Christmas 2010 at the New House

Well, what an exciting week this has been. The kids all came in to see the new house, and the grands, and the great grands. We laughed, cried, played, ate, you name it. I even tried Sushi for the first time...I can leave it...LOL....but it was different. Daughter Karen treated us all to a special drink...Mimosa...that I did like quite well. But these are the pictures that will live on in our memories....
The beds were all ready with the quilts that I love...This is Nanny's old bed...

This is the favorite bed everyone wants to sleep on...it has an old feather tick mattress on it, and it as soft as a cloud...

This is what I call the Middle bed...it is queen size...Photobucket

This is a twin...ready for the kids to sleep in...but we had another memory...Three little monkeys, jumping on the bed, they jumped so high, they hit each other's head...and Lacy ended up with a black eye for Christmas...

Even Tiffany's old baby cradle came out of storage to hold two new little ones..

The wood stove worked great...both of them kept the house nice and warm..Benny got up early and made sure of that...

We had a small western tree on the table...boots, horses, and all...and loved the table Karen made years ago...she really laughed when she saw it...Joel had his eyes open so wide, I had to laugh...."Is that the table ?" Yes, that was the one he sat at when he was little...

I love my stained glass piece over my sink...and my bottles of vinegars with herbs and oils...
