Happy Holidays


I didn't have any really Christmasy photos to share so I thought this one from my computers "stock" photos would do nicely instead. Also, there are many people who may not celebrate Christmas for whatever reason and so I really just wanted a nice wintery feeling photo so I can say that I hope whatever you do celebrate, you have a safe and happy Holiday season.

Who Wants Spring??

Since it seems this winter is lasting a little longer and is a little more rough than usual for most, I thought I'd do some lovely items to cheer us all up. My search on Etsy used the word "Spring" and these are some beauties I came up with.


Summer Garden Beaded Necklace - Kim Smith

Ok so I got ahead of myself with this necklace from Kim Smith with it being a Summer necklace but it is so beautiful I couldn't resist including it.


Little Spring Tulip Cookies - Lori's Place


Rainbow Flower Headbands - And Jane


Mango Papaya 3oz Votives - Classy Chic Boutique


Raspberry Sorbet Flower with Beanie - Ooh La La Baby


Enjoy!

What Happened To Autumn?


While blog hopping, I've noticed that for some of you Autumn seems to have lasted a week at best. Sheesh, they even had to postpone one of the Baseball games of the Playoffs being held in Denver because of extreme cold. The field was covered in frost and they couldn't play. I have to say that last weekend we were sitting by the pool here in Las Vegas but as of yesterday it looks like we are starting to get our Fall weather. It was windy and cloudy yesterday and today, more of the same. We probably won't get much in the way of rain until later in the year which is always a shame since we really need it. You know it does get pretty cold here in the desert during the winter months.

Yeah, okay I know it isn't going to be anything like it will be for those of you back East or in places such as Colorado but for us here it is real cold. I always found it funny how people moved to Las Vegas and would complain all summer about the temperatures when they are well above 100, sometimes over 110. Then when it gets to Winter they complain about it being cold!

Fortunately, we do keep a few warm weather jackets around and of course, since I used to crochet I have quite a few hats around. Plus we have to have them around for those Summer visits to San Francisco (lol) and when we head back to England which inevitably is at Christmas time. I did catch the weather forecast for this weekend in Las Vegas and it looks like I will be by the pool again, no need to pack away the bikini yet. So till then I'll just stay indoors away from the wind and cold. I just hope all of you are able to stay warm and I'll be thinking of you when I'm lounging poolside this weekend!
