I Choose Plastic
But each of my grandbabies will be under the age of two for Christmas and they are very curious...especially Elijah & Charlotte. I don't want to worry about something breaking and someone getting hurt, and I want the adults to be able to relax while we're in that room ~ so the tree is going to have a very different look this year. I started working on it last night. I was also babysitting so I had a little help. She loves these ornaments and because they're plastic she can examine them to her heart's content.
The tree still needs some work, but here's a couple tiny peeks. I snuck in the little house...just to make me feel better about all the plastic! I need to find a few more things like it.
The plastic is pretty much in place. I just need to find some soft stuff to tuck in the holes in the branches. I'll post some pictures when it's complete....maybe! The tree will be so different from last year...but it'll be perfect for exploring little hands. 'Cause even if they're told no they're going to manage to touch a few. And they'll squeeze them...but it'll be okay....because they're plastic!

Making New Memories
The food and fellowship was wonderful.
Here's a peek at each table.
Actually there are two peeks at this table ~ the first one is Friday evening and the second is Saturday ~ after the goldfish arrived!
Here's a pretty angel themed table ~ with some sweet smelling hand lotions for favors.
Guests at this table received a "Casting Crowns" CD. I love the fun centerpiece!
Sparkling cider fit right in at these silvery place settings. Love the glitter too!
These lighthouse plates are perfect for a Maryland luncheon.
I love all the crystal on this table ~ and the colors are so pretty.
Mirror tile for a placemat ~ the reflection made a wonderful design on the ceiling!!
Everything was just amazing. Despite the nasty weather outside we were all warm and cozy inside. Three hours to relax and enjoy one another's company and to eat yummy food! Yes, we enjoyed our friendly gathering with candlelight and pretty little favors.
But the best part was focusing on why we celebrate Christmas, the best part was remembering the birth of our Redeemer....the greatest gift of all.
