Build a Snowman!
Yes, it is a real snowman! The weather was beautiful today in our cold northern climate and the snow was sticky enough that we could roll ourselves a snowman.

New Year Remodel Coming Soon!
I had a little time off over the Christmas Holiday and when I had spare moments I used them to do a bit of reading on XHTML and CSS. My plan is that by the end of March I can create a new look for justbuildstuff.com. One of the books that helped me learn the most was Head First HTML with CSS & XHTML

The wood came with a book about carving called Art & Technique of Scandinavian Style Woodcarving
Happy New Year!
Happy New Year to all of our readers. 2008 is going to be a great year. Look for some big improvements here at justbuildstuff.com.
Fleece Blankets Too!
The previous posting was about making a fleece pillow with a snowman theme, this posting is just to display a fleece blanket that my sister made for my daughter. It turned out great, and it is a much more sentimental gift when you know how much time and effort went into making it.
