| Our Kindergarten Team plus One has a progressive dinner every year. This year it was my turn for the main entree-chicken pot pie. Everyone outdoes themselves and we have a great time! |
 |
| My girls through the years... |
 |
| The Santa collection that I started when they were babies. |
 |
| We hung ornaments from command hooks in the archways this year. I wish I had stock in command hooks... |
 |
| Our manger scene-my mother bought the figures as a wedding gift for us in 1989 and my father-in-law made the manger. It is a treasure to us. |
 |
| Delaney drew the nativity scene on the canvas a few years ago. |
 |
| Delaney and I made the trees this year and glittered the houses. Simple and fun! |
 |
| Vintage postcards from my mom and sister that I clipped on to a floral arrangement. |
 |
| Some of our glittered houses... |
 |
| Delaney created these flowers as tags for her gifts to friends. She is soooooo clevah! |
 |
| A creche from Italy that was in our home growing up. I 've always loved it and am glad to have it on our mantel now. |
 |
| One of the snowglobes that Delaney and I made this year. It was our first time to try these and they were amazingly simple. If you would like the instructions, just leave me a comment and I'll get them to you! |
 |
| A beautiful ornament from Austria that my brother brought back for me. |
 |
| A painting that Delaney made last year in a class that we took-so cute! |
 |
| Delaney's girl scout troop made these nativity scenes from laundry scoops, leftover fabric and Christmas cards years ago. It is one of my favorite things! |
 |
| Shanley painted this as a gift many years ago. These are my most precious decorations. |
 |
| This photo went in the Christmas card this year- that haven't been mailed yet! |
Merry Christmas to you all!
Now it is time for tubs, chaos and re-organization.
Happy New Year!
Beautiful!!! How do you have the time?
ReplyDeleteWell, Delaney makes for a pretty good personal assistant...Other than that all I can say is that I SHOULD be focusing some of this energy on working out...I'm just saying.
