Tomorrow is Nanny's birthday ... Just in case some of you have forgotten... She will be 87 years old... Each year I have either did something for Christmas on her birthday or bought her some Christmas decoration because I never have a clue what to get a woman that has pretty well everything in her life... and if she doesn't have it and want it she would go out and get it any way... so about a month or so ago I was in at Walmart... I am getting to wonder if I am the Dollar Store Queen or Walmart one... since I am in there just as often as the Dollar Store... he, he...
anyway I was in the craft section and found these foam snowmen...

Years ago when I use to actually take the time to do things through out the year instead of the last month I made plastic canvas snowmen with no face... quite like this one and put the boy's photos in them.. giving them to mom to hang on her tree... when I seen these I thought I can do something with these little suckers... and that is what I just finished... To the one person that sent me photos thank you... you know who you are... to the others I went on facebook and took what I needed so I could finish up in time... tomorrow after lunch, Happy Birthday to Nanny singing, eating cake I will give her, her great grandchildren to hang on each side of the door leading into the porch....(photos of the finished product will be posted tomorrow with the rest of the photos of the celebration)....
Because mom is having a hard time to remember who is who these days... I went a few months ago and did a collage of the children.. meaning me and the rest of the family... I would like to make another one in the new year of the grandchildren if I can get recent photos of everyone... but that is a 2010 project... the great grandchildren was kind of a bragging thing for mom and dad...
Any way off I go to bed so I can get up bright and early tomorrow to get things going for lunch time... all have a good one... Joanne
