Inspired memories lead to the warm display of childhood...

I am inspired by an amazing woman....she is an amazing creative spirit, revealing the beautiful creativity of our Awesome God! After coming home from her house as we celebrated Thanksgiving, I had the urge, the urge to start decorating for Christmas.

I am reminded of God's warm embrace as He sent His Son, Jesus. The other reminders of childhood from the candy cane's, to the hot chocolate and yummy marshmallows...they remind me of when I was a little girl being warmed by the fire and my mom's sweet smothering love over her girls.

The memories led to the simple display...


Hot chocolate and marshmallows

Some of my ornaments I have made displayed on the dried branches.

If you'd like to see who inspires me...just click 'here' and 'here'
(When you visit her website, click on 'blog' and at the end of the post she will give the yummiest hot chocolate recipe you ever had).
