Well, Christmas will soon be upon us again. My how the time does fly. It just seems like a few days ago I was wiping noses and changing diapers ... now I am working and trying to keep everything done.
Life does sometimes seem complicated and busy. But still yet Christmas is my favorite time of the year. I go to great lengths to make sure that everything gets decorated. Inside the house, outside the house.
Last year between jobs I had 3 weeks free. During those three weeks I decorated everything that would not move! I had several new things (well, new to me but these things are special they belonged to my Mom.) I put up Mom's wreath, Christmas balls that she had made for each of her grandchildren and the "Mopsie" family, the church that was given to me at her funeral and combined this all with the picture that Friendship bought for me when Mom passed away.
These were Mom's Santa & Mrs. Claus ... I put them up along with her little tree in the dining room and combined it with all he icicles that she had collected throughout the years.
I helped her collect these over about a 10 year peiod of time, she loved Angels, Icicles, & Snowmen!
I made this for Mom several years ago ... I cried when I put it on the tree.
