:: Hand blown glass balls made by my sister...so glad to have enough to decorate
not only my tree, but also around the house.
~ Her work is simply beautiful ~
:: I fight to keep the jasmine in her proper home year-round except when I need it to decorate around Christmas time ~ then we become old friends.
:: Preparing for a special girl to come home from college for the holidays.
:: My new simplistic gift wrap
:: Our discovery that there are two artists in the family...move over Elizabeth!
This is Sara's final in Art ~ they could imitate any artist and she chose Van Gogh....
I am scoping out a space for it when it returns!
:: our crazy ornaments that one particular friend gives
us every year
without fail!
Simple, useful decorations this year....
SPOILER ALERT- IF YOU ARE FAMILY SKIP NEXT THREE PHOTOS!!!!!
:: My gift idea for this year...
My favorite photos I have taken uploaded into note cards!
Twelve sets and each person will get twelve different cards.
:: Cozy corners clean for the holidays - children playing music
:: Steak dinner to welcome Elizabeth home!
:: Her, smiling, enthusiastic, happy personality - it completes our household
:: Our park across the street from us - so festive for Christmas, I feel no need to ever put lights up when we can walk outside and see this every night!
:: After dinner stroll with Elizabeth checking it out - glad to have her home...
....and she is glad to be home. No more tests, papers or classes for a month....and if goes
as she anticipates a 3.75 for the semester!!!!

I love the photo card ideas! I might have to do that next year. I love the hand made ornaments, you have very talented people in your family.
ReplyDeleteI looked. :) I will pretend I didn't see. Might not be for me, anyway! lol!
ReplyDeleteLove this post- and for some reason I got so emotional seeing Liz in that steak dinner shot. She is so beautiful, and so grow-up. And I'm SOOOO proud of her for her grades! And even more proud at how confident and poised she has become as a college woman. LIZ- YOU'RE AMAZING. And hilarious. :)
Merry Christmas!
PS to all of your artists... I could use some art!!
