It definitely doesn't look like you had your typical Christmas weather. We...on the other hand...had a white christmas and are still enjoying cold and sun (and a dusting of white). Quite lovely, actually. It looks like you had a nice family Christmas. Happy New Year...which you are getting close to ringing in! We still have a few hours to enjoy 2015. :)Judy https://www.blogger.com/profile/00929685771427155673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152193618785368659.post-7479703806316741432015-12-31T17:41:08.589-05:002015-12-31T17:41:08.589-05:00Great quote and so true.

People around here can never remember weather so mild for this time of year.<br />The saying doesn't apply to me. I'm not really a holiday type person.

I'm glad to see you and your ...Hi Dearest Vee,<br /><br />I'm glad to see you and your loved ones had such a nice Christmas!! We did at our house, as well. This weather has indeed been unbelievably mild -- we had to turn our a/c back on Christmas Eve. Personally, I prefer it to be colder at Christmas; I had to wear my spring/summer clothes to my parents' on Friday.<br /><br />Your niece is indeed very talented to be chosen to dress the department store windows in NYC. Way to go!! I'm sure you must have really enjoyed seeing her and your sister. Your grandson's book cracked me up -- everything is zombies now, isn't it?<br /><br />I also think of Christmas as the high day of the year, Vee. In recent years, I'm just so thankful that we still have all our family here together; I know it won't always be that way. Thanks so much for your visits, as I haven't been able to post or visit much myself. Also, your header looks terrific!! I'm glad you were finally able to change it out. Blogger can be very frustrating at times.<br /><br />Love and Best Wishes to you through the rest of the Christmas season and in the coming New Year.<br /><br />Hugs,<br /><br />Denise at Forest ManorDenisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01235440820949449634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152193618785368659.post-578721536065337212015-12-30T16:54:20.511-05:002015-12-30T16:54:20.511-05:00How fun...baseball on Christmas Day in New England...How fun...baseball on Christmas Day in New England! That probably won't happen again anytime soon! Hasn't this been the strangest weather? We had 80 degrees in the Smoky Mountains...what??? Nevertheless, it was a good time, all around!

They seem to just wiz by so quickly!<br /><br />I can hardly believe the difference between last winter and this winter on the East Coast! Your grass even looks like it's turning green! I would have loved a good game of baseball, or in my case, snowball, for Christmas this year! Loved your videos!<br /><br />I thought it was so nice that you had your niece and your sister there for, Christmas, the more the merrier! <br /><br />I sometimes feel like a zombie . . . just sayin' . . . <br /><br />Isn't it funny what our camera captures sometimes?! I loved seeing all your pictures, it sure does my heart good to see happy families. <br /><br />I hope you have a wonderful new year . . . reflecting on the last year, I think I will do a few, or a lot, of things different :0)<br /><br />Hugs,<br />Barb<br /><br />Barbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15158897469583069249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152193618785368659.post-26792127497671753082015-12-30T15:10:53.965-05:002015-12-30T15:10:53.965-05:00What an absolutely lovely home and family you have...What an absolutely lovely home and family you have Vee!
