Merry Christmas Marie! I enjoyed a closeup of your beautiful ornaments. I got a kick out of the holstein cow. He reminds me of the border that I have in my computer room that is that type of folk artish.

What lovely trees! Mine is very plain this year but at least it is up and done. I enjoyed seeing the special ornaments and am thankful Marie began this thread.

Merry Christmas everyone!

This bicycle appeared many times. Several times when a bike was a Christmas gift, later when a boyfriend was dismissed but with mixed feelings: "A woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle".
