Christmas Unwrapped

Merry Christmas from Chatty Kelly! Here are some pictures.

(I know I said I wouldn't post today...but this isn't a devotion...just pictures!)


This is my dogs' version of bunk beds. They always lay like this! Notice the little one under the pillow. He loves to be covered up.







Our Tree:



This is me (sans make up...shield your eyes!) with my puppy, Buddy. I love that dog!



The entry hall...



Close up of the porcelain church on the entry buffet:



Close up of porcelain nativity:



My favorite wreath hanging in the entry hall:



It's theme is "isn't he the carpenter?" Notice the tools (marked by the small white boxes). A saw and a lathe....



A level, a Carpenters "L", and a hammer handle....





Lots of presents too. More pictures of the kids with their gifts posted on the Kids Say blog!

Hey, Kelly. I've never seen a wreath themed like that. The doggies are SO stinkin' cute sleeping like that! How do you stand it?!

I love the dog photo! I didn't notice the one under at first. LOL.

Thanks for the comment at Writing FUNdamentals, and of course you can quote me. I need to read that quote myself, so I can get to work. I've been lazy over the holidays. :)
