I have 4 pounds of cinnamon-sugar pecans cooking, 2 needlepoint canvases blocking on the ironing board, 2 painted canvases drying, and a pile of presents to wrap and then pack.
Between work, a cookie exchange, the office Christmas party, and friends’ Christmas parties, I haven’t had much time to get things done around here. I did hang my needlepoint mini stockings though.
And these little guys have taken up a lot of my time lately…
I did make time for a little needlepoint surprise for my parents though! I’ll post it next week just in case one of them reads this before Christmas.
I’ve seen a lot of posts lately with Christmas wish lists. Here are a few of the things I asked for…

Lilly PulitzerAdrianna Dress in Turquoise Lock Me Up
By Paige Navy & White Check Needlepoint Ballet Flats
Bissell 3920 Pet Hair Eraser Vaccum (I asked for a sewing machine for my birthday, so it’s only fitting that I asked for something like a vacuum for Christmas!)
And some things I bought for myself…(I never shop for myself!)

Lilly Pulitzer Bikini in Turquoise Lock Me Up
J. McLaughlin Belinda Sleeveless Silk Dress

I found some good things for my family this year too. Thanks to Summer is a Verb for her post on Christmas gifts for men because I found my new favorite store, BD Jeffries. I think my dad will like getting these next Friday morning…

Alright, that’s it for now. Merry Christmas!!!
