Brrrr.... winter is on it's way

It was pretty darn cold here the last week and definitely feeling more like winter than fall most days. The winter and Christmas kits are hitting the digital shelves, so out come my winter and snow photos from last season.

all of the next projects are done with a new kit by Saxon Holt and Tracey Monette at Scrapbook-Elements today- it's called Winter Frost.

and a set of hybrid Christmas ornaments that I designed for a little (or should I say big?) project for the Petite Tap ensemble to hand out to the attendees of their holiday dance programs. Myself and another mom and several of the girls from the group sat in the hall during most of the dress rehearsal last night and cut, glued, punched and stamped while lots of people stopped to ask what we were doing. We didn't get them all done, but we made pretty good progress. Renee and I will sit in the hall again Tuesday night during class and keep working on them.

and just because..... I found this photograph when I was looking through all of my winter pictures- a little 'flashback' to Halloween 2002. Can you believe how little Beth and Carissa look in this photo? and how little the tree and bushes in the front yard are? The pink coat that Carissa is wearing in this photo belongs to Sarah this year ;) We haven't had a good snowfall like that yet this year, but there were a few small flakes drifting in the air on Tuesday morning.
