Oh Boy I have the stuffy head, watery eyes, sore throat, sneezing and runny nose.  This just stinks.  I hope all it is, is just allergies.  But I can tell you I will not have a hard time sleeping tonight.


A couple of weeks ago Joyce from http://youngbydesign.blogspot.com/ and I had our Christmas exchange lunch.  These are the gifts she gave me.  We both joined the Christmas exchange at Cheryll's http://stitchingcubbyhole.blogspot.com/  It is so much fun and I can not wait for the December date when we can open our gifts.  Joyce and I are talking about meeting for dinner for our exchange.


Joyce is so creative I love your wrapping Joyce.


Instead of tissue around my gifts in the bag she wrapped them with this wonderful fabric.  


Thought you would like to see how my Santa bag is filling up.  Oh so much goodness.


I won an apron from Sue at http://countrypleasures.blogspot.com/ This is the beautiful apron Sue made for me.  I just love it Thank You so much Sue.  Just take a look at the purple rick rack and purple trim.  This apron is bright and cheery it made my day when I opened it.


The pocket has the cutest gingham in it.  Sue you did a great job.

Well tomorrow there will more Houston Quilt Festival.  David and I went on Wednesday night and I meet the nicest people.   Can not wait to go tomorrow after work.  I just want to see everything. 

Hope everyone is enjoying this nice wheather.   We are finally getting some cooler wheather here in Texas I think today it has been in the 60's  Yeahhhh!

    Donna... I hope you get to feeling better real soon! I've been having some sinus problems as well. We had our first wet day today so I think mine's because of the weather change. I think summer is finally gone here! :) I can't wait to see what all your Christmas presents are! How fun! :) Your apron is awesome! Sue really outdid herself! The gingham is my favorite part. Have fun at the quilt festival! Hope you're feeling better by then! Take Care! :)

    Oh my sweet friend I hope you feel better. I guess we have been hanging out together too much, I am sick too. Just came back from the clinic and getting meds. Two ear infections and a sinus infection. Drawing a hot bath as I type. Call ya later this weekend!
