Hello from sunny and cold Renton, WA in the Pac NW.
Where we are busy enjoying holiday activities with son, daughter and their families.
We've been very busy.
We went to visit Santa and had to wait a few minutes while he was taking a break at a coffee shop. Break time over he jollied his way back to business to find out what the children wanted for Christmas.
Then we had to visit Carpinito Bros. produce market to see the 'nativity' camel and a couple of Santa's reindeer. Cookies have been made and eaten. Songs have been sung. We've colored with color crayons and made lots of art. I don't know if I can keep this pace up. But I'm smiling.
I hope you're enjoying the season, cold or warm.
Remembering to be thankful here.
I'll be by to visit.
It looks like you are getting ready for Christmas! Sweet little ornaments.
ReplyDeleteLove the term Grandmuffins! Enjoy your time - looks like you are off to a great start.
ReplyDeleteOf course you can keep up the pace! Grand Muffins GIVE you energy!
ReplyDeleteIs that Santa's body guard or did he need an escort for some other reason? Lost his directions? Had a brandy with his coffee?
Well brandy and coffee would warm things up a bit and get the ho ho's rolling for sure.
DeleteHowever drinking on the job tends to be frowned on and hopefully, Santa realizes the importance of his job,
Saving the warming drinks till he gets home, where the Mrs. can keep an eye on him.
Grand muffins, Santa, and scotties. What could be better?
ReplyDeleteCute Grandmuffins! I especially like the pic of the littlest one coloring. And your ornaments sure turned out cute!
ReplyDeleteI guess there is a lot of excitement about the big day with all your little ones! Wishing you all ther most amazing Christmas Janie...xxx
ReplyDeleteI giggled when I noticed Santa needing an escort....wonder if that was because he was afraid of being mobbed? Fun! Your wee Scotties are ever so cute.
