click here for printable Christmas tags It's been another busy week of shopping, gift making, wrapping, and shipping.  I just have a couple more gifts to buy and I will officially be finished with Christmas shopping.  Yay!  I have a few more boxes to ship next week, also.  Laura has been really helpful with the shopping, wrapping, and shipping and I really appreciate her help.  Plus, she's a better gift wrapper than I am. We purchased a fresh cut tree from a nearby tree lot.  No trudging through ice like last year - it's just too cold out (for me, anyway) with temps earlier today only in the 30s.  The tree has been hauled into the house and set up in the stand to be decorated tomorrow.  The fresh pine makes the house smell so good. Hope everyone is having a good week! Cindy

Really?  There are only three weeks left until Christmas! It feels like time is racing.  It was just Thanksgiving, then Fred and I went out of town for a couple of days, and I've spent the past few days thinking about Christmas preparations.  I've purchased a few things at the store, a few more online, and I'm working frantically on the gifts I'm making. When it's time for a break, I like to spend a few minutes cruising around Pinterest.  Here are some of my favorites:   And finally... Hope everyone is having a good weekend! Cindy
