| We wish you all a very Merry Christmas! |
 |
| We may even have a white Christmas...chances are slim for us in North Central Missoutri. We have chances for dizzle tonight but the temps are above freezing. |
 |
| I decided since the girls and their families were here over thanksgiving holiday that I won't be using the good dishes this year at Christmas but maybe I should just get them out and wash and shine them up. I love the look of clean shining glass. |
 |
| This is my new box that I got last week end while in the city. I thought it would go well with my colors in the DR and the wingback chairs...had to have it. I can now hide another in progress project. |

| My cozy little corner of the world. I purchased a new DVD of Jackie Evancho. I read and listen to Jackie...what a relaxing treat! I have refused to let the season control me this year. I have learned to say...Sorry, No Thank You..  |
 |
| I believe Jesus is the reason for Christmas. But people all over the world have celebrated with many different traditions at Christmas and we do put up a Christmas tree and dig out the old ornaments but I don't worship Santa or the tree. I make and buy gifts to give to family and friends. I enjoy listening to Christmas music, sending and receiving Christmas cards, making the sweet treats, and just letting the Christmas season warm and renew my heart for another year. I think it is another excuse to give to others. A time to put those that need before my own wants. A time to gather with family and friends. |
 |
| I love to eat a good meal at the formal dining table with the good dishes and then have a beautiful sweet desert with a cup of hot aromatic coffee. |
 |
| I treated myself to Jan Brett's story book. I love to look at her beautiful illustrations. (handmade mittens, knitting, ) Nana will have a new story book to read to my grandchildren. We pray that everyone all over the world has a warm bed to sleep in, food in their pantry, a warm secure home, good health, and family and friends to share their food and home. May we all have peace and joy this Christmas. God Bless. |
