First of all, a little update on the baby situation. We now have a plan! If Elliot doesn't decide to come on his own during the next week...my doc will induce me next Friday (Nov. 19th)! I have made a little "progress" on my own though...so he said I could go before then...who knows...but we'll definitely have a baby by next weekend, yay! I really wanted him to be here (and us be home) by Thanksgiving...so this is great news in my book =)
I also wanted to share a crafty Christmas project I tackled this week. I made a wreath. I found a really great, easy tutorial here . I picked up the few supplies I needed at Hobby Lobby and got to crafting!
Originally I was going to do a fall/Thanksgiving wreath...but figured it wouldn't have much time to be displayed...so I went straight to the Christmas colors!
Anytime I set the wreath down for more than about 2 minutes, Felix thought I'd bought him a new, super-cool bed. Leave it to a cat to figure EVERYTHING is about them! And here's the final product!
I really like how it turned out! Now I just have to figure out where I plan to hang it! I should've taken a few pics on the flower-making process...but the tutorial I linked to is really the best source for that! I plan on making more of these (if I have the time!) to hang throughout the year. You can also wrap your wreath with fabric instead of yarn if you so desire...the possibilities are quite endless.
I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend. I plan on making a few freeze-able meals this weekend if I have time...so we at least have a few homeade meals to pull from once Elliot gets here! Any great freeze-friendly recipes?? Please share!!
