Last But Not Least

My final ornament came in the mail today.  This came all the way from Norway! Wow!


It's from Aimee and it's so delicate and sweet. I just love it!


Ok, I'm already considering what I'm going to do for next year. Can't wait!! Thank you to everyone who exchanged with me. You people Rock!

Sometimes, It's the Simple Things


He played with this simple toy off and on all day long. Thanks to Tonya, Seth, and Stephen for a fun filled day.
Oh, and Tonya...he never did pull the ball off. I was amazed.


Snow!

I awoke to a light dusting of snow this morning. I was shocked. I knew the weather man was calling for a little, but didn't think I'd see any.


Imagine my surprise when I looked out the front door! And I think it's so pretty on the bushes and branches in my back yard.



I guess you could say it's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!!

Another Surprise in the Mail

Oooh, I received another ornament exchange package today and couldn't wait to open it. It was from Tonya, Seth, and Stephen. Mercy!!!


Such a package of goodies!! Beautiful Christmas fabric opened to an original work by Stephen, a beautiful ornament filled with goodies from Tonya, and a packet of herbal tea from Seth. I can't wait to taste it!


What fun this has been! I think this had really made it a wonderful Christmas season for me and I look forward to doing it again next year.

Ornaments in the Mail

Hey there everyone!! I wanted to show you what I found in the mailbox the other day.... more ornaments! Yep, more of the ornament exchange goodies.


This little mitten came from Laura. I can tell how much work she put into it and it's lovely. Thank you Laura!

The next one came from Marissa who is Mrs. Cook's 6th grade class.


Isn't that just the cutest little snowman?! He even has snow inside his little belly. LMW loved both of the ornaments and I had to make sure he didn't damage them while he oohed and aahed over them.
This has been a real happy thing for me...to receive lovely little things in the mail. Thanks Tonya for hosting the exchange!!
