Merry Christmas!!

Merry Christmas everyone, hope you are all having a wonderful time, with your family's my girls came over this morning and enjoyed the time with them, I sure miss them being little on Christmas morning.. about 2am on the 26th we are heading to New York to visit my Son and daughter-in-law and the sweet baby, so excited I cant wait… this yr I didn’t get much craft supplies, except for some copic markers I’m wishing now Christmas was a few weeks away, just because I didn’t get any Christmas crafts done, not even any cards working 10 hrs day kills my craft time, when I get home I'm just to tired.. oh well I just start earlier next yr..lol Well I just want to pop in my blog to wish everyone a Merry Christmas.. Hugs and Love Norma Jean The Christmas tree and my Girls My new Copic”s Hubby and Me My sweet Granddaughter!!
