The day before Christmas I recieved two lovely gifts in the mail. The first package was from
Mystele, from a trade we did. She sent me a lovely ornament, a print of a wonderfully smiling girl, and a package of paper cut outs (they are all wonderful, but the binoculars are my favourite!)

I also received a beautiful quilted postcard from
Chris. It was from the Great Big Stitched Postcard Swap that I
blogged about before. I was fortunate to receive 2 postcards from Chris!
When I got these packages in the mail, it made me smile and think "its just like Christmas!" and then realized oh yah it is Christmas!
I hope it was Merry for everyone!
P.S. I was thrilled to receive from my husband a
online course with Misty Mawn that starts in January (and a new hockey stick!)
