The Holidays are Upon us...

I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving. We spent it with my parents and had a perfectly lovely meal. Of course, we ate until we were stuffed and then ate some more.

Our home is infused with Holiday Spirit. I am very excited about the Holidays this year. Perhaps it is because my little ones are so excited, it is very contagious, you know. We have been decorating, baking, singing songs.
I am hosting my first Holiday dinner this year and am already thinking of my menu. Should we go with the traditional dinner? or should we do something interesting and start our own traditions?

Hmmm. Decisions, decisions.
Does your family have any dinner traditions for the Holidays?

I have also been creating some new pieces. Holiday Bling done Gypsy Moon style...




These are now available here in my Etsy shop. They would make great gifts, or would make a great gift to yourself. You have been good this year, haven't you?

I have many more new creations and will be adding new items to my shop daily.

We woke up to snow this morning. There was much jumping up and down and clapping from my two little ones. The first snow fall is always so beautiful. I love the snow, I just wish there was some magical way to keep it off the roads.

I will leave you with this magical clip from my FAVORITE Holiday movie, White Christmas.
What a wonderful era this was, ladies wore dresses and pearls everyday, and men wore suits everyday. Oh, to dance with Danny Kaye would be amazing...

Ahhhh, Danny Kaye and Vera Ellen - what a WONDERFUL choice for a White Christmas clip. Thank you!!!

We don't really have a traditional Christmas dinner at our house. The turkey thing gets done at Thanksgiving, so Christmas is whatever I feel like - LOL! I think that in itself makes for a great tradition: Cooks Choice Holiday Dinner!

Ooooh, cook's choice sounds like a lovely tradition to me. Hmmm. I think my choice would be lobster!

I always had a crush on Danny Kaye. White Christmas gets played repeatedly at our house during the Holidays. :)
