Merry Christmas!

My greeting to you today is for peace in your heart, joy in your soul, and generosity to those in need.

 An unexpected surprise in my mail from a fellow blogger. Thank you!
This wonderful marionette Pinocchio came from a fellow blogger too. He fits in nicely with my Pinocchio collection and looks extra swell in front of this quilt.
 A few of you may remember this bag from a couple of Christmases ago. It was a special gift from my son.
I found this cool bag at the Scandinavian festival this year.I love everything about it.

 These short nights I'm burning lots of candles. I'll need to keep this up once the holidays are over. Maybe that will help make the short and grey days of winter more bearable.


Many of you said you wanted to see the tree once it was in the house. It's the biggest tree we have ever had.  I am enjoying it immensely!





Love to you all!

    I love your tree! We also have tiny flags on our tree - only they're the Norwegian flag. I love your lit up scene - the picture right before the tree. Very neat! Merry Christmas with love back!

    Great Santa quilt--lovely!
    That Pinocchio is wonderful! What a thoughtful gift.
    You have some beautiful decorations to light the dark nights.
    What a handsome couple--the last photo, at least. : )
