Joy to the World!

It's Christmas Morning!


Santa arrived in the wee hours when Hubs and I were nestled in our cozy bed.

 
May your Christmas be Merry and Bright!
*********

My children are not with us on this special day. They are grown, and live too far for hot chocolate visits. I almost didn't decorate this year. Do you know the feeling? Hubs lugged in 25+ bins and I sorted and smiled at Christmas memories. I have so many cute things. I do love Santa...especially the bright vintage red Santa of my youth.

Merry Christmas everyone. The Lord has blessed us.

Merry Christmas One And All!

A Savior is Born!

A Baby born to save the world.

This vintage nativity belonged to my mom when I was a little girl. It brings very good memories to me when I set it up. Simple and sweet.

The nativity was such a mystery to me when I was little. We didn't go to church and I was so curious about God. My mother told me the story of that special night. I remember playing with this nativity and begging to set it up each year. I loved to unwrap the little figurines and arrange them again and again.

My hutch is filled to the brim with pink and green depression glass. My sweet sister-in-law gave me lots of the green a few months ago. I love to play with it.

Let it snow, tiny village. I'm hoping for snow too.

My mother's glittered deer.

Jesus is our Good Shepherd.

Tomorrow I will post my Santa Claus room.

Hugs, Patti
