Sick days ...

are really craft days around here. I know I'm probably creating a couple of hookie-playing monsters, and it's most definitely going to come back to bite me in a few years, but today I embraced the idea of the sick day and totally took it as a chance to stay home and indulge in some projects that we're making for Christmas presents.

The morning started with a lot of little coughs and a couple runny noses and a claim of a sore throat, which may or may not have something to do with the fact that they were up too late last night consuming way too many cookies while swapping germs with 10 + kids under the age of 4 at the cookie making party we had with our neighbors at our house...
Regardless of the cause, the girls weren't up for rough day of pre-school, it can be so demanding afterall, so I let them do this...
But that turned into this...

And so we just gave up being sick, and did this....

But I can't show you what we made yet, because they may just be coming your way :)
