Family Christmas Boutique 2007

Well another successful year for the boutique. After 15 years we have decided to make this our last year for the boutique. We appreciate those who have supported us and attended our boutique over the years and thankful for those who encourage us to have another next year. Perhaps we'll change our minds, and if that happens then we will certainly let everyone know. Again thank you to the particpants, supporters, and attendees.


"Tis the season for Tamales"


Mom made t-shirts and aprons with designs saying "Tis the season for Tamales". They were a great hit and continue to be.


My Tia Angie made some swags and candle center pieces, and my cousin Rick painted some wood arnaments.


Here are some baskets my dad put together


Mom made the nativity scenes, dad found the snowman at Desert Industries and touched them up with paint, and I added beads around some candles. Talk about TEAMWORK!


On the tree you can see some ornaments my dad and I made.


Dad did a fantastic job on these terra cota lights. It was hard work but a beautiful sight to see.


Some stuff I made


more stuff


My cousin Monique had baked goods such as cookies and cupcakes. She also made her candy cane count down to x-mas strings.


Santa was able to stop by for a bit.
Haleigh was not afraid at all of him.
