PINK SATURDAY, BLUE MONDAY & A PEEK AT CHRISTMAS

Hello I hope everyone had a nice Thanksgiving! Ours was wonderful!
I've had a busy and fun week since I've talk to you all last. I love being off from work and have gotten so many things done. My husband and I put a wood floor down in a little hallway in the older part of our home. I will be posting pics of that soon.

For my Pink Saturday post today I have these pretty little fleese throws that I picked up in, of all places CVS. I thought the colors were so pretty and I love to have these handy little cover ups around. I always keep my couch arms covered up in them in case Molly the Newf decides to get on the couch and use the arm as a chin rest. LOL

If you go to visit Beverly of How Sweet The Sound you can get a list of all the other participants. A close up below. Feel free to click on the pics to get a larger view. My daughter Jen made the cute little faux sugar cookie ornaments. Your can visit her here.

Now on to my Blue Monday post with Sally of Smiling Sally. This week while being off I finished this tote that I started months ago. It's a cross stitch that I did years ago and had framed but decided to make it into a tote bag.

If you look close you can see that she has little pearls for a necklace and little pearls in her hair bows.

I love her quilted chair that she is setting on!

Christmas is definatly in the air here. I have been busy pulling out all my decorations. Friday I spent the day taking down all my fall, cleaning house and started putting up Christmas. Look how cute these socks are that I found in The Dollar Tree. I love the old fashioned wool knee socks (that I can't find anymore) so I pick up these cute little holiday socks to wear with jeans.

They have lots of glitter threads in them that is not showing up here.

We celebrated my first Grandsons 19th birthday on Thanksgiving Day. My how the time does fly. I was so busy making pies so I purchased his Birthday cake. It was delish with Bryers Ice Cream! Happy Birthday Joey, we love you and are so proud of you!

My daughter Jen made me these cute little faux cakes for Thanksgiving. She makes so many pretty things, you can visit her here. Thank you Jen, I love them!

Another one of my favorite things that I have been doing during this week off from school is reading all my new Christmas issues of magazines.

Thank you so much for stopping by, it was so nice to visit with you. I have alot planned for my last two days off before I go back to work. I do enjoy being home and nesting, making a nice comfy home for my family but I do look forward to getting back to work. I'm sure the children will be counting the days until Christmas. It will be fun to share their excitement!

Have a great week!

Blessings, Shirl
