Christmas decorations are out and old friends appear.

 When I put up the cross stitch tree,

you can't help but smile.  So many

pieces over the years.  Its like visiting

old friends.

 My two favorite chrismas pictures

of my kids when they were small.

My oldest daughter, Amanda,

bought me back mini Christmas

ornaments a few years back from

her trip over seas.  I purchased a

small table tree to display them.

November 14, 2014

It was a winter wonderland.  It looked

like all of the trees were painted

and sparkled with the fake white

snow you see at christmas.  There

are no words to describe it and the 

pictures don't do it justice.  Going up

to clingmans dome.  It was clear and

blue skies, at the bottom a winter 

wonderland.  A truly perfect day.
