Sun Drops on Roses

and whiskers on kittens,
Creme colored ponies,
and warm woolen mittens.

Brown paper packages all tied up in string,
these are a few of my favorite things!

For those of you that have emailed me - this is how I came up with my 'alias'. I know it's supposed to be rain and although I do enjoy the rain, I like the sun so much better.

Trying to think of my favorite things as the holidays creep up and there is so much to do. I can't wait to see the surprise and delight on the children's faces when they open their gifts.

Big Guy came up with a great idea of opening one gift a day. There are only two days left, but that will cut down on at least a little of the mayhem. Two of my siblings and their families will be coming over on Christmas day to exchange gifts and have dinner so the kids will have lots of excitement going that day.
