INTRODUCTION
I know that it has been awhile since I have written
a post here. So, I will give you all a
quick update. Since my last post, my
husband and I moved into our new house. Our
current location cuts his commute to work and our commute to Mass in half. We have been quite busy between settling in,
making repairs, and preparing for our little baby, who is due by April 5th,
to come into the world. This past
Christmas we also decided to have the majority of our gifts which we gave our
friends and family to be homemade. I
will share with you below some pictures of our various
creations. God bless you all!

Thanks, Catherine!
ReplyDeleteIt is amazing how much a person can save when one makes homemade gifts, and they have SO MUCH more meaning to them as well! So, I figured being pregnant and not able to do too much physically, I could at least employ me hands to something useful. ;)
Yes! We are VERY excited about the baby!!! Only about 2 months to go now!
How have you been? Have you worked on any new projects recently? Are you still working at the farm or have you switched jobs?
Hope you have been well!
Happy Feast of Saint Francis de Sales!
God bless!
