Merry Christmas And Other Stories ( photo)
Merry Christmas!
In the language of some of my ancestors, Nollaig shona dhuit.
It's nearly 5 AM. I've being running for about 14 hours straight cleaning, decorating, etc. Tom is doing the cooking today. They gave out turkeys at Kevin's work, so we will have turkey! We should go over to drop off the gifts for Gabe and Vincent, but I'm not sure if they will be at home or not.
I put the Angel Lights Barbie on the top of the tree this year. She's two or three times as tall as our other one. My Mom made that little one with a thread cone, some cardboard, glitter, and the head from a broken doll. And people ask where I get the crafty ideas from!
Some of you know that I collect Barbies. When I was going up into the attic to get a few things, I found a set that my parents gave me several years ago. I thought vocalista001 might get a kick out of this. I didn't take this picture, but the only differences in this set and my own are that Kelly's cello is standing upright and her hair is worn down.
There are still a few small things to be wrapped and mailed. One for my MIL is going out late. She told Tom not send her any gifts, but as luck would have it when we were in Austin I found something lovely at Things Celtic. They are not usually open on Sundays, but with the holiday and all, they were open. It's a lovely little store, but it's in a location that gives me fits to find!
