CHRISTMAS IS COMING DOWN AT OUR HOUSE. WE ARE SAYING GOODBYE TO THE SEASON AND LOOKING AHEAD TO THE NEW YEAR. Before it was dismantled completely, I took a few pictures of the obvious signs of Seasonal Overload. Hope you enjoy my {not so} Wordless Wednesday:

1. Potholders have replaced stockings on the fireplace:


2. The reindeer have begun to protest about being left in the snow…uh, I mean dust storm.


They mentioned a dust blizzard and that’s when the protests really got ugly:


    3. The plate which held the list is now blank


    4. It takes a village to care for the special babe in the manger. (Possible colic?)


    5. The Sugar Plum Fairy has reported a party gone awry in her jurisdiction.

    But seriously, I hope you enjoyed your down time and are ready to tackle 2012 with me. Happy New Year, my dear readers!
