"I heard the bells on Christmas day; their old familiar carols play, and wild and sweet the word repeat of peace on earth, goodwill to men!" ---Henry Wadsworth Longfellow |
"When Christmas bells are swinging above the fields of snow, we hear sweet voices ringing from lands of long ago, and etched on vacant places are half forgotten faces of friends we used to cherish, and loves we used to know." --Ella Wheeler Wilcox |
Well, my lovelies we have only 6 days until Christmas.... I am packing every day with preparations and sneaking in some fun time as well.... I spent the whole day at the Florida Mall Yesterday... (not the fun part) It was very crowded, but the store my daughter needed to go to was there, so we went. The clock is ticking so I am off......

Thank you for visiting heart for Home-making and for your comments. Your blog is beautiful, and I am following your posts. I love the header picture. Merry CHRISTmas to you.
ReplyDeleteThanks Amy Jo. I know some get very squeamish when painting an antique is mentioned, and I used to be one of them, but these were originally painted when we got them, so we just stripped them and have lived with them for around 40 years. We're sending them back to their roots!..Have a wonderful Christmas with your family..Judy
ReplyDeleteAmy, I was at the Florida Mall on Monday. My friend took me to Dillards cafe, it is a fancy cafe on the second floor with wonderful food! We should have coordinated our visit!
