Before I settle down for the first time in forever to spend time with Colin wrapping a few gifts, eating pizza, and listening to Christmas carols (the visiting starts tomorrow!), I wanted to wish you all my deepest and heartfelt wishes that you experience a fulfilling, joyful, warm, and inspiring holiday time, one that you will remember fondly and bring up at future Christmas gatherings.
May it be filled with moving music, satisfying food, loving company, and much merriment.
All my love and appreciation, now and always,
Steph
Merry Christmas to you and Colin and Lucy.
(And watch out for the Gitchi Manitou!)
Merry Christmas, Steph! May the New Year be filled with promise and prosperity!
Aren’t you little miss hallmark.?! Ok, miss sappy pants (crotchless), right back at ya and a happy new year too!!
I like that picture – very nice.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you and yours.

Merry Christmas to you too!
Thank you, everyone! Hope your holidays were (are?) wonderful! I’m back to work today, but I have New Year’s Day and the 2nd off (and the 31st if I can move over two patients!)
Hooray for breaks!! I want even more time…
Merry Christmas, Steph!
I love that painting you chose. Gives me warm fuzzy holiday feelings. I hope you, Colin, and Lucy had a picture-perfect Christmas day, and may you have a wonderful New Year.
Regards,
Kelly
Btw – is the photo in this post Kinkade? I love it!
Hey Kelly,
Thank you, and same to you! I know what you mean about the picture. It’s why I chose it. I really miss my family this year. It’s been so long since we’ve all been together for Christmas, so when I see this pic, I imagine them all coming in from Malta, England, etc., and visiting us and staying over. It’s why I want the bigger house.
Hey Dube! I have no idea. I tried to find it online, but I admit I didn’t try too hard. I’m having internet issues. All I can tell you is that it’s called “Hilton Head Christmas Dinner.”
Dube: I didn’t think it was Kincaid, and when I checked his Holiday gallery on his website, I didn’t see the painting. Wow, though, you should visit the gallery. I know people think he’s cheesy, but I love his paintings, too. I have three puzzles of his art, even (I love puzzles!).
Thanks for the tip Steph! I will definitely check his Holiday gallery. I love his use of light in his paintings.
Ditto! I could actually see me buying one or two if I had the money!
