Merry Christmas to all!

Merry Christmas to all my sweet friends! Hope you share all the joy in your heart with everyone you meet! A Baby changed everything.

Tea Tree

My family always knows it is that time of

year when they see me dragging the black

bags up the stairs (groans from the background)

I have 3 trees that stay decorated and this
is my favorite!

This is my tea cup/teapot tree

It sits in my alcove on an antique table.

It is cold in that room in the winter so

I don't get to have my tea in there as

often as I would like; this tree stays up

until February.

A Merry Christmas To All!

My collection of nutcrackers waiting for friends

to arrive
Table set and ready for guests!

Wish you could have been here to share a cup of
tea with me!

What a wonderful teaparty we had at my house this weekend!

May your cup always be full of love and kindness.

Have a beautiful Christmas!

Thanksgiving!

A very Happy Turkey Day to all my wonderful blogging buddies! I hope your day is all warm and fuzzy with lots of family, friends, great food and your favorite cup of tea!

God Bless,

Brownie tea party

A Tea-party for 12 Little Brownies
Trying tea for the 1st time.

What a beautiful party hat!
They each decorated a sweet cupcake
and made a fun craft!

Waiting for all the friends to arrive

Before the party began!

This was the place-setting (including a purse party favor with

a pop up candy bar inside!

swapped white box

Hi all! Last night we had our quilt meeting with our (round robin) white boxes in hand and ready to swap. Everyone placed their box on the table open, so we all could get a peek at everyone's block (picture to your right). Wow, some of those blocks were awesome! I did a Christmas/snowman block (picture at your left). Even though I won't get it back until March it will get a lot of use in the years to come. I am so excited and will keep you updated. Oh yeah, did I mention the white box I picked up held inside a beautiful star block? Now I have to figure out what I want to add to this already perfect block; hmmm...what to do?

How nice it is to come home from a crazy day, check the mail and find a sweet little package in the mail box waiting for me! Thank you Lisa "my blogging friend" what a wonderful surprise to find so many fun things inside! Can't wait to try some pumpkin spice tea. That was so sweet of you! You did not even know that it came on my birthday!
