inspiration

We never planned on being in America this long... Our plan was to leave October 25th! Two months have passed, and we continue to find ourselves adjusting the Plan. We are seizing each day and enjoying each moment that we have in this beautiful place, and with our dear pals.

Now that Christmas is quickly approaching, I wanted to continue our tradition of opening stockings on Christmas Eve....but our stockings are back in China!! So with a little inspiration from Laura & Jill, leftover felt & scraps from mom - this is what will hold our Christmas goodies while in America. Each owl is different in size & eye color, depending on each kiddo. I can't wait to fill them up!

These were so fun to make, and were actually quite simple & relaxing. Best of all, the girls love them!
