In Memory of Keashia

As many of you know, our dog Keashia, passed on. This is a nice memorial to her through In Memory of Pets.

Christmas Eve Dinner Table


Tonight I will be having Christmas Eve dinner at our house for my parents. My brother usually joins us, but he has to work this evening. We will attend Mass and then have a dinner of Lasagna and Veal Cutlets. Here's one of my place settings:


I've been collecting the Winterberry pattern for about 10 years now. The red bowls are not Pfaltzgraff. When I bought them, Pfaltzgraff didn't make a red salad bowl. Now they do, but it's a nice mix.
Merry Christmas!

Visit with Santa




On Saturday evening we visited the light display and Santa at Blue Spruce State Park. It was beautiful, as always, and they even added an entire Frosty section with 18 new displays. We visited Santa in the gift shop before our ride through the park. Dear Daughter loved Santa once she warmed up to him. Dear Son shared his list in about 30 seconds!
Merry Christmas!
