Hi Chickies!And, Happy Pink Saturday!
Hosted by our sweet Beverly at www.howsweetthesound.typepad.com
Isn't she a dollface to host this fun event every week?
Beverly said we could deviate from the pink theme a little bit for the next few weeks since lots of the girlies decorate for Christmas with red....and after all....pink is just light red, right?
Well, I actually do decorate with pink. My house is soooo pastel that red is really too bright here at the cottage.
Our assignment this week is to reveal our favorite Christmas decoration.
Mine? This nativity. Isn't it beautiful? My sweet and wonderful daughter bought this for me for Christmas a few years ago. I adore it.
As I've said.......I'm not one to shy away from marriage....and the second time (yep, you heard me right).....I had a little stepdaughter who was about ten at that time.....I asked her to help me decorate for Christmas and she was thrilled to be involved.
Years before I had purchased a Precious Moments nativity that was the sweetest little thing ever.....My little stepdaughter was in charge of setting it up.
I was doing other things and when she said to come and look, she was all finished....all I could do was cry. I had had this nativity for years and the faces were so darn sweet I always wanted them to show so I faced them all to the front.........
Not this little gal........she faced every single face where they should be focused...
Toward the Baby Jesus.
Is that not the sweetest and dearest thing ever?
I've NEVER faced them to the front again and I think of her every year when I set my nativity up.
The Precious Moments nativity? Yep......my daughter loved it so it lives at her house now.
I think she knew how much I missed it so she bought me this new one. *wink*!!
Several months ago that dear little Stephanie at Rose Petal and Rust had a giveaway for these delish vintage pink balls and I WON!Aren't they yummy? I was so excited to get them....in their cute little packaging with a posie on top! Ahhhhhhhhh......... :-)
I actually bought that silly little tree on Maui!.....after Christmas for 50% off. My kind of buy!
More of those delish pink balls.......and a little robin egg blue bird on top....My sweet daughter bought that for me too! Isn't it cute?I bought the little glittery silver box at Joann's a couple of weeks ago....for next to nothin'...
And that sweet little box? Goodwill! It has ILY on the top. I couldn't figure out what that meant...wellllll.........silly me! I love you! Oh, who cares.....I thought it was so sweet and I neeeeded it! Why, in heaven's name is my lampshade crooked? Well, too late to take another picture.
Yep, those sweet little Goodwill shoes again. I just love 'em. They make me feel like dancin'.....Do you think Dorothy would wear pink instead of red in this Shabby Chic era?Hello Yellow Brick Road!
Ok..........sweet and wonderful girlies!
