Mantle

SORRY! I HAVE BEEN MISSING IN ACTION LATELY, I'M STILL CARING FOR MY DAD, HE IS NOW IN THE HOSPITAL AGAIN WITH CHF, HE WAS ADMITTED EARLY THANKSGIVING MORNING, IT REALLY HURTS TO SEE HIM SO SICK.

I'M POSTING A BEFORE PICTURE OF MY MANTLE---THAT IS BEFORE CHRISTMAS DECORATIONS. I'M NOT SURE WHAT COLORS I'LL USE, MAYBE GOLD AND WHITE.

I HOPE ALL OF MY BLOGGING FRIENDS HAD A BLESSED THANKSGIVING AND A WONDERFUL TIME WITH FAMILY.

STAY TUNE--I'LL BE BACK.

Christmas Tablescapes

I have been spending lots of time searching the Internet for Thanksgiving Tablescapes and have settled on doing the natural look, I also found some great Christmas tablescapes to post, the photos are from "sweet design blog". Christmas is one of my favorite holidays, I just love to decorate for Christmas. This year we will have two new additions to our family, Tyler (I posted his picture) and Brennan born November 6, 2008. ( I will post his picture later, I do not have an "OK" from Brennan's mother to post yet).

Saturday I made a few garage sales and found a cute sled, which I want to spray paint white and use for wrapped Christmas gifts for the grandchildren.

Holiday Inspiration

My father is doing better and hopefully everything will slow down a little.

I have been searching the net for inspiration to decorate my dinning room table for "Thanksgiving Holiday". I'm posting a collection of photos that I find interesting. If you have photos of your table decorated for Thanksgiving please post, I need help. I will be home this year and want to do something special for my family.
