What a great mail day…

Mar 10, 2008

Yes, Sketchy is just as much fun today as she was 37 years ago. Look at what came in the mail today. I still can­not believe my eyes. I am once again the proud owner of my favorite child­hood doll. It just goes to show you if you believe in Santa mag­i­cal moments hap­pen at any age.

And YES… we still have our Christ­mas tree up (but it sure is a great photo op for the mini album I plan on cre­at­ing). Once Christ­mas is over CHA kicks in and I never seem to get it down. I thought for SURE I would get it down before March this year since it was a much eas­ier tree to dec­o­rate than last years. Oh well, I don’t turn the lights on like that makes it any bet­ter but the neigh­bors have come to real­ize this is me and they like me anyway.

Note to self… take the tree down before Spring Break!

    Lisa– Your child­hood recre­ated… so adorable. The tree was still up for an excel­lent rea­son and photo op. Oh, look! Sketchy is scrap­ping already… I see an album cover in the mak­ing. Love you.

    i can­not tell you how pleased i am to see that some­one has their tree up longer than i! i started to take it down mid jan­u­ary, i work nights and felt i had not enough time to enjoy it, so for one last evening, i poured a glass of wine, grabbed my favourite scrap­ing mag­a­zines, and snug­gled up on the floor in the din­ing room, drew the drapes so the neigh­bors had no idea the tree was still up …and enjoyed the evening, then did not have the heart to take it down it was truly gor­geous nine feet of sparkling glow­ing christ­mas! stunning!

    i did man­age to start tak­ing it down mid feb­ru­ary haha the din­ing room was tree free by valen­tines day! it still makes me long for decem­ber when i look at the baren din­ing room tree­less, no sparkle no glam noth­ing! oh well 8 more months before we can do it again hahaha..

    loved your post!
