ReplyDeleteHave a merry December week.

ps........yes, I heard there was a shortage of live Christmas trees this year. I was told that where I live people often get a permit and can cut their own tree in the woods. And I think some might have artificial trees also, as I was talking with someone at the store who does. : )
Precious!! She is adorable!
