Santa Claus Is Coming To Town

I love this song. It pompts instant good behavior at my house. I've been singing it at least once a day for a couple weeks now.

You better watch out
You better not cry
Better not pout
I'm telling you why
Santa Claus is coming to town
He's making a list
And checking it twice;
Gonna find out Who's naughty and nice
Santa Claus is coming to town
He sees you when you're sleeping
He knows when you're awake
He knows if you've been bad or good
So be good for goodness sake!
O! You better watch out!
You better not cry
Better not pout
I'm telling you why
Santa Claus is coming to town
Santa Claus is coming to town

Raggy Christmas Tree Skirt with Angels




This one came out very pretty. I used an angel stripe cotton fabric for the top. The center is white cotton flannel, and the back is muslin. Red ribbons are used to tie the open ends together around the tree. It measures 35" in diameter from point to point.

Catie and Nick

Here is my beautiful Catie with her longtime boyfriend Nick. Catie is in nursing school in Topeka, at Washburn University. Nick will graduate this spring with a degree in mechanical engineering from K-State. Don't they make a cute couple?
