puppetmakerThat went about as well as I could have hoped. Caroline had fun. Caroline's party guests, both young and old, had fun. And the house is in not too bad a shape. Caroline made out like a bandit in the presents department.
She still has one on the way from my parents that I think she is really going to enjoy. It is a table and chairs sized for her. No more using the coffee table as a desk. I can remember how much I enjoyed the table and chairs that I had when I was her age. (Later: It arrived and I put it together for her. She loves it. She is currently sitting at the table and playing with the dolls her paternal grandparents got her. Her feet don't touch the ground at this point so this table and chair set has room to grow. The construction is solid and all the parts( bolts, washers, pilot holes) are made to metal. No plastic to strip and break here.)
We did one of the crafty activities I had the parts for. We made Princess Paper Bag puppets. All the girls made this project their own. The puppets were all so different. It was a creative group I had to work with and they listened for the most part to the instructions.
So that part of the year is done. Onto the rest of the Holidays now.
Giants won. Jets lost. Must be Sunday in New York. I really don't think that the Giants are going to make the playoffs. There are too many "if" and "only if this team loses". Yes, yesterday's win was a big one for the Giants but they could find themselves shut out if they don't keep up the pressure.
I am grateful that I can assemble things in a reasonable amount of time
