Fall Tree in my Yard

This is a Chinese Dogwood tree we planted years ago. I don't remember it being this color of red in the fall ever. Beautiful!

Roses

Roses from a friend...because I didn't feel good and because she cared.

Iced In

Today was to be the last day of school before Christmas break, but alas! We had an ice storm here in central Indiana. Schools were closed, stores were closed, our county transit system was at a stand-still. Things are melting off now, but it's still not fit for man nor beast out there. Break began a day early!

The Reason for the Season!

I added this piece to my vast collection of Nativities. I bought it as a piece of white ceramic, and did the finish. It is different than any other I have. It just adds a special touch of Christmas to my living room.

Oh Christmas Tree!

Here's a few of my favorite ornaments on the "family tree."

Ornaments Galore!

There were lions,and tigers, and bears, Oh my, and ballerinas, and nutcrackers, and santas, and shoes, and fans, and angels, and sheep, and cows, and horses, and about every imaginable ornament you could possibly think of. Wow! I love Hobby Lobby at Christmas time. (Or any other time for that matter.)

Christmas Chaos

Today, "black Friday" my friend and fellow shopping buddy, Curley, and I went to a nearby city shopping. The traffic was beastly, the stores were crowded, and even MacDonald's was super busy. But, the one thing I noticed was that people, for the most part, were kind, friendly, and patient. That was pleasant. It made shopping more fun.

Curley had to stop in at Sam's Club, and I tagged along with her. I loved this tree. Fore some reason it caught my eye. I found out, that if you have the tree already, you can buy all the bows and ornaments in one package for $34.99. Now that's a bargain!

Peace!
