Pretty, Happy, Funny, Real

Capturing the contentment of everyday life...


*Pretty*


A pretty poinsettia. 


*Happy*


My Advent "wreath." OK - I know it's just four candles on a round tray, but I'm happy that I actually had purple and pink candles! No greenery, yet, but I love the purple silk fabric, although now I realize I should have fixed it so that it didn't look so lumpy in the picture. And I also just realized you can hardly see one of the purple candles - but it's there, peeking up from behind the pink one.  

*Funny*


I caught Bud, The Little Dog, in the middle of The Boy's bed, a definite "no-no" for him. Can you tell he's trying very hard to be so small I don't notice him and make him leave his nice warm spot? Nice try, Bud!

*Real*


The Boy, working on his reading fair project before Thanksgiving. Note the "real" condition of my living room.

  1. I think your advent wreath is great. Did you know they used to use wagon wheels? Happy Advent!

  2. No, I didn't know that! What I don't know about Advent could fill books... I'm a Baptist, not many of us recognize the season of Advent at all.
