Are you Ready???

Are you ready???  I certainly am not!

  I was able to make a few cookies for Santa...

And wrap a few presents...


(Thank you to the lovely Linda from Robin's Egg Blue for the inspiration... Visit her here for lovely pics!)

The tree's are all done...



The rest of the decorations are out.





The glasses are all decorated...



But I need to take the time to say...



Happy Birthday to Jesus, the true meaning of Christmas!

    Everything Looks Beautiful ~ I am sitting here watching Bing Crosby's "White Christmas" My Favorite Movie of All Time..... Only thing on the list today is to fix the Stainless Steel Shelf that almost came crashing down in the Kitchen.... the Molly pulled out of the wall, but I heard it going & caught everything before it actually feel ~ but that too will wait till after the Movie.....
    Have a wonderful weekend

    Hi Kate, I was over here last night and I thought I left a comment I guess I was side tracked by the Robins Egg Blue. Well, gee, I meant to leave one so I will just say that it all looks wonderful, but that Santa face looks just like the crackly cookies, Yummy! Hope you are having a wonderful weekend!
    hugs,
    Debra

    Kate,
    I laughed at your comment, 'keep it under raps', about the giveaway. You crack me up. Where did you get the REB wrapping paper?
    Thanks for entering dear lady!
