Time to

say Good bye to 2009.

I hope you all are prepared for a wonderful and happy New Year.

The last days I heard very good news - a friend is pregnant...expecting the baby in summer.

But I also heard bad news...about an other friend now going seperated ways with her husband...they have two boys I really hope they make the right decision.

And I´m also thinking of our neighbors´boy - a friend of Leon - who´s at hospital since christmas...

And I don´t forget about those who left us this year....

Let´s see what 2010 will bring... let´s hope for the very best!

Frohe Weihnachten - Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas to all of you - I hope you´re going to have some wonderful days!

Snowman at new home

I just had to grab this picture.

Eileen ( Baerenliebe) took this picture of the snowman I made her in his new home.

Isn´t the decoration just GREAT!

I´m really glad she likes him.

(As it took me so long to finish this guy)

Finally a snowman!

He´s finally finished!
This order has been open since september...OMG...I´m so sorry! It should have been finished for Advent...now we´re looking forward to the 3rd advent already...anyway - I did finish him last night!





Today I went to school with Leon and did some crafting with his class.

Now I´ve to hurry ... he also wants me to make a cake for the christmas party at school today...

You belong...

Just can´t get enough of this song...




I guess I´ve heard it before...but didn´t actually really notice it.

We just had it in the Line Dance lesson and learned the dance....



Love it!

Nikolaus

Nikolaus visited us last night!

He took two of the cookies and also the milk is gone...so he must have been in the house!

Yes!

Shoes are filled!

Lucky boys! ;-)

Yesterday Fabian had a little performance at the shopping center...he´s the one sitting in front on the stage. ;-)

Later we visited Berlins famous "Alexanderplatz" looked inside the shopping center...and visited the christmas-market there.

Happy 2.Advent -

Marion

I love it...and I hate it...

Well...that´s it...I love it...and also I hate it...

Yesterday I took the time with the boys for baking.

What does this mean?

I have to shop everything we need...among lots of people who just seem to think Christmas is just tomorrow and there´s no more time for shopping...

I have to prepare the kitchen...

I have to clean the kitchen the first time while the dough is getting ready...

I have to prepare everything to cut the cookies...

I have to help to cut the cookies...

I have to bake the cookies...

I have roll the dough agian and again...

I have to clean the kitchen again...

I have to prepare everything to decorate the cookies...

I have to vacuum-clean inbetween cause Dennis just turned a bottle of decorating granulate...

I have to decorate the rest ...

I have to take Fabian to soccer as time just was running too fast...

I have to clean the kitchen again...

I just feel so ill from nibbling...

And after the boys went to bed I had to bake a cheese cake for the kindergarden today...

Wishing you a happy weekend!

Advent

Happy Thanksgiving

Well..to be honest we do not have thanksgiving over here in Germany but to all my international friends who do have I´m sending my greetings!
We´re preparing for the first advent.
I´m busy decorating the house, busy with taking the kids to swimming school, busy taking them to the dentist, stopping at my PiL´s where Fabian has to prapare for the little Christmas Market next sunday as he´s going to make music there with the other granchilds of my PiL.
Yepp...that´s it...over here. You see as always if it´s coming to the time of the ear everything should get a bit more cozy and slow and calm - to be honest its getting more busy lol.

Teddybaerlinale

Here´s a pic of my "booth" at the Teddybaerlinale.

Thanks to all who visited.

All new bears are now listed on my website http://rusty-prim.de

Feel free to take a little moment and say hello to them! ;-)

Here´s what I got for me! Just like a early christmas gift for myself ;-)

(to clip on the christmas tree - love it!)

Ready for the show...

OK...just finished three more bears today.

But too late to take really good pictures.

They are just ready for the show tomorrow.

So...time to say good night!

time´s flying

I´m really busy in making bears at the moment...but with soccer matches, visits to the dentist, going to the swimming school with the boys...it´s not that easy. Normally the evening is my time of the day for bearmaking...but yesterday I nearly fell asleep at the table ;-)

Anyway...I finished two new bears and took pictures of them yesterday.

Both are - that´s new for my bears - flled with sheep´s wool AND mineralgranulat in the tummy.

yepp...I´m really

working on new bears - as promised!

It´s a sunny day, hubby and the boys went grocery shopping and I took the time to work on a new bear...

Riley...

Hey...wasn´t I busy since yesterday?

;-)

I really love how he looks like and I think he turned out as a real RUSTY-PRIM-creature.

Let´s go on sewing........

snow & bears

Last wednesday we had the first snow!
Well...ok...it was directly followed by rain and didn´t last... but Fabian enjoyed the short time playing in the snow outside.

I have to be busy...it´s just one more week to the Teddybaerlinale and I really need to work on some more bears.
Here´s the result for today..two new bears...and as it was desired..a bit more colourful.

&

I´m still busy and hope I can show some more new ones the coming week...

Have a great weekend!

We had a great Halloween

And I hope everybody else also had!

Here´s a pic of some of our Jack- o- lanterns ...

Here´s one more pic of the decoration...inside and outside...

And here´s just a little peek what we all looked like...

My little Halloween-Cutie arrived today - just in time for Halloween - Thanks again Kelly for this wonderful little guy who already found a place in my Halloween decoration.

Today I finally found those candy eyes...perferct for decoration...

We spend the day in Klaistow on a farm ( I was talking about earlier too) and DH and Leon had fun while climbing in a climbing parcours and the other boys and I enjoyed the pumpkins.
