~A Christmas Visit~

 Yesterday afternoon we spent the day at my cousins home for a Christmas visit. We are very close and always have a wonderful time when we are together! The food was amazing and there was a lot of chit chat going on but I managed to snap a few pictures of her beautiful entry and living room.

Thanks so much for stopping by and wishing you all A Very Happy New Year! See you in 2012!

    Hi Martina, your cousin has one beautiful home, loved the lace curtain in one picture and also Chloe so cute! I was drawn to the Nativity Set has, I've wanted one for a while but never get one. I did buy one at Macy's on sale but when I got it home there was no Baby Jesus so it has to go back...bummer!
    Thanks for sharing your cousins home!

    O, I just love cousins. So glad you are close with one of yours. Me, too...I have one a year younger than me and, altho we don't get to see ea other often now, we were like sisters, growing up. Her nickname is Skeet and I love Skeet a LOT.:)

    These photos are awesome..her house is really pretty. Tell me, what are the stockings hanging from on the window...a tension rod?...sure looks great.

    Your cousin clearly has the same decorating genes as you. All of it is lovely - the vase filled with pennygum and the peace sign are my favourites. Wishing you and your family a wonderful 2012! x Sharon
