A Few Favourite Christmas Things


Whether it is the touches placed about a home, the Merry Christmas from a stranger, or the look in the eyes of the people you hold most dear...

Christmas has a way of making even the simplest of things special and treasured.
                               

Sharing a few Christmasy glimpses around my home with you...
                                    please come in..                               


The reason for the season...
                                                  

These happy snowman are the closest thing to snow we'll be having this year..Very mild temperatures are setting new records..

Don't you love cards?
 Especially the ones that arrive in the mail a few weeks early..so special.

We have the tree beside our steps in our rec room..
                                            


It's not fancy, but is filled with sentimental treasures..


A simple display on an end table...


My kitchen window. I added a string of lights after I took this photo:)

A display behind my couch. The Christmas Box Collection by Richard Paul Evans is a favourite book of mine..
                                                               

Baking...Every year I bake cinnamon buns for Christmas morning...

My spontaneous nature seems to go into over drive at Christmas time...I love to prepare little impromptu gifts for whoever comes to my mind..
                                                 



  This is ginger honey chex mix  nice to give for gifts in a jar or tin.                            



I must wrap this up...no really I have some wrapping still left to do..shhhh!
It's okay I'll make a nice cup of tea and listen to some Josh Groban I think...


                                     Please listen to this song...It echoes my heart...
       


                                          Merry Christmas, Good night!

  5. Just catching up on your posts, Lucy. The cinnamon buns look so yummy. I love the white ceramic tree. I had one just like it, only with red lights. I gave it away many years ago, and I wish I had kept it. Your home looks cozy and welcoming, Lucy.

    love, ~Sheri
