Oh, What a Beautiful Day!

Merry CHRISTmas to all today! I've been really busy getting ready for today and it was great! Hearing my children say it was the best Christmas ever was priceless and made up for many days filled with preparations. This photo was a beautiful shot of nearby Walloon Lake that is very pretty almost any time of year, about 3 miles south of Petoskey. I hope you all had a wonderful day as well!

Oh, Christmas Tree

I do love the ornaments on my Christmas tree. I have been collecting them for many years, all whites, gold, pearl, and a little pink as well. This heart is hand-blown iridescent glass and is so delicate and glittery. Love it! Hope you enjoy your Christmas season just as much as we do!

But on a Nice Note...

the Christmas lights are up downtown! They put them up before the snow comes in the fall and they are really lovely at night. Each light has its own garland with lights and some of them even have wreaths. I am really looking forward to this Christmas season, even if snow has already arrived.
