Baxter and Mitsie got the holidays going early this year by finding a box of ribbons. Glitter everywhere.They are definitely mischief makers.

Finally finished the "jewelry exchange" documentation. I traded with Llyn Strong from Greenville SC.

New display. I like the colorful rug with the predominately, blacks and whites. Alot of new work.

I will miss you Mom.

And my cactus bloomed. We walked the beach,

Had thanksgiving, and next thing you know it was Christmas.

It's the eve of Christmas Eve. Ive embraced the season, watched Christmas movies, filled last minute orders, drank alot of Starbucks while out shopping, spent time with friends, somehow I haven't felt as stressed out and crazy as usual, just enjoying the quiet of the night. It's raining and cold outside. Enjoying our little tree with magenta balls. Peace to all.
