~Veterans .... Checking My List .... Special Tree .... Baking ... Andrew Has Left Us~















Send our veterans a card via this wonderful link ~ http://www.letssaythanks.com/ThankYou.aspx

This vintage silhouette is (1) of a mere few that I kept, the other 600+ went to auction. I just couldn't bear to part with it.

Everytime I look at it, it brings back the memories of youth when Mother would tell us 'Santa is checking that list, you'd better be good .....'





This tree we had made special for Joshua's Civil War themed bedroom. It has a true Americana theme ... what young fella wouldn't love it. We leave it up all year in his room. Lights on ....















Chuckle time ~ don't you just love the wee ones when they do something for the first time ....

This is Joshua's first baking experience for Christmas in 1993. We get so tickled as memories flood of that disastrous day in the kitchen ... we had flour, dough & sprinkles everywhere ... he wore as much flour as the recipe called for ... what fun we had.













Just gotta LICK that good stuff ... no wasting here!


















Look Mini, I baked!


















Isn't that ecstasy ... look at those eyes, he's in heaven!

















And the final touches ... so seriously trying to be neat!

MERRY CHRISTMAS & loving fun memories to you & your wee ones.







PS Please pray for little Andrew & his family, he passed away.
