And the count down is truly under way now--
Had a busy day to day--I even did this--
Went down and got Mary her cup of tea--she now has a pain patch and is excited that tonight she is not in as much pain--bless her!!
then did some sewing in the sewing room--am working at putting together the Christmas Wish blocks--have the center done and the border pieces cut!!!!
And then I went to Mary's in the afternoon and had this--
talk about "yummy"!!!!!
When I got home I actually carried this down and did it--
And so I did some "great" stuff today!!!!
Plus I took some photos of some ornaments on my tree---here goes---
I actually painted these two for the kids--but so far I still have them--they were done years--years ago!!!
Dawn's first grade teacher made each of the students one of these--1974(?)--
This is a Hatched and Patched pattern that I feel in love with last year--
A skate that I made out of felt one year -long ago- for son Dan--
One of the kids made this in school--long-long ago--it is just a plastic ring with yarn ties to it and then a piece of pink felt glued onto the back of the ring and 2 wiggle eyes glued inside--
and this is a mouse I made back in 1986 or so and I sold a batch or two of them at craft shows!!!
THIS journey to Di's tree will continue tomorrow so be sure to tune back in then!!!!
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Why does Santa have 3 gardens???????
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
So he can "HO-HO-HO"!!!!!!!!
Have a Christmas cookie or two--or bake some and eat them fresh from the oven--Yum!!! Hugs, Di
PS--Be sure to "pop" over to my workbasket site to read today's thoughts!!!!

I love your ornaments. I have my tree filled with ornaments the kids and I have made over the years. The kids always help decorate the tree and we talk about the ornaments they have made. It's a lot of fun.
WOW--I didn't look at the laptop yesterday and I certainly missed a lot. I am very glad to hear that Mary had a good day! And I love all of your decorations. The ones from the kids are always so cute. I must unbury all of mine when I get home. Your stitcheries look great. Can't wait to see the finished product of Gail's Christimas Wishes. I have two more to do. I am going to trace them and the rest of Verandah Views in a little while and then they will go in my suitcase. I will probably do a few others to add to my pile as well. Now I must go empty the dryer--must be a laundry sort of day. Take Care. L, A-
Happy to hear Mary had a better day. Love all the ornaments. I like to make a new one for the tree each year.
I guess some days you just have to do your chores.
Lots of fun stuff going on at our house. Such cute ornaments. Those Christmas signature blocks are so pretty too.
