Day Eighty Four

Early this morning I jumped out of bed to start getting the house ready for Christmas.  I was soon followed by one kitty named Purrfect and about an hour later our daughter Madison got up.  She is quietly working on a puzzle as I work...Back to Purrfect, who is munching on kitty chow and having a good day.  She is definitely a big part of our family.  We love her, she tolerates us.  My Mom once got a card that said "people have servants, cats have staff".  Surely this applies to our kitty cat.

If you read yesterdays post, you know that Maddie created her first storybook and it is all about the cat.  Today I am sharing another fun page that she made.  Remember that she is 12 years old and this is  her first storybook.  She did it all by herself!

This page totally cracks me up!  Ok, we take lots of photos around here, and the cat is a fave subject.  She is just so slow moving most of the time and her markings are distinct which makes for great contrast too.

Today as we get ready for Christmas, there are a few more things to make.  Page prints like this are perfect for gift giving...and did you know that you can print 5 x 7 photos at Costco for about 40 cents?  If money is tight for you this year, consider making a print and putting it into a frame.  Dollar Tree is one of my fave stores, where you can get frames for a buck.  How cool is that?  A custom page, printed and framed for less than $2!   Between the holiday traditions we are packing in today, there will be lots of digital design for last minute gift giving...I hope you have a fabulous holiday weekend and a blessed Christmas!
