~A Peek Into Our Weeks

We put up our Christmas tree.  When I was a child my parents would get us a new ornament every year, and then when we moved out, we took all of our ornaments to enjoy on our own trees.  I have passed this tradition on to my children.  My daughter Lauren was married, and so this year, she took all of her ornaments to adorn her and her husband's tree this year.  

I like to drink out of this little vintage mug from time to time, because it reminds me of my dear cousin Teri.  These are the sweet little mugs that she serves coffee in at her little cottage.

I did not decorate too extravagantly this year, but this is one of the little extra Christmas touches that I added to our little kitchen.

Here are my favorite magnets.  The little owl had belonged to my sweet grandma Kelly.  I always saw it on her refrigerator in my youth.  I just love and miss her so very much.

I enjoy seeing my little shelves in my kitchen aglow with the lights.  I keep these little Christmas touches up all year long.  I love to keep the spirit of Christmas alive in our home always.  One of my favorite childhood songs is keep Christmas with you all through the year.  It was in the show I used to watch as a child called Christmas eve on Sesame Street

I got some new Deerfoam slippers for this winter.  I just love them.

Here is a set of vintage snow men that my mother gave to me.  They used to be a staple in my childhood home each Christmas.

 I enjoy having pretty scenes on my TV with Christmas jazz music.  I find these on YouTube.

Here is my sweet kitty Hope.  Hope loves to lay under the Christmas tree.  My daughter Megan did a photo shoot with her last evening.  

I want to thank you for stopping by my little space.  I hope you are having a good Christmas season and are keeping cozy.  God bless you and hugs to you.  ~Juli
