Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas, dear friends! This will probably be my last post in 2013. I want to share a few December pictures.

My youngest son Fiodor and me at a Christmas party.

I am proud of my sons. While the weather was nice (now the snow is melting) we took advantage of it and went skiing. Fiodor, who is 4,5 y.o., quickly learned how to ski this winter and already bravely skis down quite a steep hill.

I am glad I made these tags ahead of time. Attaching theme to the gifts brings me lots of pleasure. I used red glittered embossing. The stamp is by Hero Arts called "The greatest gift". The craft paper was recycled.

Aren't these gingerbread chalets pretty? I baked them yesterday and let. I decorated and assembled them today using some lemon icing. I have taken the recipe from The Taste of Home magazine. One chalet is for my kids, the other is a gift. Thank you for visiting! Happy holidays! Maria
