Merry Christmas!!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!! I can't its two days after Christmas already! I can't believe it almost 2018 either! Anyway, since it's still the Christmas season I am going to share some of my families tradition and some of the gifts I received!

Traditions:
    ~Every year we make Christmas candy with festive music on. This year we made chocolate and white  chocolate haystacks, peppermint/cherry crack candy, puppy chow (a.k.a. muddy buddies), cake batter puppy chow, and peanut butter balls. Other years we've also made peanut clusters, chocolate covered raisins, or other treats. 
    ~We take a day to take down fall and thanksgiving decorations and put up all of our Christmas decorations. If we have cut our tree we decorate it too! 
    ~I begin playing lots of Christmas music! 
    ~I go shopping like mad, and wrap up them gifts so it's all organized and done right away. OCD Christmas to do listing right here!

SAMME UPDATE~

Okay, so the chiropractor came out on Thursday night, and found out a LOT! Samme had very little flexibility in her poll (for non-horse people: the ball and socket joint where the head fits into the spine, which allows head movement). Which means when ever she moved her skull it cause her extreme pain. Samme had something wrong in her withers (where the saddle sits) and on the right side of her hip. Any time the chiropractor lightly pet over either her withers or hip she would flinch.

Anyway, the chiropractor fixed everything. Samme has to have a check-up in 6-8 weeks again to make sure everything is fully fixed. I was actually able to get on Samme for this first time in 6 weeks on Sunday! I had to test getting on her for awhile but I was able to walk around a little bit! I didn't want to over do it as the chiropractor said to take it very easy. But, Samme is on her way to recovery!!!

And Sara decided to give me a present... so here it is! 

"SIBLING SARA WAS HERE WHILE MISTY LEFT!! HAHAHA ^~^ 
VOLTRROOOOONNNNNNNNN LEGENDARY DEFENDER IS AMAZINNGGG WATCH SEASON 4 ON NETFLIX NOOOWWW!!! Does Hunk finally get a space taco planet?  Is Space dad Shiro really 6 and a half years old, born on leap year? Are Galra furries officially confirmed?! Is Pidge really a fidget spinner?  Is our beloved Keith turning into an actual furrie too!? Stay tuned to Voltron Legendary Defender Season 4 on Netflix to find out!!! Remember kids, use your Gak wisely, not on earth video games; as we have learned, the Castle of Lions has no plug-ins, USB ports, NOTHING! Unless you are Pidge and can use a bunch, and i mean a BUNCH of space technology to make a circuit to get electricity through, your wasting time, energy, and Gak. "

Thanks for reading and hope have a great day!!!!

Recent Sewing Projects!!

Samme is a this moment injured, were not sure whats wrong yet; the chiropractor is coming out on Thursday to hopefully give us some answers! So anyway, once I know whats wrong I will post an update/full information asap! 
Anywho... Samme now has had her horse blanket on for a little over a month now to keep her hair shorter so I don't pull it when I cinch her up to ride in the winter. When I got it it already had quite a few rips as it was a hand-me-down blanket. So, I took the plunge and got to patching it up..... by hand!!!! If y'all don't know I have TERRIBLE wrists so it was all done with a brace and lots of breaks!!! I have multiple stabs with the needle as horse blanket are thick, so are the jeans I used to patch the giant holes. And I was using fishing line to make it EXTRA durable. Here are some pictures of the process.


As you can see I was not exaggerating by any means! There was a lot of work to be done but it is now 100% done!!! YAYAYAYYA. But, my wrists were shot for the next 3 days...

Okay, now for the fun project!!! In May of this year I decided to make a ball gown from the civil war era. Quite the feat as I found out. So, after putting it off for most of the summer and beginning of the school year I finally sat down and did it. I had it all cut out and darted and pinned before June so the hard part for me was over. I can officially say the bodice (and for all non-sewers/me: the top half) and the bottom layer of skirt is done! I don't have any pictures yet but as soon as its done enough to try on I will have some pictures. Promise!
I hope you enjoyed the second... (wow, breaking records here) post of the day! Have an awesome day y'all!

Christmas Decorating!!

The day after Thanksgiving we are officially aloud to sing Christmas music!!! Now, of course, the rebel I am, I've already been singing them since the beginning of November when we started Christmas piano music!! So this last Saturday we went and got our tree with our family friends! After about 10 minutes of searching we found one but we decided to keep looking just in case and it turned out the first one was the one!!
 And here are the pictures of our tree finished along with the rest of our house!!

So that is the decorations in our house! I will have a second post coming soon of my most recent projects!!! Hope you enjoyed this shorter post!
