I've missed checking in here and hope to be able to more now. I'm still not "settled" ~ as in there are still a few boxes and LOTS to do as far as placing the furniture as I'd like it and the decorating. I've had a marvelous holiday with family and friends though and that's what it's all about ~ as well as honoring the birth of Jesus.<br /><br />Thank you for the beauty you share! I look forward to more in the new year.

You are my hero for continuing the tradition of a formal Christmas Eve fete. It's kind of like church: you dress up in honor of the celebration. ALL of your pieces are so pretty, and you KNOW I am just salivating over those service pieces you picked up on Ebay! Those are too fabulous for words. TOO fabulous!!! I hope you and your family have the very, very, very best Christmas ever! Further, I hope that your family continues the formal tradition for generations to come...it is a GREAT tradition! P.S. - Thanks for stopping by my blog earlier! You're right...you could have given me a TON of snow for those pails. It looks like you guys got about 8 inches or so?
