Welcome Home Wednesday #12

Hi all..this is supposed to be a season of joy and hope....but after the tragedy in Sandy Hook...thats a tough one. I myself work in a school district....with special ed. pre school age. It is hard to go to work knowing a tragedy like this could happen anywhere ....anytime. Our children are so sweet...so vulnerable...so trusting. To think that anyone would harm this innocence is unthinkable .....but ours can be a cruel world.I pray that God will comfort the sad this Christmas season...and bless the innocent.... Hope everyone is finally getting their last minute stuff done...if you are able please join me.... Next week I will not party in honor of the Christmas holiday...see you the Wednesday after!!!! God Bless You All!!!!!!

Hi all,,,,trying to get a little bit of Christmas in every room in the house!!!! It is a lot of work... but I do enjoy it...This year I really tried to simplify my decorating and of course this year it's all about WHITE... LOL My family does groan a little...they are into the traditional red and green. I bit the bullet on my tree though...that has colored lights... UGH.... Oh we'll gotta keep the family happy too... LOL I must admit.... a little color can be nice.....
