Reflecting on my Christmas!

 It all started at the very end of November when I started entering the giveaways like a mad woman.
It was so nice to get packages through the month of December. I was truly blessed by all of them.
The cloche above was valued at $95.00
 Then I won a $40.00 gift card to Target through Gigi Petals.. and I bought the shabby sheet set below with the card.. I have wanted these sheets for awhile..

 Love this color and added it to my bathroom off my bedroom..

 I picked out two amazing charms with a silver chain as well with my winnings from Pick up sticks!
I plan on ordering from them soon. I love their stuff. Made very well.

 I still have to shop with my $50.00 from Ruby Jeans site. link here to Ruby jeans and the mention of me!

Just couldn't believe it! It was sure a fun month for me!

 This book above was one I have wanted for awhile now and to my surprise my Secret Santa(David) sent it to me! Of course he had some help from my niece Joy.. Thanks so very much. Cant wait to sit and read it..
And Beth at http://patinawhite.typepad.com/patina_white/ contacted me after I had emailed her about some flash cards  she sent them to me right away and of course I dont have a picture of them but like them. I felt honored to have sent several emails back and forth and to have her on my blog favorites. She is quite talented..
                  My Christmas was really calm this year... Christmas Eve we had both kids and Londyn(granddaughter) spend the night.. So fun. I was able to tuck my girls into the spare bed. And awake to Londyn running into wake us up to hurry down and open presents. Reminded me of when my kids were younger. She really made out this year.. New traditions are starting as our kids are grown up and spending time with their girlfriend/ boyfriends this year.. Christmas Day was spent with my parents.. It was really nice not having to rush somewhere else. My brother and twin sister(Penny) fixed the dinner for our parents, did all the clean up. Came home to a hot bath and a nap and then a good movie. I was blessed..
The only bummer was my camera batteries died after just a couple of pictures.. So my picture taken did not happen this year. Here is a couple I took from Jordan's facebook..

I love this little girl so very much.. Off to bed now.. Blessings this evening.. Pam
P.S. I am so excited for my friend Trish who became a grandma Christmas Eve Day..
Welcome Cooper... Congrats to Trish
