It's never too late for Christmas

So i am sorry for the slight delay in blog posts, for as many of you might now i never blog, opps i mean am bad at this....anyways, the move to denver didn't help much either, talk about not feeling the swing of things. But it's getting better. I have lots more pictures i'm getting ready to upload here shortly (not tonight though cause i am spent) so check back soon. PLus we are building a house and it is getting done pretty fast, pretty excited so i will post pictures of that too. Anyways, on to Christmas..... this was Vera's first and Vincent's 3rd, as you can tell, neither of them knew what the crap to do.....
Oh and the horse? sheer terror.... no just teasing, i think it was their favorite, atleast for the first 4 minutes, Vera did practicaly stare at it for the whole morning. We put her on a few times and she loved it.

Above is a continuation of the staring contest she has with the horse and below is her older brother so graciously helping her open her presents.
As many of you might now we live in Brandis basement and so we had to make due with what we had, meaning no ledge or fireplace for the stockings, since it's all 2x4's and covered insulation. I thought this turned out pretty cute nonetheless. THis was my first attempt and actually sewing stockings and it took quite a few days of just the process of thinking of how it works since i didn't have a pattern.
By the way, Merry Christmas a month ago from the darlings! sorry, we didn't get christmas cards out at all, I promise I will be better next year!

Hey, I love your new post. The stockings did turn out way cute, but not as cute as your kids. Thanks for the new photos.
