I honestly did not plan to put up any decorations in the house as I will be away north at Christmas BUT as I was the host for our potluck brunch for my swim group a few things came out, including this Advent quilt is one I did a number of years ago and it just fit in the front doorway. The poinsetta and azalea were a thank-you to our coach, Liz who patiently each week invents new drills and sprints...Tuesday and Friday mornings are never boring, As weather has been consistently minus 20 the roads have been slippery and there was a crunch as a heating van slid into a parked trailer in front of my house....the street was closed and took 3 hours to clear and I took out some coffee and left overs from our brunch.

This is one of the funniest links i have got on wishing others a Merry Christmas!http://badaboo.free.fr/meryxmas.swf
