Christmas Sunday

My husband says that I observe lots of holidays that the rest of the world is unaware of. For instance, today was Christmas Sunday. For me, Christmas Sunday is the Sunday before Christmas. When I was growing up, I always had a Christmas dress and I wore it on Christmas Sunday. Now as a Mommy, I strive to dress my entire family in co-ordinated ensembles for Christmas Sunday.

Superman had one of favorite outfits I've ever made. It was a Jon-Jon made of the softest baby wale black corduroy. I appliqued a fuzzy snowman on the front of it. It was probably not very smart, but I made the snowman out of fleecy fabric. It was my first attempt at layered applique. I'll have to handwash it, but it's worth it.

Rosy had a beautiful black velvet dress that Grammy Barb had given her. She felt (and looked) like a princess. Rosy is very good to me and never complains when I insist that she get all dressed up.
