Christmas Greetings

It will be a bit quieter and simpler this year, but Christmas has come...

...a real tree decorated just with vintage balls, Snow Babies, and lights...

...the presents {well, most of them} are wrapped and under the tree...


...a little bit of decorating has been done...



...gifts have been mailed, though sadly they will not reach their destination until after Christmas...

...and the Christmas Glogg that was begun weeks ago has been bottled...


Some last minute gift-making & finishing, a bit more wrapping, and some more food to make before 3 o'clock today, and I think we'll be ready.
Thank you to all who have stopped by this year and offered encouragement, kindness, support, and prayers.
I wish you and your families a joyous Christmas and a peaceful and healthy New Year.
~Deb

    Wishing you a very Merry Christmas! Thank you for sharing so much on your blog. I found it this year and LOVE it. Your home is just lovely and inspiring. Could you please explain your method of casting-on for the waffle dishcloths. It's many years since I did any knitting and mine looks really loose and loopy. Kind regards HeatherH

  19. Beautiful photos as always.

    Merry Christmas blessings. I believe that the celebration occurs after the event, so we're still celebrating Christmas.

    Hope you have a wonderful New Year's Eve, New Year's Day and 2009.

    I would love to try the Christmas Glogg now so that I'd know if I liked it to give for presents next year. I read the recipe,but found it confusing. Could you clarify and tell me how you put yours together and the measurements.
