Happy Holidays

The holiday season has arrived. 

I was just chatting with a friend about memories of childhood Christmas celebrations with my family (all of whom are now gone). Those memories are so precious. 

Here's my favorite photo from back then. My mother dressed Richard and me in our finest attire and posed us in front of a roaring fireplace. The fireplace was fake (cardboard) but the love was real.

    1. Yes, they are. The fireplace was literally cardboard. It fascinated me as a child.

  3. Love the fireplace! My MIL made one like that I think for her church kiddos. But it was funny in their house because they had a gas log brick fireplace.

    Feels like summer just ended but December is already roaring through!
