I think the best time to be a kid is at Christmas!
The anticipated visit with Santa....
sharing the story of "T'was the Night Before Christmas!"
I can only imagine what Luke said to Santa to make him laugh like this!
To Santa, with love....
The weather cooperated on Saturday, and Miss M and family paid a visit to Hunter's Tree Farm!
Who doesn't love horseback riding on the farm?
I just want to reach in the picture and give both Luke and this sweet horse a big ole' kiss!
Postscript~
I did want to mention that the horses brought in for the
Christmas at Hunter's Tree Farm are all rescue horses.
Between two barns, they have forty horses.
The horse Luke is riding is named Max and he is eighteen years old.
Max was formerly an escort for race horses.
He retired after being bitten and kicked by the race horses
for a number of years.
He now gives gentle rides to children.
Daddy and Luke paid a visit to the pond to feed the swans!
Now this picture just stole my heart!
A ginger tabby and my darling Luke!
Hey precious babies!!!!
What a beautiful December family outing this was!
The weather in Atlanta had been rather cold all week
so this mild, sunny day was just what was needed
to get outside and enjoy the festivities of the season!
Abbie and her best friend Amelia have been friends since they were toddlers! Their friendship has carried them all the way to high school and I am so happy about that! Both girls are A students, participate on the Debate Team and sports! Abbs is on the Varsity Volleyball team and Amelia participates on the Golf team!
Saturday was an incredibly warm day here in Texas! Would you believe we are still wearing shorts and flip-flops! While Jenn braved the holiday traffic for an afternoon of shopping at Ikea, I went with the boys to Home Depot! I could not resist snapping a photo of this precious little four-legged shopper whose name was Stella! She made quite the entrance!
Why is it men can stand in front of a pile of lumber and stare at it for 45 minutes?
Well, after "pondering the planks" for about four minutes, I said, "see ya' boys....
I am going over to the Christmas section!"
Greg is going to be designing a new mantel for their family room fireplace.
After picking up a few extension cords and yet more outdoor lighting,
we were off to Market Street!
I love, love, love shopping at Market Street!
It's a feast for the eyes, nose and appetite!
Steaks on the grill, baked potatoes in the oven, enjoying the cocktail hour
by the firepit and Christmas lights all aglow....
save room for dessert guys and dolls!
Oh honey, have I got the most heavenly recipe to share with you this week.
Greg's favorite cake is a soft yellow cake with chocolate icing!I have now found THE perfect recipe which is a moist, old-fashioned yellow cake!
Drop by Estelle's later in the week for the details!
Hope y'all had a great weekend too! Can't wait to hear about your holiday fun!
Snowy set the stage by setting up Luke's Nativity!
Oh how I love Nativity scenes!
