ANOTHER CHRISTMAS GONE

"ONLY 365 MORE SLEEPS" ...

This is what my friend's little girl said to her on Christmas Morning after they had finished opening their presents from Santa .... priceless!

We were very late putting up our Christmas Tree this year.

Our usual tradition is the 1st December ... but ... this Christmas was just like the rest of 2006 ... a bit of a rite off!!

Anyway the tree did go up and we had lots of fun along the way ...

some Christmas Ball juggling

a time for Reflection & Tradition

(I hand painted this Christmas Ball for Blake on his 1st Christmas,

as well as one for my DH & I) ... these are the last things we hang on

the tree every year, at the top, before the star goes on)

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE
