I’m wishing each and every person who stops by a Merry Christmas! I have enjoyed our blog time and getting to know you. Please have a delightful time with your families near and far for after all….that is what the holidays are all about.
This year all the kids will be at our house so everyone is bringing all their gifts by to open with us. We are stacked to the branches, as you can see. Santa will only have to make one stop for several families, which should cut down on his stopping time. 🙂
And for those of you who would like to make a delicious gluten-free cookie for those who are gluten-free on your list I am posting a wonderful and simple cookie recipe here:

The elevator called and asked if Terry wanted to bring in all the rest of his corn…they were a tad short and could use it—the catch was it has to be there before December 31st.
