Ornaments and Pictures-of-the-Day

Just a short post to share some pictures. I finally finished my February ornaments for the Halloween and Christmas Stitch-a-longs. Nothing like waiting till the last day of the month to do it. I've had the stitching done for a little bit but just tonight made them into ornaments. I love the stitching part but I hate putting things together or framing. I would rather leave that to someone else but can't afford it so I do it all myself. Here are February's ornaments. The Halloween SAL theme for February was Black Cats and the Christmas theme was Reindeer or candy canes.

Since February is over I can share the rest of my Picture-of-the Day pics.
The theme for Feb 22 was 'Handwritten'. These are some of the letters Jerry and I exchanged when he was in the air force and I was still at home before we got married.

Feb 23 theme: 'Favorite thing'. This was a hard one because I have a lot of favorite things. I decided to go with my favorite tv show, Little House on the Prairie. I have them all on dvd and watch them often.

Feb 24 theme: 'Listening to...' This is one of my favorite cds because I love the old songs on it and I love Rod Stewart's voice. I like how he kept the songs the same. I listen to this one a lot.

Feb 25 theme: 'Everyday I...' This was another hard one. I do a lot of things Monday-Friday and some things only on Saturday & Sunday. Aside from showing you my toothbrush or something, there aren't a lot of things I do every single day. Then as I was logging on to Facebook I realized, there is something I do everyday! I check it several times a day. :)

Feb 26 theme: 'Old photo'. My mom's 85th birthday would have been on the 23rd. Since it was still the week of her birthday I decided to use a picture of her. This is from when she was about 12 years old I think. I'm pretty sure it was her confirmation. Maybe her First Communion but I think Confirmation. This is from Belgium where she lived till she was 18 and came here after WWII.

Feb 27 theme: 'Favorite Spot'. My very favorite place to be is Disney World. We have been there 3 times but not since 2003. This photo was taken in 1997, the 2nd time we went. It was their 25th anniversary and the castle was decorated like a big cake. This is a page from my scrapbook.

Feb 28 theme: 'I ate...' This is an apple cake. I got the recipe from Taste of Home. I double the recipe and added an extra apple because we like it thicker and with more apple in it. I ate a piece after lunch today.

I have decided to continue the Picture-of-the-Day into March. This is what the themes are:

The person that made the list has a Facebook page and also a blog if anyone else is interested in participating. I only share mine on my personal page on Facebook and on my blog.

Well, I think that's it for now. Thanks for visiting!
