Christmas presents

Santa was very good to the boys this year… a Thunderbird 3, a Lego convertible and some rather awful action-man transformer thing that my 3-year old just adores…it’s next to him as he sleeps tonight… :)

And this….massive!…pretty impressive-looking Lego Star Wars troop carrier for my Alex. This was actually an early Chrissie present that he got a few weeks ago when he had chicken pox and was quarantined at home. It took him three days to build it…but he did it, totally by himself…he’s only five. He’s so very very proud of it.

And this is something that I’m very proud of, a beautiful album for my mother-in-law of photos of her grandsons. My clients love these too, and I have such a hard time letting go of them once they’re all assembled…so beautiful! I didn’t want to give up this one either :). But I will definitely make up another one for ourselves. They hold 20 5×7’s and are hand-made with soft leather and thick, luxurious matted pages.

And here are some of the photos of Alex and Timmy (and their Dad!) that went into Grandma’s album…

    Gorgeous idea with the album - I’m sure she loved it! Don’t you just hate boy toys! There are definately no barbies or girly toys in my house either!

    Fran, Merry Xmas. Such lucky boys with their xmas toys and Im so jealous of those albums, they are just gorgeous and what a beautiful gift for family. Make sure you do one for yourselves…its so easy to forget to find that special time just for you! You have captured some cherishable moments of your boys to fill those pages. Gorgeous.
