Our friends, Derek and Elizabeth Hawk, welcomed their newest little addition to their family yesterday… just in time for Christmas!

Merry Christmas to all our friends and family!

The first item I sold was a pretty pink rag blanket:

Peter and I decorated our little apartment for Our First Christmas.  Thanks to Mom Beninate for all the cute decorations! To see more pictures click here.

Yesterday we picked up our Christmas tree, and today we set it up and decorated it!
