Fa La La La La Ta Da!



Finally. I got Doug's stocking back from the finisher. If anybody has the know-how and desire to finish stockings and other needlework projects here in the Colorado Springs area, you should go for it. You'd be a rich woman in a hurry. I had to pay more than twice as much as i paid in the DC area to have Bode's finished! But she did a beautiful job. Made Bode's look kind of small and sad...Anyway, i'm so happy with it! Here are pictures of the boys' stockings and our mantel and tree (click to enlarge the mantel pic so you can more fully appreciate the stockings and ooh and aaaah and all that good stuff! ;) ).
