Fresh Pine & Twine

 


Ahhhh... Christmas Eve morning. Waking up we went to one of our favorite coffee shops where some girls were playing the baby grand piano and singing Christmas songs. We sat on the sofa by the fireplace and Christmas tree, secretly pleased the café wasn't busy. I would be remiss if I didn't mention the foam top on the coffee intended to look like something Christmasy turned obscene. David refused to even sip my Sugar & Spice Latte and we laughed. 

A stop at a pretty Christmas shop with fresh florals, we grabbed some fresh pine. Fresh pine & twine made the packages pretty and they smell good, too. It was team work with all the presents we had to accomplish and the Christmas tree is completely surrounded by presents and gift bags and family arriving in hours. 

The lights on the tree are shining bright and me, I'm enjoying a cup of coffee and a quiet home before the production begins. My grandbabies will be arriving soon and seeing all the presents. Their childlike thrill and presents begging to be unwrapped... Imagine, the angels in heaven bursting in excitement as Jesus is about to be born that very first Christmas day.  

Merry Christmas
