I hope a lot of you get some words crossed off today! :)
Bonus words for today:
I LOVE snow! :) Last winter was so mild, and so far this year has been too. I've really missed having snow - hopefully we'll have at least ONE good snow this winter! In 2009, we had several storms, 2 feet on top of 1 foot, etc. I admit that was a little much. :) It's so pretty though, and I love having fun sledding, having snowball fights, and I don't even mind shoveling. Here's a picture we may have posted before, after the ordeal of taking Pepper out in the 2 feet of snow. That is what's the most difficult about winter weather...of course, I've never had to drive in it. ;)
Have you ever been to a cookie exchange? We posted about one we went to 4 years ago here. It was SO fun! There were lots of different kinds of yummy cookies to try and bring home.
We have several different Christmas table runners that decorate our two tables. A couple were handmade gifts from friends, one we've had for years, and the snowman one I made last year for Mom. Don't they just make a table look so festive?

Sarah,
Three cheers for table runners and SNOW! Honestly, we don't have any "official" table runners, but we try to make the seasons and holidays more festive by just cutting and fringing an appropriately patterned piece of fabric. Then we add a few candles or decorations and voila, a very inexpensive, but decorative addition to the family table. Since some of us sit at the table for homeschool work, we get to enjoy the festivity all morning AND at meal time, too.
Loved seeing your snow pic - makes me miss NY. Praying for a "little" snow, just for the beauty of it.

Hi Sarah,
I love the table runners! They are so cute and festive. I have a snowman one (yes I decorate a lot with snowmen too!) and a new one I bought this year which is white lace with a manger scene on it. I always love table runners, I have a coffee table in the living room and always update it for the season. I have no love of snow though. :( I live in NJ and we do get the big storms on occasion. I like flurries :) God Bless! Have a wonderful weekend!

The table runners are wonderful, Sarah. I don't like these mild winters either. It's unnatural. Happy Christmas to you all.
