Home at Christmas time...

I'm standing in the laundry room looking into the kitchen and beyond...One of my most treasured possessions...a set of Christmas china handed down to me from Mom from the 1950's which we ate on at Christmas time...
All the gifts are wrapped and ready to take to daughter's Christmas Eve party and gift exchange...
Holly china that Mom bought for me in the 1980's...displayed on my baker's rack...
I would love to stay and chat with you...but...somebody has made a horrible mess in my kitchen and I get to clean it all up...after it's all clean, there's more treats to make to take to daughter's Eve and Christmas Day parties!
MERRY CHRISTMAS from The Gates to All You Darlings! Chat with you later...drive safe...stay safe...be safe...

  1. I just love how nice your house always looks! My mom has a Christmas china set she uses each year for our Christmas celebrations like yours but with out the red around the rim. Then last year my father in law and his girlfriend gave me my own Christmas china set like yours just without the rim but just slightly different in design then what my moms has. Your packages are all wrapped so nicely!! Take a ton of pics from Eve and Christmas Day!!! Merry Christmas Kathy and Gary<3 Us
