You’re invited to the first ever Sisters Christmas Open House!
Saturday, December 5th, 2:00-7:00 pm
Monica’s house– 1495 N Forbes, Lakeport
Emily and I have been making beautiful gifts for you to purchase during our open house. Below are photos of just SOME of the items we will be selling. Prices will range from $7 to $25. Come anytime between 2 and 7 pm, but remember once an item is sold out, it’s gone for good! Some items are one of a kind so arrive early for the best selection!
Click on each picture and read about the item in the comments.
Please bring a friend! Spread the word! This is the ONLY opportunity to get these items. We hope to see you there!
Noah with wide-eyed wonder: Bella, did you know tigers are CATS?
Bella nods.
Noah, grinning: Don’t you sink dats SO funny?
Bella looks around, clearly a little put out, and shakes her head no.
Noah a little shocked: It IS funny, Bella. Tigers are CATS!
Bella shrugs and moves on with her life. Guess the wonder of things is lost because she’s 6 and has known for years that tigers are cats.
Typical guy/girl convo happened between my two kids:
Noah: Bella, when you wear dresses you look pretty!
Bella: When I don’t wear dresses do I look pretty?
N: When you wear dresses you look pretty!
B: But when I don’t wear dresses do I look pretty?
N: Uh….you look kind of pretty. <long pause> I mean, you look really pretty!
He’s got about 12 years to figure out that that second response should have been the first response!
Friends,
Emily and I are hoping to do an open house near the begining of December. We’re selling bags, purses, her famous rolls, some Christmas decor, etc. We’ll keep you posted as to when, where and what we’re selling. Are you interested? Let us know so we make sure we get the info to you!

P.S. The photo is of the purse I made myself. There will be similar ones sold at the open house. They make great gifts!
So I am realizing that if I really want to sew some Christmas gifts I need to make a weekly day set aside just for that…or it’ll never happen. I’m thinking Fridays. We’ll see though.
Any suggestions on how to get to your sewing projects or other hobbies? And what are some of your projects?
I personally hate halloween. I don’t see the point at all! Of course, I don’t see some of the points of Christmas either, but at least there isn’t any scaring of people for Christmas.
Anyway, since I’m sick and the kids are sick we’re staying home tonight and Eric is handing out candy to trick or treaters. We’ve only had two. The second one was a little tiny boy who was wearing a hockey mask and carrying a machete. Hmmmm…. When Eric opened the door the little psycho killer yelled out in a cheery voice “Happy Halloween!” When Eric said he was giving him nerds and a peanut butter cup the kid cries out with joy “peanut butter! COOL! Thanks!” and runs off. So funny!
And now my kids are eating a piece of candy. Noah chose the Nerds but can’t seem to remember what they are called. So far he’s referred to them as “Narwalls” and “Nermils.” Ha!
