So my SS Package has been here for at least a month. At the time I had a extremely messssssy quilting room, so the SS Package did somehow get buried...BUT I found it and thought who would know right 
. Well I would...So I said SELF get busy busy busy so as not to be tempted
. Well here is what I kept busy at: Made 5 quilt tops. The twister is quilted and finished, the rag quilt of course is finished lol I even embroidered a few blocks on it, the Heart quilt (name:Bali Love Song found at www.hoffmanfabrics.com 56x56) mine is slightly bigger. It is going on my longarm in the next couple of days. Then theres the baby heads, it is still just a top. The 5th one is one that just needs the top and bottom borders put on so won't show that....So as you can see I have been very very good and not shaking my package

I'm glad "MOST" of us have been good. I too have been keeping myself busy. Today I have to make a birthday cake for my DDIL. Her birthday was yesterday but she was in NY seeing the Rockettes, so I promised I would make it for her today. Than I have to bind a quilt and sandwich and quilt the last flannel/fleece quilt for Vermont. So all that will keep my mind off the nice package under my mini-tree.

I think we need to pack up our tents, snickerdoodles, Christmas Music, and head on over to your mailbox. You shouldn't be camped there all by yourself. I'll bring my pups along to keep us company and protect us. Heidi has been looking for an excuse to wear her new coat.

ya know the bible doesnt say ya have to sing pretty, it just says to make a joyful noise
Psalms 100:1-2, Make a joyful noise unto the LORD, all ye lands. Serve the LORD with gladness: come before his presence with singing.
So sing your heart out

It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Ev'rywhere you go;
Take a look in the five-and-ten, glistening once again
With candy canes and silver lanes aglow.
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas,
Toys in ev'ry store,
But the prettiest sight to see is the holly that will be
On your own front door.
A pair of hopalong boots and a pistol that shoots
Is the wish of Barney and Ben;
Dolls that will talk and will go for a walk
Is the hope of Janice and Jen;
And Mom and Dad can hardly wait for school to start again.
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Ev'rywhere you go;
There's a tree in the Grand Hotel, one in the park as well,
The sturdy kind that doesn't mind the snow.
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas;
Soon the bells will start,
And the thing that will make them ring is the carol that you sing
Right within your heart.

It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year
By: Eddie Pola, George Wyle - 1963
It's the most wonderful time of the year.
With the kids jingle belling,
and everyone telling you,
"Be of good cheer,"
It's the most wonderful time of the year.
There'll be parties for hosting,
marshmallows for toasting and
caroling out in the snow.
there'll be scary ghost stories and
tales of the glories of Christmases
long, long ago.
It's the most wonderful time of the year.
There'll be much mistletoeing
and hearts will be glowing,
when loved ones are near.
It's the most wonderful time of the year.

Joy To The World
Joy to the world! the Lord is come;
Let earth receive her King;
Let every heart prepare Him room,
and heaven and nature sing,
and heaven and nature sing,
and heaven, and heaven and nature sing.
Joy to the earth! the Savior reigns;
Let men their songs employ;
while fields and floods,
rocks, hills and plains
Repeat the sounding joy,
Repeat the sounding joy,
Repeat, repeat the sounding joy.
No more let sins and sorrows grow,
nor thorns infest the ground;
He comes to make His blessing flow
far as the curse is found,
far as the curse is found,
far as, far as the curse is found.
He rules the world with truth and grace,
and makes the nations prove
the glories of His righteousness,
and wonders of His love,
and wonders of His love,
and wonders, wonders of His love.

Good grief! They don't call me the blondeslave for nuthin' and I really ramped up the clueless factor this time. This is my first secret Santa with this group. I dutifully(with a bit of prompting) got my package out on time but I had NO IDEA all this was going on. I just stumbled on this thread today by accident when I was searching for something else. I do believe I deserve the bonehead award for this one. Anything really important I need to know? I'll never get through 318 pages...sigh...
