So let me introduce myself to the only 6 people who read my blog and that's only because it is automatically emailed to you.
I'm Chelle. Most people know me as the mom to triplets. Yes that has identified me for the past 13 years. And I'm proud of that, but I am my own person too. I'm a crafter! I will try any kind of craft. I don't always master every craft but I'm typically willing to attempt any craft. This is me at 3 AM with no makeup on. Why would I take a picture of myself with no makeup? Well...partially because I'm lazy and I don't want to put makeup on at 3 AM just to take it off again. But also because this year's manifesto is all about keeping it real.
This Christmas season I want to enjoy the little things. Trying to keep it simple and writing my honest feelings during this sometimes stressful time of year. This year most definitely won't be fancy. I will have Greg get one Christmas tree out of the garage with one box of decorations out of 8 or 9. Ashley has already asked to do the everyday advent for each day of December and it's just not going to happen this year. No I'm not being a scrooge. I just don't want to be so overwhelmed this season. Therefore, my Christmas Manifesto is Keeping it Real!
I am so thankful for a couple of ladies who have gotten together and started a crafting night. The first thing we did was make infinity arm scarves. That was pretty cool and I've made 3 of them. So far it's been too warm to wear them just yet, but they are very pretty. Then our next craft was making a wreath. I wasn't so sure about this one, but I loved interacting with adults. And it was actually my first Christmas moment of the season. I enjoyed shopping in the Christmas section for ribbon. We made these early in November and I finished it on my birthday.
Well I'm super tired and feel like I'm no longer making sense, so I'll pick up with more things tomorrow (later on today.)
