Today is the final day in the Merriment Chain hosted by Misi and Robyn. Thank you both. I had a great time taking part in the chain. I met some new bloggers, saw some fantastic decorations, did some creating, drooled over some yummy looking food, and blogged daily.

Merry Christmas to you all~Becky

Merriment Day 21...Helping Others

 
Tonights post is about the little things we can do for others. I have a coworker whose husband has cancer and the prognosis is not good. We have decided to do a meal "chain" for her family so that she has one less thing to worry about. Tomorrow is my day, so I have baked some lasagna. I will add a bag of salad mix, some bread sticks, and chocolate chip cookie bars for dessert.
 
 
If you could, I'm asking if you can say an extra prayer for her family tonight.

Hugs to you all~Becky

Day 20 of the Merriment Chain

 
This is the scene that greets my visitors when they stop over for a visit. I have really cut back on my decorating this year. Simple seems to be the theme for me and I'm ok with that.
 
 
 
Have a great night~Becky

Merriment Day 15...Goodies from the Antique Mall

 
These guys are our big purchase at the antique mall. I made the mistake of showing my hubby Marie's collection of elves. He collects them too, but Marie's collection had his beat. So....off to the antique mall we go. As you can see, he found quite a few. Sorry for the poor picture quality...a photographer I am not.
 
 
 
 
 Here they are in the family room.



I behaved myself and only came home with 1 grater.

Off to blog hop a bit before heading to work.

Have a wonderful day~Becky

Merriment Day 14

 
 
It's day 14 of the Merriment Chain hosted by Misi and Robyn (see links on my sidebar). Yesterday hubby and I spent the day at the antique mall and had a great time. I know I promised to show you what we bought , but I find that I am out of time. I was busy cleaning up the house & now I need to leave for work soon. The packages aren't even unpacked, so today you get to see the small bowl rack in my downstairs powder room.
 
 
Hopefully I can show you what we bought tomorrow.
 
Have a wonderful day~Becky

Merriment Day 11...A Family Tradition

 
I headed over to my parent's house tonight after work to take part in our annual cookie baking party.
It has become a family tradition to get together every year and bake Christmas cookies. Me, my mom, sister,and 2 nieces had a marathon baking session tonight. My sons used to take part too when they were younger, but now only one is home and he only wants to eat them, not help make them.
 
 


My oldest niece with her cookies. Her favorite are sugar cut out cookies.

 
And the little one didn't make it throught the night.

 
I'll be visiting the others taking part in the chain in the morning. After working 11 hours today and then baking, this girl is pooped.
 
Night all.
