Images of Christmas

I am missing my dear Canon soooo much....
I can hardly explain.
In its absence I have come to appreciate Instagram which has allowed me a certain level of 
comfort with my old iPhone 3 camera.

So, in the meanwhile, images of Christmas are simply told through
Instagram.
Here is a little update on the decorating around here.


22 years of ornament collecting

Carved Santas by my sister

The most symmetrical tree we have ever had!!

Double White Amaryllis in the living room
Off to complete our Christmas shopping this weekend.

  3. I love your sister's carved Santas. What great keepsakes to pass along to your children. Your tree is beautiful and such a great shape too. When is your camera supposed to be ready for you? I hope before Christmas.

  6. I love your tree = I think we have very similar tastes - I have one of those same glass ornaments from a local antique shop! My paper whites are just starting to bloom and it is so lovely to see! Everything is looking so cozy at your house - you are looking very ready for Christmas!

  11. Love your Amaryllis (my paperwhites are nearly flowering) and the gorgeous and very individual tree decorations. I've been collecting mine for years and years as well, though I think I now need a bigger tree like yours, because they are just too overcrowded (I've had a fake tree for years and years also !).
