rolling papers

I am working on the "greenery" for the centerpieces. There are made of rolled up magazine and catalog pages. We have tried to choose pages that have alot of green color around the edges so they look more like stems or leaves when they are rolled up. They are just tightly rolled and secured with a bit of glue from a glue stick. Abby and I are both working on the leaves. We are about 60 done and need 150 in total. This is done pretty fast, we get about 20 or more done a day.

Here are the cookies the girls and I made for our election party tonight. There are R, D, O, M and USAs. They stand for Republican, Democrate, Obama, McCann, etc. Abby did the decorating, I think she may have spent more time on the Os and Ds :).

Halloween

Here is how Tamara looked in her Colonial girl costume. It's made from Grandma and Grandpa's bed linens circa 1970's. Isn't it perfect!
