DPP-20

We bought a couple of these beautiful gold ones at a Christmas store in Garmisch, Germany. So delicate. Wish I had gotten more!

DPP-19

A unique ornament that we had made while living in Italy. Good thing we didn't have any more children after that! :)

DPP-18

The Westroads Flash Mob looking down from the upper level. It got even more packed!
Here's just a bit of the singing!

The baking begins


The meat pie looked so good that I had to take a photo. The puff pastry makes it yummy!













And a cascade of gingerbread. This is from my Grandmother's recipe who wrote on the recipe that it was HER mother's recipe. Over 100 years old!

Amazing Legos

I had some fun with a couple of boys Wednesday afternoon. We pulled out the Lego container AND the old ship. They were happy for hours!











But we had to take a little break to play with the cat... dangling "mouse" on a string! It was so funny!
