wife were selling their wares downtown today- she makes jewelry and crotchets and he carves neat and useful items from wood.





If you notice Erick in the photos, he has his hand up his sleeve. He still has a weird thing for sleeves; when he's nervous/shy/tired he will try to find a sleeve. He even tries to put his hand up Chrissy's sleeve. When he doesn't have someone else's, he'll use his own, ha ha.

Thanks to Clay for the photos!
