It was fun! 

Happy Birthday, Lynn!!

Our Dear LynnInVA has a birthday today.  Let's celebrate with our friend.  

We hope you're adjusting to life in Colorado.  At least people there know how to drive in snow!!  Just remember to brush off your entire car.

Lynn, we celebrate you on your birthday, and wish you a wonderful year ahead!!  Now let's have some cakes!!  The ladies have been baking for days.

We can't celebrate a December birthday without some yummy holiday drinks! 
Cheers, friends!

Have a great day Lynn!

Let take a mid-month breather

I think I need a day to wind down. I suspect many of you do as well. Let's take a few moments and just relax. Reality can wait for a bit. 

Getting Into The Holiday Spririt

 This year many of us are having a difficult time getting into the holiday spirit.  I'm putting one foot in front of the other, and doing what feels comfortable.  We put up our tree yesterday and trimmed it with all of our decorations.  You can see we need a new tree-topper-- the angel's lights finally blew out after 20 years!  

I enjoy looking at each ornament and remembering where they came from or who made them.  I picked up this fun pair this afternoon.  Maybe they're a happy sign about our upcoming family vacation!

These two boxes contain vintage ornament which we found in my parents' attic during the cleanout.  This was my share of them!  I'm going to put these on now, but I may need a bigger tree!

I hope anyone struggling this holiday season takes time for themselves, and just do what you're up for.  Remember, even in "normal" years, the holidays can be hard enough.  We'll get by with a little help from our WTIOC friends.
