Christmas

Since I've done nothing really creative but decorate, I thought I'd share a few pictures as my way of wishing you all a Merry Christmas.  


I filled my lantern with Shiny Brites this year, I love it so much at night when it's lit. Not sure how I didn't think about doing this before now!


I also filled an old tool chest with them, and it also glows wonderfully in the evening with the little lights all reflecting. I saw something recently where someone had made ornament holders out of little old oil cans, so I immediately had to try it, as I have a few. I love how it lets me highlight my vintage bells.


My cocoa station moved and expanded this year.


This guy just makes me laugh. 


I wanted to do something with this precious old baby shoe.


A festive scene in my village



 A corner of my kitchen. The snowman usually hangs outside as he's a lantern, but I'm enjoying him inside this year.


Hubby and I went to the Napa Valley for the day Saturday, and there's a store in St. Helena with this T Rex skeleton taking up most of it. We assumed it was a reproduction they bought for god knows what reason, but no, it's REAL. And available for 3.9 million if any of you are in the market for one. 



His name is Roosevelt and he's sporting a sexy gold tooth. We were pretty tempted - if only our house were bigger.



I hope you all have a wonderful and safe holiday season with your families.
