The Season Of Giving & Receiving

Hello Friends!
How are you doing on your holiday prep? I have some packages packed and ready to be shipped. I still have to pick up few presents.
The week so far has been busy for me. Dinners and coffee with friends. And some gift exchanges and mailbox surprises.



I had dinner with friends last night and my friend Pam gifted me with this sweet snowman that she made. I love snowmen. He is up on my mantel. I don't want Binx to get ahold of him.


Then in the mail was an envelope from Shirlee from The Easily Influenced Stitcher Blog.


What a wonderful prim holiday ornament! I love it.


I hope that there are surprises and fun for all my friends this holiday season!

Woohoo!

A cute snowman that you received from your friend. And y great ornament.
No, I'm not done buying presents yet but will be tomorrow. I'm always procrastinating when it comes to preparing for Christmas and every year I'm completely surprised that it approaches so fast, lol.
