Christmas greetings

From our house to yours. May you enjoy the peace of Christmas and the love of family and friends.

Nativity

We have a version of this beautiful picture displayed in our living room year round. One of my favorites.

How much longer?

Waiting for family to come home or eyeballing squirrels?

Christmas tree toppers

Here's a look at what is on the top of two of our trees :) A twiggy wreath on our main tree in the family room and a poinsettia on the little tree in our front living room.
One of these years I might talk John into buying a white Christmas tree for a our family room because the strong pink walls (a surprise from him and the kids) can be a bit of a challenge to decorate against.

Mammograms and Christmas trees

Mammograms are a necessary inconvenience in my opinion. Had mine this morning at our local imaging center. New technology to boot which may result in another visit just because the new style images often come back looking different to the older ones.
Decorating the Christmas trees are underway. The big one is in our family room and the small ones are in various parts of the house. I love twinkly lights and am making some garlands to go on shelves:)

Brrrr.

The beginning of December has arrived and I guess winter is definitely here. We woke up to a hard frost this morning. The water in our outdoor dog bowl is frozen solid !!!!!! Looks like it is also cold enough in the sunroom for me to be moving the plants into the warmth of the house.
