I miss my dad all year-round but especially this time of the year. He loved Christmas and getting his children that special Christmas gift, always something you wanted!! I remember the year that Cabbage Patch Dolls were popular and he managed to get 2 for the youngest girls!!! So sweet!
He bought me my first sewing machine, my first scroll saw, and my first hot glue gun. He knew what I liked!!

I LOVE YOU DAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!! MISS YOU!!!!
