My 2002 Christmas Card

Twas the night before Christmas...

and all the presents are wrapped.
And handmade soap will be given to all good friends unless they've been bad.

I realized about half way through making my labels that I really do not need to add who the gift is from.  If they can't figure it out with the calligraphy then we have a problem!

A Very Merry Christmas Christmas to all! Don't forget to leave milk and cookies out for Santa!
Or maybe some soap!

Santa's Got Back

A little tree and a little Santa booty for Day 14!

Ding-A-Ling Day

Supposedly December 12th is Ding-A-Ling Day, hence the kid floating on an inflatable duck raft behind window number fifteen in my BINGOvent Advent Calendar above.  I am pretty much convinced everyday is Ding-A-Ling Day! Time to celebrate your inner Ding-A-Ling!

Happy Hanukkah

Day 3 of Hanukkah.  My BINGOvent Advent Calendar shows a Menorah with three candles burning beautiful and bright. Although I do not observe the celebration of Hanukkah, I could easily go for some fried doughnuts and potato latkes right about now! Happy days of Hanukkah to all!

Not a creature was stirring...

not even a mouse.

 

Holly Holiday

'tis time to deck your hall with boughs of holly!

Drive through a tree Day

Did you drive through a tree on December 6th? We could call this a "hole in one"!
