We began the holidays with a trip to Sarah's for
THANKSGIVING!
THANKSGIVING!
That was the beginning of our Christmas celebration.
Sarah's house (and kids) were all "decked out" for the holidays!
We will not be going to Portland for Christmas, so we were
happy to be able to see Sarah's family at Thanksgiving
and get ourselves into the "Christmas Spirit"!
We did a little SHOPPING . . .
. . .alot of EATING . . .
and a bunch of just ENJOYING being together!
There were alot of little ELVES around that weekend!
When we came home we felt like "decking the halls"
of our house too! This is the first year for
THIRTY EIGHT YEARS
that I have not put out our
NATIVITY SET!
Our little house just seems so small and the nativity set so big!
SO THIS WAS OUR SOLUTION . ..
made us this little Mary and Joseph made out of little clay pots.
P-E-R-F-E-C-T !
I think I scared Little Bear when I dressed "Hoover" in a
Christmas ensamble. I found him keeping busy . . .
Perhaps he was writing his Christmas letters?
MERRY CHRISTMAS FROM
THE SOUTHERN OREGON COAST!
