It's Beginning...

...to look a lot like

Christmas.

As you may know, I collect Santas.
I'm trying to control this, and only get ONE each year.

Here's this year's.
It's a Jim Shore design.  I like his whimsical figures.
The birds and birdhouses fit in with my other obsession of gardening.

 I like to find Santas when we're on trips.
This one was found in Cloudcroft, New Mexico, this fall.

Add to the collection...add to the memories of the find.

Hope your holiday preparations are coming along smoothly.

Happy Gardening...

Take Down....

The big problem with being an over-achiever with decorating for Christmas...

sooner or later you have to take it all down...

pack it all up...

and put it all away 'til next year.

OK...whining is over.  Back to it.

~~Focus, Linda~~
