Christmas Pics..this and that

I had to throw in a few more pictures from the Christmas Season.  Here is Gram with the girls.  She gives them an ornament for their tree every year.  This year PK1 got a bird (she and Gram are both very interested in birds) and PK2 got a Winnie the Pooh.













We attended a Christmas party at the beautiful little red house in German Village with the 20 foot Christmas tree:


























We celebrated PK1's 7th birthday with Gram and Papa:
















Gram and Papa got her a stuffed animal polar bear which she loved!













And for my mom and sister, here is the cabinet I painted this November..all dressed up for Christmas:
































I also painted the dining room and PD removed the dark wood chair rail that divided the walls.  I also replaced the heavy velvet curtains with lighter ones that let in a lot more light:


And here is the piano.  PD called this the Catholic Vintage Christmas because I used his mom's vintage ornaments and I have been really into those catholic candles with the saints on them.  I think they are cool looking for $1.99 a piece.  I also found a vintage plate at the thrift store with the Last Supper on it.  I love it:

I love all the new decorating projects you've done. Beautiful and creative! And I'm very thankful that the girls have such wonderful grandparents closeby....that's a true blessing for them.
