I haven't been on here in a while, life just gets in the way I'm sorry to say. We also have a new puppy we rescued named Joy. Very appropriate I think for this time of year. We rescued Joy from South Charlotte Dog Rescue. She was in a high kill shelter and SCDR rescued her and we rescued her from them. She is a black Lab mix. They say she is mixed with Great Pyrenees, not really seeing that. More black lab I think. She is a cutie!!

I love this time of year!! Just brings wonderful times to mind this holiday season! The grandboys are 2 and 4 years old now, so this Christmas season it is so nice to enjoy it through the eyes of a child.
I hope everyone can enjoy this time of year and remember the reason for the season! BELIEVE!!
Your house is beautiful! I love that you use items from your childhood to decorate your home now. -Jenn
ReplyDeleteYour holiday decor is always lovely, Sherri. This Christmas is no exception. Enjoy having Joy as part of your family!
ReplyDeleteAll your decorations are beautiful! You've given me a few ideas, too...We have a nine month old Lab pup who keeps bringing in pine cones. I think I may fill a bowl and add a star as you've done. It can be Bella's Christmas contribution!
ReplyDeleteI always put out my first Christmas stocking (and since we're spillin', I'm 61!).
Congratulations on your puppy, too. Time will tell (in size) how much Great Pyrenees she has in her blood. ;-) She's adorable.
Merry Christmas to you and yours!
