Christmas Ornaments
My friend Nancy and I went to nearby Bracken Village last week and again last night to photograph Christmas lights there. These are a couple of photos of some ornaments on one of the trees outside one of the shops there.
I beg your forgiveness for my cutting and pasting – yet constantly reworking – this comment, but there was no way on Earth I would be able to make it around the whole globe to wish everybody a Merry Christmas otherwise.
The magical elves that constitute my staff have demonstrated their lack of respect in either not showing up for work at all, and those that have all seem a little worse for wear, if you catch my drift. All they seem to do is sit around smoking cigarettes that, quite frankly, smell funny. And they play cards and tell dirty jokes rather than do their jobs! Consequently, the reindeer are all filthy and out of shape. And you know, the two rabbits, one wallaby and three wombats I’ve drafted in just don’t cut it as replacements.
Anyway, from myself, Henry and Ezra, have a Merry Christmas/Winter Solstice/Hanukkah/Festivus and a happy New Year!
I hope that all of your holiday photos turn out to be triumphs, your stocking is stuffed full of lots of tasty treats and not coal and that all your pumpkin pies are all as sweet just the way that you like them.
I am a Christian wife, mother, and grandmother who is not often found without a camera or paintbrush at hand. I live in a small town in Texas, but grew up in West Plains, Missouri. God's beautiful world inspires me to take photographs and paint. I work full time as our church's administrative assistant.

Lovely ornaments and I like the beautiful new header. Lovely.
These are so glorious in golden tones.
How pretty. I love the bell!
How do you get that color? That's awesome!
Great color in these tammy! Creates a very warm and cozy ambiance.
