holiday cheer...

The daughter and I went to the Nutcracker last night, made us feel all holidayish (nice new word). 

Made some salty peanut fudge and packaged it up for the neighbors - more holiday spirit infusion...



also listening to this cd my daughter made me for Christmas last year...


and we're cooking away for our dinner party tonight.  Yep, feels like Christmas is finally here and I'm going to go off and enjoy it with my family.  I'll be signing off now probably for the rest of the year (oh that's sounds weird).  Wishing those of you who celebrate Christmas, a very merry one and those of you who don't, a lovely rest of the year.

Fill your days with laughter and I'll see you in 2011!

Loving the spirit that is floating around here! Though Bray puts a "lish" on the end of things so we would be feeling holiday-lish over here. A little birthday gathering for the small ones at lunch and then we are full speed ahead into Christmas-lish things again.

Love your little goody boxes - and you KNOW with the wee ones love of music (and all things Christmas-lish) we have been listening to Christmas-lish music for a month now!
Happy Holiday-lish-ness Everyone!
