Getting Ready for the Busy Night

Mr. and Mrs. Claus

Can you believe it's just one more evening and then it will be Christmas?  And here, Mr. and Mrs. Claus are taking a moment before all the craziness begins for them.  And don't they look great, ready for their busy season?

These are Christmas decorations that my mom made when I was just a little girl.  I remember very fondly seeing them out every year.  And, just a few years ago, she gave them to me.  Thanks mom, I love them very much and have enjoyed seeing them sitting on my shelf.

Christmas waves a magic wand over this world, and behold, everything is softer and more beautiful. ~Norman Vincent Peale
