A GREAT BIG THANK YOU goes to my friend Jeanne @ the Backyard Neighbor. I was fortunate enough to be one of her winners this past week. I was so excited when I saw a package on my front stoop, that I immediately ripped into it before I could even take any pictures (lol). This is what I found. The give a way was for the beautiful ornaments...Imagine my surprise when I saw the fun little goodies she'd included with my wonderful prize. A stackable Santa that my youngest son has declared a "favorite" of his. Can you imagine the wonderful little treats I could stash in here and surprise him with? And it's hard to see, but laying next to the ornaments is a cute little Santa "post it" notepad. THANK YOU JEANNE!!! As we say round these parts...YOU'RE TOTALLY AWESOME!!!
It's Monday! You know what that means? It's time for Blue Monday, so graciously hosted by Sally @ Smiling Sally. Be sure to visit Sally's and see who else is strutting in blue today.
It's Donald Duck. Donald has been hanging on my tree since 1985...
This Santa bell was given to me by my father. He found it one day while he was out perusing yard sales...
A Kinkade ornament gifted to me by a family member. Most know of my love of Kinkade...I got these ornaments from "House of Lloyd" over fifteen years ago (could be even longer!).
The blue is just one of four different colors.
And how they're usually displayed. I love the way the light plays off the jewel tones... All dressed up for Christmas...I told you I love Kinkade...Thanks for stopping by and spending some of you Monday with me. I hope you are enjoying your day!
Remember that half the joy of achievement is in the anticipation.

So many lovely blue things! Jeanne is a special lady; you cleaned up there! Your items are treasures indeed, as each has a memory attached. I love the song, Happy Birthday, Jesus.

I stopped by today for Blue Monday. Your ornaments are beautiful! I was delighted when I heard Happy Birthday playing because today is my birthday. I know they children are singing happy birthday to Jesus, and I'm sure happy to celebrate his birthday, but I enjoyed letting them sing to me as well. God Bless You, Faith
