Next I have a set of dollhouse dolls. inspired by Norma Schneeman dolls,

The dolls are small Mamma approx. 10" and daughter approx. 8" tall. Asking $32.99 plus traveling fee for

the set. One set available.

Remember a few months ago I painted my kitchen cabinets black and put down new flooring,

Well it was too much black with with old cabinet handles. I wrapped them in jute for a twist,

which really perked them up. I had went into a habitat for humanity store and found some

really cute white knobs for less that $10.00 for all of the cabinets, I am attaching a before

and after picture, really love the new knobs.

Wonderful Swap Goodies

 I participated in Amy "Bumble Bee Lane"    Christmas Gingerbread swap.

I felt like a little girl on Christmas morning opening my wonderful box of goodies from

Amy.  Amy certainly spoiled me. I should have posted sooner but my daughter

is type 1 diabetic and was in CCU this week with diabetic ketoasidosis, a very serious condition.

She got home today and is still very weak. I am so thankful that the Lord spared her life.

I am emotionally drained but so happy and so thankful that Stephanie is home!!!!

   I want to show you the wonderful goodies that Amy sent me, and she had everything wrapped

so beautifully.  I didn't know that Amy could sew, she made the wonderful bunny, the Santa ornie,

and the gingerbread man. She does awesome work. She also made the gingerbread bowl filler

ornies.  When I was looking at my treasures I saw where she had gotten me a penny rug purse,

that was designed by Karen "My Colonial Home"  . It is beautiful.!!! Karen makes such beautiful penny

rugs and designs penny rug patterns.  

Everything is wrapped so beautifully!

Amy also sent a beautiful Redware mug and Noel pinkeep . She made the gingerbread man and Santa ornie, love them!!!

Love the bird pin  keep also! And wonderful bar of

soap, it smells so yummy!!! Bunny, and ginger ornies Amy made. The penny rug purse designed by Karen.

Some Christmas Decorating

I just can't believe that today is already December 1st. we are on the countdown to Christmas now.

I will share a few photo's of some of my Christmas decorating.  I love Christmas, the celebration of

Christ's birth, the decor, the lights, the music, the hustle and bustle, baking cookies, the Christmas Carols,

the ringing of the Salvation Army bells, the Christmas plays at church, the sparkle in my grandbabies eyes,

the goodness in peoples hearts to help the less fortunate, just so many wonderful things! Wishing you all a

very wonderful Christmas Season!!!

So much to be thankful for!

Yesterday I went to my sisters for Thanksgiving, her and my BIL always make you feel so welcome.

They have such a beautiful home with some acreage and goats and chickens. I have so much to be thankful

 for. I am still blessed to have my parents and sisters. I have 2 wonderful children and 3 beautiful

grandchildren.I am thankful for my husband. And several wonderful nieces and nephews. I have a warm

home, two wonderful jobs,

plenty of food to eat, good health, and freedom to worship, and many wonderful friends, many

are blogging friends.

 I will post a few pictures of our Thanksgiving. Everyone was present except my one BIL that had

to work and my husband, who is on vacation hunting .And my deceased brother,

I think of him especially on holidays.  My family can't all get together on Christmas,

so we give the children who are still in school small christmas gifts on Thanksgiving. My one

little grandson Jake was so excited opening his gifts that he looked at me and said, "Maw it is Christmas"!

What an awesome fun day that I cherish and am thankful for! Family is very important to me.
