Now that all the Christmas gifts have been opened back in Texas, I can show folks what keeps me busy during the day in North Dakota as a medical travelers wife:  This year it was crocheting.

| Calin's |

| Nina's and a poncho for her doll |

| Rylee's | 
These aren't much in the way of gifts, and there are older grandkids that, let us say, get really un-excited when they get a handmade gift, so there had to be some cash, too.  I looked at buying cards to put the money in, but that just didn't seem like much fun.  Then I found my solution: 
|  | 
| Little Kids | 
|  | 
| Big Kids | 
 | 
 | 
 | 
 | 
 | 
 | 
 | 
 | 
Then  you box them up by family for shipping. 
|  | 
| Christopher's Family | 
|  | 
| Jamie's Family | 
|  | 
| Larry's Family | 
 Toss in an envelope for the parents (one is always a kid at Christmas time!),
 and hope that someone is around with a camera when it comes time to open the packages.
