Our local paper will print next week the Nativity plays from the schools if I can scan them OK I will post some.

Harrumph!! Oh sure! Love the Logo, but not the Big Bad! Besides he has artistic talent for drawing like you do... Me...I'm only good at the shovel

:) Hi, Elfie. I love the Big Bad, too, though. He's not really so bad. And talented for sure. :)

However, you sure have a great stash of Elfie graphics for one who doesn't have a talent for drawing. :)

[Billie]

Oh, that would be great, snugs. We have a couple of weeks left before Christmas, and even if some of our threads are not specifically geared towards Christmas, will still be happy to see them whenever you get them scanned and uploaded. :)

[Billie]

Thanks for the bump, VOA.

[Billie]

It would give me great pleasure to post this every Sunday. It is a beautiful song.

Yes, it really is. :)

I have GOT to get away from here and get some cookies baked! Will be back sometime before the day is over to check messages - am loving all these Christmas posts. :)

Oh thanks billie for posting my tree. Was gone all day yesterday, Christmas Party last night and am scrambling today to get my trees, decorations up so I can post pictures tonight!

Re: Giz and Rusty picture. LOL..you all thought I did the table. That was computer generated by the photographer! :o) Back later, hopefully with pics!

OK will do, yesterday I mentioned that the free carrier bags that ASDA (Walmart) give you to put your shopping in had Happy Christmas on them along with Christmas stars. I scanned one this morning and here it is

You know, Sistah, if it were not for Emma we probably would not be decorating much either. I'm already thinking, "which child gets the old ornaments?" I would like to pass them down while I'm yet alive, as I wish to do with most of the "things" that I have that are meaningful to the children.

You and I both know that Christmas is a matter of the heart and spirit, and you have enough of that to fill the universe. And, we have our dreams of Christmas past. Love you dear Sistah.

[WVNan]

Ha. Thanks for the puzzle Dolly. I'm a kid at heart and love those things.

I took my good camera with today when I visited mum and re-took the photos of the Nativity Scene and her tree plus a Wise Men display on the table in the foyer of the home.

I found out the story behind the Nativity Scene it was knitted by a 80 year old lady at the previous home that the Manager of this home managed. A lovely story.

Here are the photos.

If you look carefully you will see it now has little chocolate parcels on it.

A clearer photo of the Nativity Scence

I got the chocolate tree decorations yesterday and they will be in the post tomorrow.

Wolfie looks fairly Elf-friendly to me, Pistov.

[WVNan]

Oops, I forgot to leave the evidence.

[WVNan]

You keep getting all the snow, Dolly. We haven't gotten any yet.

[WVNan]

Hi. That is one beautiful pack of 2. Glad you dropped into the Finest.

[WVNan]

LOL. You seem to have outdone yourself, Wolfie. (((((((Wolfie)))))))

[WVNan]

Hi Billie. Yes, I was in and out between chores yesterday and evening. Thanks again for the lovely picture frames. I made hubby sit down and look at them after church today. LOL. He doesn't do sitting very well.

[WVNan]

you haven't had to retouch them or anything?

Oh yes, they have been repainted a few times. The framing on the back is coming loose, so I may have to rebuild that, then they will have to have another new coat of paint. I still like them better than those big "blow-up" yard thingys.
