I started decorating for Christmas a few weeks ago. I set out candles, silver and pine cones; that's as far as I got with the decorating when I got the news that my brother had passed away unexpectedly from a heart attack. He was 52. It kind of knocks the wind out of you. I feel like I'm moving through quicksand.
I was going to get out some more decorations today, and I just couldn't. So I decided to take photos of what I have and post it.
I know these photos won't win any prizes, but it's been weeks since I took any photos or posted to my blog, and I enjoyed the process again. I've missed it.
I love Christmas. I'll just be celebrating in a quiet, reflective way this year.
That's Smokey Bear curled up in the sunshine on his cat tree. He has the best seat in the house.
Christmas blessings to you and yours.
