Tonight's ornaments represent three generations of babies in my family. The spoon with the curved handle was my father's, the little silver cup was mine, the teething ring was Nathan's. The two card balls I made out of Melany's and Nathan's baby cards...pink for Melany and blue for Nathan. Of course, some of the items aren't really ornaments...but they work well and add memories to the tree! I have been looking for Melany's little silver bracelet to add, but am not sure where I have it stored...I'm sure in a safe place!! I stitched for a while in the early hours of the morning on my current sampler. Then after lunch, I got busy on the ornaments. I have them ready for the last step...so almost finished with fourteen more...then there are two more that are finished differently than these fourteen. I did get the bridesmaid dresses finished last night...so they are hanging and ready for a good steaming before the big day...two weeks from today! I have a little sewing project for Kathy that I have been working on, too. This evening while I worked on the ornaments, I watched the Tullahoma Civic Choir Christmas concert...very nice...so nice that you can watch things like this live stream...one good thing that came from Covid! We are under a winter advisery for VERY cold temperatures...tonight it is supposed to get down to 16° and tomorrow night down to 12°! Brrrrrrrr! Here's the warning that I got:
* WHAT...Below freezing temperatures for 36 straight hours, including bitter wind chills as low as 3 below Sunday morning and single digit lows Monday morning.
* WHERE...All of Middle Tennessee.
* WHEN...From midnight tonight to noon CST Monday.
* IMPACTS...Wind chill values can lead to hypothermia with prolonged exposure.
'Tis the season! To be continued! Be safe! Be well! Be cautious! Stay warm!!!!
