CHRISTMAS EVE & MERRY CHRISTMAS

THIS IS CHRISTMAS EVE AND SANTA IS ON HIS WAY!! WOOHOO!! HAVE TO STAY UP ALL NIGHT AND WATCH FOR HIM. :-) I am baking cookies, apple pie and blueberry pie today. 

I'M WISHING ALL A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS!!
HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO ALL!!

 THE "NO ONION" ORAMENT IS FROM MY DAUGHTER-IN-LAW JOLEEN.  She saw it at What A Burger and asked the manager if he had anymore of them.  She wanted to give one to her Mother-In-Law who is allergic to Onions.   He gave her one of the NO ONIONS orament to give to me. LOL LOL!!! She had it in a gift bag with a bow on it.  She said, this is an early Christmas present and you have to open it now.  I did and we laughed and laughed.  Joleen is such a SWEET DAUGHTER-IN-LAW!!  So it's hanging on my tree. :-)  I'll treasure the NO ONIONS orament she gave me. :-)

MERRY CHRISTMAS

CHRISTMAS PICTURES

HERE'S SOME PICTURES OF MY HOUSE.  I TOLD YOU I WOULD TAKE PICTURES AND I DID.   WILL TAKE MORE PICTURES OF THE OTHER ROOMS LATER ON.  NOT SURE WHEN BUT WILL BE AFTER THE HOLIDAYS.

CHRISTMAS TREE IN LIVING ROOM/BREAKFAST/KITCHEN AREA

My house is laid out different than my other house was; BUT I LIKE IT.  I LOVE DIFFERENT :-)

HALLWAY LOOKING IN TO DINNING ROOM/FRONT ENTRANCE

DINNING ROOM TABLE

FRONT DOOR AREA  ****MY HUSBAND'S OFFICE IS ON THE SAME SIDE AS THE DOLL YOU SEE STANDING ON THE ROUND TABLE. THERE'S GLASS FRENCH DOORS INTO HIS OFFICE.  I WANTED IT FOR MY STUDIO BUT THAT DIDN'T HAPPEN.  SOOOoooooo! I GOT 2 OTHER ROOMS. :-)   MADE ME HAPPEN.  HIS OFFICE WOULD HAVE BEEN TO SMALL FOR ALL MY SUPPLIES, DOLLS, ETC.......:-)  THE DINNING ROOM WAS GOING TO BE A SITTING ROOM WITH LOTS & LOTS OF DOLLS......BUT THAT DIDN'T HAPPEN EITHER. 

It's funny when you first see the house and you decide what you are going to do BUT WHEN YOU MOVE IN IT ALL CHANGES!!! LOL LOL!!

FIREPLACE MANTEL

KAT IN HIS BED LAYING ON HIS SANTA BLANKET

Will take pictures of rest of the house later on.  Our House is laid out different than our other house was.  It's kinda weird to me but I'm used to it now.  Kitchen/Breakfast Room/Living Room are all open.
The Front Entrance is the Dinning Room and there's a room off to the right when you come in the front door that is Ken's Office with French Doors.   Long Hallway from Front Entrance/Dinning Room OPENS UP INT THE Kitchen/Breakfast/Living Room areas.   NO PICTURES YET of Hallway to Bathroom/Studio 1/Studio 2/Guest Bedroom.   I used the other bedrooms for my 2 Studios.   The Master Bedroom & Master Bath is off the Long Hallway in Front of the house.  Master Bedroom has a BIG Walk In Closet.  Could make another room out of it.  LOL!  Really it could be turned into a little bedroom for one kid if needed. BUT then there wouldn't be a closet to hang your clothes. LOL LOL!! And we don't have any kids that small anymore. :-)   They are all grown and have families of their own.
OH! and we have a laundry room off of the kitchen.  You can go from the laundry to the garage.  Have an attached covered patio in the back of the house. Off from the livingroom area.

MERRY CHRISTMAS - HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO ALL!!
Love & Hugs

SNOW PEOPLE

My Snow People wanted me to post their pictures again. *Have a smaller Snow People but can't find it's picture. Will have to take another pic of it.  I created them a couple of  years ago and posted them before ......... but they want to be on my blog again this year.  SOOOOooooooo Here They Are.  I'm working on a couple of new ones.          

"TIS THE SEASON"

I CAN POST TO SOME BLOGS & SOME I CAN'T

I can now post to some blogs but some blogs I still can't.  I'll figure it all out I'm sure EVEN if I have to start another blog. LOL  I really don't want to do that.  Seems I have a gmail addy and don't know why or how to change it.  I've tried several time to get rid of that email addy.  It shows up on top of the screen as I type here in Posting.  I've gone to my account several times and changed it but it won't let me. I don't even get mail on gmail.   I guess it's OK for now at least I can post to some blogs now.  Perhaps I have to have gmail for Blogger.????????
Everyone Have a GREAT WEEKEND!
