SCAVENGER HUNT SUNDAY 12.11.11

SCAVENGER HUNT SUNDAY ~ 12.11.11
I confess ~ I'm addicted to SCAVENGER HUNT SUNDAY... have you given it a try? 
This week's words were somewhat "seasonal"... Less is More, Holiday Lights, Ornaments, Cup of Cheer, & Nativity

LESS IS MORE
Usually the fireplace mantle is covered with lights + greenery + the "Large Santas"... with JPE being gone the past week, I re-evaluated how much decorating I wanted to do... AND put away upon our return after holiday visiting... So, I went with LESS IS MORE this Christmas!


HOLIDAY LIGHTS
Oops! the camera tilted as I was taking a picture... a glimpse of our Christmas tree with HOLIDAY LIGHTS!!


ORNAMENTS ~ SANTA collage
I collect Santa ORNAMENTS... here are a few (top left, clockwise) Red Tummy Santa, Big Bear Santa (gift from JPE), Three Thin Santas, Bearded Santa... previous Santa posts can be seen hErE, HeRE & hEre!

CUP OF CHEER
Ummm... it's anything hot! Nothing better than Cranberry Biscotti dipped in a warm CUP OF CHEER. Picked up JPE on Friday evening & he spent Saturday baking multiple batches of his delicious biscotti.

NATIVITY
This NATIVITY actually belongs to ACE... I found a box of decorations that she hasn't moved to her place! During their college years, I stored the bulk of the girls "seasonal items" which they would take back with them after Thanksgiving, each year. Some day, they will both have storage for ALL their childhood treasures, including their various boxes of Christmas decorations. My parents bought this handmade NATIVITY in Mexico, and passed it to ACE when they downsized to a condo. Should I wrap this up as a Christmas present for ACE, so it'll find its way home this year?

Already thinking ahead to next week's SCAVENGER HUNT SUNDAY... the words are: What is It? Children / Fur Babies Sleeping, Joy, Window, & Half.
