Holiday Home Party Hosted by Karla's Cottage

Karla has done it again! She is hosting another party :) I thought I would come to this party too!

So, welcome to my home this holiday season! I have already posted several favorites in my home during this month. Here are a few more things in my home that I love! This is in my breakfast area. Here are my kitchen Christmas towels :)

Next, I love this plate. I don't know if you can see the angel or not, but it has an angel on the plate. I love the verse that is on the plate! "Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow". I love it! More angels... I love angels! Our Christmas tree! We did our tree in colored lights this year - there are lots of memories on our tree! All of the ornaments are from my husband's childhood and my childhood and of course all of our children's ornaments! :) Bandit even has his own ornament :)The stockings were hung by the chimney with care...

I have enjoyed this party! Happy Holidays from our family to yours!

Patiently waiting...

Happy Hump Day! I thought I'd do a post to kill some time - I am waiting patiently for the doctor's office to open. (Actually I have been pacing the floor.) My daughter was up at 4:00 this morning complaining about her stomach hurting. She has been complaining alot about her stomach lately, but not in the middle of the night. So, I think it is time to pay the doctor a visit. Please say a little prayer for her that everything is ok -

Thought I would share this little corner of my counter top with you.

Here are some apples and berries sitting on a table in my kitchen.

Isn't this the cutest little red bird???? :)I hope that Elizabeth feels better tonight. We are going to grill steaks - today is my wedding Anniversary!!! 9 years today! Happy Anniversary Chris! Time flies when you're having fun!!! :) Hope you enjoy your Wednesday.

Jen

UPDATE: I appreciate all of your comments about Elizabeth! I appreciate all of the prayers :) She is doing much better. She has a problem with her belly, but we are getting it under control. Hopefully in the next couple of days she will be good as new :)

Little Table...

Hope you are having a great weekend! I have shopped and wrapped all weekend~ I have enjoyed it though. I am so glad that my husband and I have just about finished all of our shopping. This probably sets a record for us! Now, we will be able to just enjoy the rest of the season without having to worry about fighting all of the traffic and crowds to find that perfect gift.

This little round table is in my Family Room. I love my small, but tall white snowman and my candy dish - it also has a snowman on. Let it snow, let it snow. I don't see any snow the Alabama forecast though :)

Here is a closeup of the white snowman! It is a tea light :>)

See my little cany dish with the snowman. I love it and the Andes mints in it too... mmmm....

I hope you have a great Sunday!

Santa's Coming to Town

Happy Saturday! I am exhausted! Chris and I shopped non-stop all day! We are taking a little break right now. I guess I will get started wrapping presents in a bit, no better time to get started! I thought I would share a few of the many Santa Claus' that we have around our house. My hubby came with many Santa's when we got married!

Here are some of Chris' Santa's. I have them lined up on the piano!

This Santa below... Chris' Great-Grandfather made - isn't he beautiful? This is the most cherished Santa in our house! :)

Here is an old train that my Grandmother gave us a couple of years ago!

These are a couple of Santa ornaments that are on our tree!

Here is a Santa that is in the Powder Bath.

It's beginning to look alot like Christmas...

Well, my husband and I shopped all evening and plan to get up early in the morning and get at it again. Hopefully, we can finish up all of our Christmas shopping tomorrow :) It is beginning to look like Christmas around our house! Here is a picture of my breakfast area.

Here is a close up of the ornaments that I tied on with ribbon on the light over my table. :)

Below is a wreath that my Grandmother made many many years ago. Way before I was born :)

Have a good weekend!
