Christmas cookies-baked and frosted by my daughters, H and H.
Our decorated mantle.
Handmade gifts from sweet friends.
In addition to a ribbon-candy garland made from felt...
...my daughter, L, made a felt ball garland, too.
My 'little girls' (twins) were in charge of the sugar cookies this year...
...and they frosted them with homemade butter cream and edible pearls. Yum!
Since I didn't put a tree up this year...
...we put the ribbon-candy garland on the mantle with our stocking holders.
The last photo shows some of my wonderful Christmas gifts...
...lovingly handmade by dear friends and hugely appreciated...by me!!

Thanks so much, Terrie! Believe me, I truly appreciate how lucky I am to have such amazing daughters...and I didn't even mention that my eldest girl,S, gave me a framed photograph taken of the two of us on the London Eye a couple of years ago. It was a beautiful, 'happy memories' photograph that I didn't know existed...and I cried when I opened it. I just LOVE my girls!!:)
