The Good - Every year we used to have a Christmas Eve party so that friends and family could pop in and be fed before taking their respective children home to bed and finishing their Christmas Eve jobs. My brother would dress as Santa and brought presents saying that his sleigh was too heavy and that he had to lose some weight in order for it to get off the ground. The children either loved it or were terrified!
I love this Santa picture and have been wanting to use it. It's a real Santa Santa to me.
And the not so bad.......... When I was seventeen I was desperate for driving lessons for Christmas and I was so disappointed on Christmas morning when I got a Puffin quilt instead. Ungrateful or what!?! Puffin quilts were the crème de la crème of quilts and were quite expensive but you couldn’t drive one! Little did I know then that that quilt would see me through college and nurse training, my little bit of home wherever I went. It was one of the first Scandinavian quilts to hit this country, made from goose down not polyester, and could squidge up into the smallest of bags. I can’t remember when I finally had to throw it out but I know I've never had a quilt like it since!

i love your journaling plus I totally love that picture of the green bulbs
Love your retrospective on the puffin quilt & how it took some time to grow on you! I recognize that font -- but can't figure out how you're making the lettering white. Are you printing it out on white paper or is this LO all digital?
