Hoping everyone had a nice Christmas and few pics

   It seens like Christmas always comes and goes so fast.I was so glad this year we had a white Christmas that just seems to top it off for me.I did'nt get much of my baking done before but I still am going to do it.Thought I'd share a few pics of my favorite decorations.My crochet mouse family my mom made me years ago I have to say is my favorites of all...

Same family just could'nt make up my mind where I wanted them.

My moving Nativity...

The empty chair where Santa sat looking out the window till Christmas eve.Then it was time for him to go this was his special night with so much to do.Frosty the singing snowman jump up in his seat and did some singing for us lol....Our tree this was the first year we did'nt have our train down because of where we had to put the tree.We really missed it,but next year it will be back for sure....Our sons presents.He wanted to start with the big white one in the back but we told him he had to work from the front first lol...Santa enjoying some cookies before leaving ...

Heres the pic of Santa looking out the window as it was snowing...

Oh and here he finally got to the back lol...

Well thats all for now hope you enjoyed the pics.I am off to look at the pics on the other blogs.I really enjoy looking and reading what everyone else is doing...Wishing everyone a really HAPPY NEW YEAR and God bless.....................Diane

Hoping everyone had a wonderful Christmas and a few pics

    We had a really nice Christmas but it seemed to go by so fast.I'd like to share a few pics with you....

Santas happy !!!!!

   It's snowing I love it.Santa is looking out the window with a big smile on his face.This is his special time of the year.This is an old Santa my daddy bought for my mom at a flea market.He's about 5' tall.It was summer time then around 1990 not sure of exact date.Dad always goes one way and mom the other.He usually just skips through but mom she takes her good old time.Well dad saw this bought it and stuck it in the car in moms seat.Well when she was walking to the car she could'nt figure who was sitting in her seat.When she saw it was Santa she just busted out laughing.
   I get my decorating from my mom.Every year she had poor dad up on a ladder putting lights all around the house outside while she did the inside.He did'nt mind cause he knew this was her thing.Mom and dad were the same age and she passed away when she was 75.So her last Christmas with us she was 74 and dad was 74 when he did all that climbing and outside decorating.They truly loved each other and cared about each others feelings.
   This is just a few of the special memories I have about mom and dad.They are both gone now mom in 93 and dad in 98.
 God truly blessed me with the most wonderful parents.I love and miss them so much but I know I will be seeing them again.
        I also got a few pics of my kittens in their first snow.....

Boo(Black) loves it ,but Mickey's not to sure.lol

All for now have a great day.........................
