~ It's a Beautiful Day!

Thank you to everyone who came by to spend a little time here for Halloween and for letting me and a few thousand others visit your sites for the holiday. It was fun!
I remember what a big deal it was not only when I was a kid but when Sweet Daughter was little too. Not as many cute kidlets at my house as then. BUT...
boy did they come out over at Sweet Daughter's new house! Tons of them. She ran out of candy.


I'm working on some Christmas cards and putting them in the shop. I try not to think "Christmas" until after Thanksgiving usually. But I learned last year that you have to start much earlier with being online.

It's a beautiful day, not just in my backyard, but in the world. A day of hope, at long last. The sign reading "white only" has come off the big white house.  To all the millions and millions of people who stood in line, or mailed their precious ballot in, you are amazing. Thank you, no matter who you favored.

    I love the Christmas Card. I try not to think about Christmas until Thanksgiving is over but I have been buying a few things here and there :-) But I wont' decorate until after Thanksgiving.

  6. Yes, it is the dawning of a bright and hopeful new era!

    Just popped by your shop --- LOVE those bird and chandelier prints! Those are just so charming and elegant at the same time.

    I try not to think of Christmas too early either, but I do so like getting my shopping and holiday preparations done early so I can enjoy the other joys of the season.
