The gifts

The best gift of all was spending time with my family but there were also lots of wonderful other gifts as well.

From Amanda and Rob, pajamas, two new additions for my Christmas village and a framed picture of Amanda and I last year at Christmas.


From Brad, Britney and Presley (I'm told Presley picked these out) a sweet little flower arrangement, a set of plates with cute baking/kitchen sayings on them, a soap dispenser, a cute decoration, and a frame with  a lovely sequin background. I'm told that Britney suggested another one but Presley thought the pink sequins were the right choice. There was also a set of markers and it all came in a wood crate that you can write on the front with chalk.


Wades oldest son and his wife, who live in Virginia sent me these adorable nutcracker tins that are filled with all kinds of yummy treats.

I also got a gift card to Applebees from Wades youngest son.

I was truly spoiled this year for Christmas.

I love those nutcrackers, too, and it says something for you that Wade's kids sent you gifts! That is wonderful to my mind. And the sequinned frame brings a big smile to my face. It will be perfect for framing pics of Presley.

Ginny, yes, they are all awesome. The nutcrackers are great. The tins will make great decorations in the years to come.

Anni, I was thrilled with the new additions to the village and now I have a bakery which I can't believe I haven't added before this.

Gayle, The water tower is really cute. I have a soft spot for snowmen
