Combining three memes today - Fun Favorites on Friday , Willy Nilly Friday Five and Five on Friday - so do I get 10? It is never hard for me to take lots of photos - especially during the holidays - I love this time of the year.
1. Trees
2. My Teddy Bear Tree
One of our favorite teddy bear ornaments
And a Partridge in a Bear Tree!
3. Two of our grandsons - a few years ago - they are 14 and 11 now
4. Felt christmas stockings I made for our family in 1969.
5. Christmas train - loaded with M&Ms - I painted this in the 1980s - and every christmas it sits on the table and hauls its cargo of candy
One of my favorite Washington Ornaments - The Washington State Ferry decorated for christmas . Santa won't forget the good boys and girls that live on the islands.
And different kinds of trees - great for munching!
May your days be merry and bright!!!
