I was very surprised when Uncle Lee presented me with it..... We talked about a new birdhouse over the Summer, but I was supposed to give him dimensions for one. I forgot about it...until Christmas Day.... I hope the birdies come and live in it..... it even has a garage door, he did a beautiful job building it.
And even an H on the chimney for our last name...how thoughtful He used aluminum foil for the windows....the birdies should be real happy...lol

Charlie that is the coolest...Your uncle should sell them, he does a good job:-) The birds will love it...:-) look forward to pics of your new tenants;-)

I'm a bargain shopping overbuyer!
Like I bought my sister about 10 sweaters from fashion bugs online site.....2 of the sweaters I bought her were 29.99 at my local store, but they had an online sale in the summer and I got them for four something each....I love finding good bargains! I got each person at least 20 things....Mark got even more than I did!
I think I was pretty good this year!
PS....shoes are always good!

Well, Santa must have thought I was the perfect little angel, as always.
I got a pair of new house-shoes, a t-shirt gown with long sleeves, a polisher for my car (been wanting that for three years), a completed set of the Falconhurst series of books, chocolate covered cherries, CAVS unit (karaoke player for home), a slinky little lingerie set, bath pillow, picture frame, calendar of angels, candles, tabletop water fountain, two garden pictures, "turtles" candy, cards...
I promised Jim that if Santa brought me a polisher that I would keep both of our vehicles waxed. I can't wait for the weather to clear up so I can use it!
A special gift to me was a visit from my son, grandson, and daughter-in-law. Made my Christmas that much brighter...

Isn't that just too sweet?!? I haven't used it yet, but wanted to share my joy with everyone! Also, my son, who is only 6 got me a white gold diamond angel necklace, I definitely had tears then!!! TOO SWEET!!!

Sybil, wasn't that just too sweet that he would want to get me something I never got & wanted so bad as a child. My hubby is the best, son is pretty awesome too. I am wearing the necklace right now, wear it every day.

Well I had a late exchange with 2 of my best friends...one tonight, the other was last night.
Here's what they got me! Except I got a blue sweater too but I have it on right now.
That plant light thing I wanted from Lowes forever but I was too cheap to buy it, when I decided to go back for it they were all gone! I love it! And fountains are always good! And the welcome to our garden sign is perfect for me!
Birdhouse is cool! Little bags in front have silver earrings in them. And the candles on the left are Longaberger candles....scents are so cool. Tomato leaf, Citrus Sage, and Golden Pear.
The little trellis will be great in a pot on the porch. And the little bike planter in front is cool for on the porch too!
It's like Christmas all over again! Oh and the snowman sled is great too! I love that!
