T’was the week before Christmas when after cleaning the house........

Cardiff girl got overexcited and had to be taken out.
So we went to garden centre and what to our wondering eyes did appear?
#. 1and2 Xmas glasses.What do you think?Round and tinsley or silver Xmas trees?I don’t want to sway you but I saw Elton John wearing the tinsel ones after I took this picture.l have asked him not to copy me all the time but what can you do?
#. 3and4 Trip to see Les Miserables with the DD and the Rudolph muffin we had before we went in.
#. 5 and6 The sunrise this morning on the school walk.Looks unreal doesn’t it.
Hope all your Xmas preparations are going well,hang in there ladies we are nearly there!

Well, of course Sir Elton would copy you! He's a sucker for fashion specs!

Sunrise is gorgeous -- one small advantage of living in a northerly place!

The fun and the beauty of the holiday season! Those glasses are hilarious. You actually manage to still look great wearing them.

Torontogirl,thank you,l am fond of abit of red at this time of year.
suz,yes it kind of makes up for the darkness at this time of year doesn’t it when you get a sunrise like that.
Windchime,Thank you,l was sorely tempted to get them but they are a-bit fantasy lifestyle .

Here are some of the snowflakes. I knit some but a friend crocheted a bunch.

What a great way to not go stircrazy--looks like you're actually enjoying the season. Yay!

JAileen

CG, thank you, but those snowflakes are all crocheted. My knitted ones are in another window, by the front door. I think crocheted snowflakes are more beautiful than knitted ones, but tatted ones are the best of all. I tatted one and only one. It’s very unforgiving.

Haha, love it! Especially love the sunset swans though

Bonnie

What a wonderful happy holiday post. You are a fun mom! Love the swans with the sunset, too.

This is tough decision, can’t pick a favorite. First pair for Christmas, second for New Year?

Cardiff girl

Veteran

Fashintern,sometimes you ve just got to get out haven’t you.l hope that you are enjoying the season too.
JAileen,I have never tried to make a snowflake anyway but I might just have a go after seeing these and I am sure that your knitted ones are lovely too.
suntiger and Bonnie,thank you,the swans were being paticularly picturesque theatre morning weren’t they.
Anchie,good call!

JAileen, on a trip to Germany I bought lots of crocheted snowflakes and stars for little gifts for friends at a Christmas market and they are treasured. Friends would love your knitted ones too.
Cardiff Girl, what fun. You look crazy good in the specs and your red and grey. I want a reindeer muffin. We are attending a play this weekend but they will only have coffee and wine, probably. Your early school walk is gorgeous.

Haha! You are hilarious. Happy Christmas to you. Love your tinsel specs. I must get me a pair. It might relieve the tension in my office! HAHA. You look so festive in the red skinnies too--super cute as always.
