Around here lately we’ve been…
…starting on a quilt that will literally take me months if not years to complete (no exaggeration)…
…obsessing about Disney storybooks…
…packing up the now-outgrown baby toys…
…waking up early to watch NASA’s new spacecraft, Orion, launch on its EFT-1 test flight (which happened last Friday, and was a huge success!)…
…overcoming my hesitations and JUST STARTING some free motion quilting practice…
…enjoying a date night — and our first trip to a Rockets game since before Emma was born…
…Christmas tree shopping…
…Christmas tree decorating…
…Christmas cookie baking…
…and keeping a good 5-foot buffer between ourselves and that scary dude in the red suit!
(Seriously, this is the closest she would get. And yeah, she chose that shirt. Hey, it’s a holiday…just maybe not the right one!)
p.s. Most if not all of these photos were originally posted to Instagram. You can follow me there if you like!

I’d stay away from that scary person too–she doesn’t exactly exude the spirit of Christmas! And I love your tree. Yay for real trees.

That last photo is just the best! Better than if she had gone right up there.

I know, right? A keeper for sure! 🙂

I like how Emma is looking intensely at the Brio track in the photo of the decorated Christmas tree. +1 for a future transportation planner! 🙂

She’s been playing with her train track a lot lately! Hooray transportation.
