Hazel, No Peeking!

I am usually a HUGE stickler for the Christmas rules, ie. no peeking, searching or talking about presents. A little shake is authorized, but beyond that you're asking for trouble. Today I am making an exception. I just finished painting a set of table and chairs for Hazel and I am so excited about them! So everyone but Hazel is allowed to peek, she still has to wait until Christmas.

Don't even ask how long it took.  But Hazel earned it. Little Cinderella was put to work today cleaning Toots' house.

In other news, Khloe celebrated her 15th birthday today! We can't believe she made it! Let me put this in perspective: I was in third grade when we got her. I still remember sitting in the bleachers at an elementary school track meet in Aiea when my parents surprised me with the cutest puppy in the world. Crazy!
