I hope you had a Merry Christmas! I stopped by the other day and thought I left a comment on your kitchen, but see I didn't. I sure do love it! The santa chef is so cute! I have a lot of candy in my kitchen too, faux and real! I love all of your scrooge characters too. We watched that the other night. What a great movie! Hope you have a Happy New year!

You exhaust me. I mean, don't get me wrong...it isn't like I don't have any decorations...but my word! I must admit I am anxious to see your New Year's Eve tree. I do a table, but not a tree. I probably shouldn't look because then I will want to do it and...the cycle continues. You have such beautiful items...I just love some of those Santas.

My mother and I have very similar taste and both our kitchens are chefs and waiters...so naturally I would love to have that santa chef, where ever did you get him? He is so awesome! You know I think if my Christmas deco had that much candy, I too would eat more candy. Dangerous sister! Well I sure an glad that you came and visited me and I look forward to talking with you more, btw, my mother is donna aka squawmama... :~)QtPiEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13930979976960759250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8702816552340511485.post-29084646393807637682008-12-27T10:03:00.000-06:002008-12-27T10:03:00.000-06:00Good morning Laurie, thanks for taking the time to...Good morning Laurie, thanks for taking the time to swing by this morning. How's the tearing down of the Christmas coming? I'm so glad I got all the outside stuff down and put away yesterday. We've been under tornado watchs, now have pouring down rains, have had heavy winds and some are without lights, and some have damage. I had a tree blown over.. Now, they are calling for freezing rains... yikes, I think old man winter is mad at something..I hope you aren't receiving the same weather... don't work too hard today..<BR/>hugs ~lynne~Lynne (lynnesgiftsfromtheheart)https://www.blogger.com/profile/01257730471888896363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8702816552340511485.post-55778187404410839422008-12-27T09:57:00.000-06:002008-12-27T09:57:00.000-06:00Laurie,Whew,I am tired just reading all that you d...Laurie,Whew,I am tired just reading all that you do.Your are the decorating diva for sure!I think it is wonderful that you do all of this.It is obvious that you love it or you wouldn't be able to pull it off.No wonder you have 30 people in your home for the Holidays,no other home would do after seeing yours.I loved the Christmas childrens aprons,that is really a special touch.I am putting that one in my memory bank.Thank you for sharing,I loved it.hugs to you KathysueKathysuehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11272239664279235716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8702816552340511485.post-68851815519769736652008-12-24T18:33:00.000-06:002008-12-24T18:33:00.000-06:00Merry Christmas to you and yor family.
