Why hello friends. I see Jake has been keeping you busy with posts. I have not had much to blog about lately, so I just didn't. I love my students, a whole lot in fact. However, my job seems to be draining every aspect of my life and I have had no ambition or anything blog worthy. My job has got me down, but not in the dumps. I am in dire need of this Holiday break!
On to a happier note, we got into the Christmas spirit last night. Our condo is very tiny (470 sq feet) and no room for a real tree. We are on a hunt for a small one. Till we find one we just hung our stockings and ornaments on ric rack draped across our book shelf. {Pictures to come later}. I also followed Erica's words and got the Hotel Cafe Holiday album from itunes - amazingly jolly.
Last night I finished making my first baby blanket for my sister in law Becca. Here it is. All you sewers don't look too close! I never ever ever use a pattern and you can absolutely tell.
sorry for the poor photos.
Happier posts to follow. I pinky promise.

oooh that looks really cute aj. didn't know you never used a pattern! the talent just flows out of you doesn't it?
welcome back- glad you'll be getting a break soon!
love the blanket! such creativity running through those bones of yours.
that blanket looks cozy, what a lucky bebe. I feel you in the lack of space where do we put a tree area. I think we are going to pass this year.
DARLING baby blanket! You're just so creative, AJ...and as for your job -- I'll bet the Christmas break will give you the breather you need. Merry Christmas, Sweet Girl -- and may the joy of the season give you new....ooomph. (Sorry -- I couldn't think of the word I wanted!)
aj- that looks great, love the fabrics? is the pink and browns a flannel? it's awesome!
AJ it looks adorable... you are so talented, we would never notice any mistakes!
Only one week left, and then fun in the snow...it'll be so amazazing. :)
that's funny your apratment is so small. I think it's the only number that kind of compares with ours:336 sqare feet. haha we have a teeny tiny tree on top of our table. :) Christmas break is coming soon!
