Our Christmas Tree!

Thought to share a couple of pictures of our christmas tree this year. It did took me a while to accomplish this, as it's quite busy here with the kids activities in and out of school. Looking at it infront of me it seems too crowded but at the picture looks like still some empty spaces here and there. A few ornaments are from previous exchanges the last couple of years. This year i haven't join any christmas ornament exchange.

Stitched on 28ct light blue linen
DMC threads
This was completed a while back but haven't posted picture of it, sometimes if i finish someting and put it aside i won't bother to take pics anymore.


These are a few i couldn't hang it on the tree. Still a bit bare here with decorations, hope to have some time and inspiration to do more later.




This is the last week of school for the kids, so quite some activities in and out of school. Chris had written down on the list at school that i will prepare some snacks for their x'mas dinner party on thursday evening. On wednesday, it's expected to pick up hubby and Chris needs to go to his guitar lesson and they had a short performance that parents are allowed to watch, i hope his grandma can bring and stay for a while. Also before the end of the week we have appointments with their teachers over their grades or performance at school. Why oh why...during the holidays! Aside from that, a birthday party to attend as well. So, i'm sorry if you won't see me stopping by on your blogs but hope to catch up whenever i get the chance.

Many thanks for all your lovely comments on my last post. Hope the week starting off well with everyone.
