Turkey Time!

Today was a great day. Zoe and I tried to make some special Thanksgiving preparations earlier in the week...

I did the cutting, and she did the gluing and writing.

Today she finished off the personal touch by making everyone a special card or craft.

It was the first time I pulled out these beautiful lace placemats that I'm pretty sure belonged to my great grandma.

We fought with the wrinkles for a bit, but there came a time to put away the iron and get down to more important business...TURKEY TIME.

Fun gifts from Mexico

What a special surprise it was last week when Zoe received her very own Mexican dancing skirt! Our dear friends who live in Mexico City sent this 'big sister' present by way of a friend who was travelling this way.

The best part about the skirt, of course, is how well it spins!

And then for little Maya, her very own beautiful hand stitched shirt!

Too bad she wasn't in the mood for a photo shoot...
