On Christmas Eve-Eve...
More regular presents and many stocking presents wrapped last night...a few with Ashley's adorable tags. I love those little foxlets!
Christmas Eve-Eve was always a favorite with me when I was a little girl, for some reason. And here it is again, and I'm about to tidy the apartment so that I can go home to my mom's house for cookie making and movie watching and Christmas Eve and Christmas itself.
The blog and you lovely readers/friends are one of the best gifts I've received this year...the reservoir of support, encouragement and kindness never stops surprising and enchanting me. So thank you for the gifts of your comments, notes and impromptu gifts. Thank you for reading my blog and caring about my work and about me. I feel so very spoiled.
Merry, merry, merry my little elves! Happy Holidays & Enjoy the people that you love.
xoxoxo
Merry Christmas to you too!

I didn't know other people did Christmas Eve Eve. Growing up we always wished each other Happy Christmas Eve Eve. My children do the same(wonder where they got that from). Hope you had a great Christmas. Happy New Year.

I so enjoy your blog! Thank you for the time you invest in sharing with all of us. You are part of my inspiration to recently begin a little blog from life here on the farm in Mississippi. Today I briefly talked about the strange family tradition of being the first to say "Christmas Gif'" to each other.

Fondly,
