Christmas Tales

 
 
Hello everyone!
 
I have missed visiting you all here
and can't wait to begin a new year with you all!
 
I wasn't here much around Christmas...but I did get a chance to peek in on you now and then.
 I wanted to just give a glimpse of my Christmas...
in photos and short stories.
 
 
Our annual Christmas season drive up to Airport Hill
to  feast our eyes on all the homes that were lit up for Christmas.
I believe we went about 3 times this season.
One or two streets were actually lit up with candles inside little white bags all alongside each of their lawns..it was gorgeous!
 
 
Christmas tree hunting is one of my favourite things!
 
 
Hand sewn gifts for my sisters..
 
 
while enjoying many Christmas songs on my laptop.
 
 
December birthdays and our little grandson Brandon ...
gazing at his home-made smore
 
 
and presents under the tree
 
 
The simple beauty of a Christmas tree...
and its fragrance...intoxicating.
I love fresh Christmas trees!
 
 
Calm moments by the tree
 
 
Pondering on gifts eternal...
Thank you Jesus
 
 
Baking up some Christmas
(cranberry banana loaf with glaze and walnuts)
Yum and healthy!
 
 
Christmas morn and  festive"eggnog"
 
 
 Gifts opened... 
 
 
 
I found these Mr & Mrs mugs at our local Christian book & gift store,
and I was thrilled to give them to my "Mister"
;)
They are beautiful, with a message of love inside.
I can't wait to drink from mine too!
 
 
 Our sweet daughter loved her "hand-knit" scarf the best!
I am so happy she does!
 
 
Knitting...where have you been all my life?!
I have fallen in love with what two knitting needles and a pair of hands can create!
 
Ok ...I know I've shared alot in this post,
but I have more to show and tell...
I'll be back soon for the rest of my Christmas story.
Love and hugs to each one of you....
I hold you close in heart.
 
Hugs & kisses,
Deborah xoxoxoxo
