Better Than Last Year!

That last picture that I posted was so pathetic that I felt it needed something to balance it out. And so, here is our festive little mantle to try and take all of our minds off of the forlorn bit of shrubbery pictured a bit lower on the page. Much cheerier don't you think?

So, Bekah and Co., I tried to post a very exhilarated comment here a week or so ago after finding your blog--a happy to find you here sort of thing. But I have this problem with my blogger account, that I can never remember my password. If autofill remembers it for me, well and good; but far too often it doesn't, and then I type up paragraphs of comment only to be brought up short at the sign-in point. All of which to say, I'm delighted you're here, online, and am loving the pics and the stories. Your mantel is gorgeous.

A merry, merry Christmas to ye olde Englande and ye younge Merkles, from the Idaho Roises!

Hey Claire! So very nice of you to be exhilarated that we have a blog! We're terrible at keeping it updated though. But you never know . . . I might start getting into the routine of the thing!

Have a fabulous and very Merry Christmas - and blow a kiss to good old Moscow for us!

If you click on the picture, you can see a big, legible version. #8 says "Granny."
