Merry Christmas!

 So much preparation and it's over in a blink of an eye.  Christmas Eve.  Now this week, I love to just sit in the quiet hours and look at my tree.  So many ornaments to reminisce over.  But, this morning, I know of a little someone who is very excited over what Santa brought!  Merry Christmas Day!

 I have to tell you about my village.  I bought it many years ago when i was working.  There weren't many like it, in the little gift shop where I worked. 

 It's bigger than the other villages you see.  Most of the buildings are about seven or eight inches tall.

 The church is the tallest, the steeple rising about ten inches tall. 

 I think it's cozy.  Maybe it reminds me of Mitford now, although I didn't know about Mitford when I bought it so long ago.

 And then there's my ice skates.  My skates from when i was young.  They're always the first to go under the tree.

My lights are orange, but when they're lit, they look like candlelight glowing.  I saw them at someone's house, again many years ago, and loved the warmth they gave to the room.  These are just a few of my favorite things for me to sit and dream with this week.  Merry Christmas!
