Memories of Christmas 2019

We had a wonderful Christmas. In the days leading up to the 25th I made my usual Peanut Butter/Rice Krispies recipe ( that have to be frozen then dipped in chocolate). I don't know what I did wrong but they would not stick together so I decided to skip them this year. Well, my sons weren't about to let that happen so they made them ( and from now on they can do it every year. YAY!!)



I sure should have run a brush through my hair before this picture of myself with daughter Sheila and GD Kate.


Youngest son bought me this absolutely beautiful hanging thing that I cannot describe but it is here on the top right hand of the photo. I must find a better picture that shows the entire thing.. It is battery powered and turns quietly as if a gentle breeze is moving it.


 Found one...


Here's a photo of me and DH as well as daughter Sheila and youngest and oldest sons.  Too bad we didn't get one of  all of us. Oh well, there's always another chance.


I'm off to the library to pick up a copy of Marilla of Green Gables, a novel by Sarah McCoy, that one of you dear people mentioned in a recent post.

Thanks for coming by,



Granny M.

    I will have to try the peanut butter candy next year. The best thing was to have your family there. Merry Christmas. Phil

    Happy to hear that you enjoyed a nice Christmas with your family. I enjoyed seeing the photos of your family (or at least some of your family:). As the mother of sons, I especially enjoyed the one of your sons in the kitchen. That hanging thing is pretty and I imagine very cool in person.

    Thanks for sharing those lovely pics of all of you together! You'll have to send G & J over this way to make peanut butter balls for me too - interesting how you still make this recipe that you got from me so many years ago and I don't make them anymore (too much work!).

    I loved seeing you and your beautiful family as well as glimpses of your home. How fun that your boys decided to make those rice krispies themselves. Sometimes tradition is just not allowed to be broken. :-) That's how our kids feel too.
    Blessings,
    Betsy

    It is so good to meet your family, even if it is in pictures!! Looks like a Merry Christmas was had by all, and absolutely let those boys take over the rice krispies treat!! Happy New Year!

    Those are lovely family pics! Looks like you had a sweet Christmas. I'd call that gift a wind chime perhaps? It's lovely. Our visiting family are now leaving, and soon Adam and I will be back to our quiet, normal life.

    It's good to see you with your family. And I do like the idea of "favorite cookie? You make it!"

    Let me know how you like Marilla of Green Gables! I'm always a bit suspicious of "spin off" novels but I await your opinion.
