The Christmas Window

 
I wanted to share my kitchen window with you today,  since it is where I've started my Christmas decorating this season.
I wasn't going to purchase any decorations this year since I have way more than I need or want already,
but I couldn't resist the white reindeer when I saw them at Canadian Tire.
And I knew just where I wanted to place them-on this little shelf in our kitchen window.


Can you see the snow outside our window?
It is definitely a Winter Wonderland here in Northern Ontario!
I went outside today long enough to collect a few greens Tim had gotten for me.
At 2F it didn't take long for my face to feel the chill..
But it was also so refreshing.
It was so calm, clean and bright out there!
It is days like today that make me realize why I love living in the North so much...
But that, my friends, could fill a whole book.
So I'll save it for another time...
*******************************************************
I am making the five hour trip south Friday to the Soo(Sault Ste. Marie).
I am praying that STAPLES will do right by me and restore to my laptop the programs that were lost while they had it in their possession.
Until this happens I will just have to be happy with two picture post I guess!
What is it they say-that less is more?
I hope so.

  5. I love your vignette on the window shelf. The old lamp and the silver tray with the deer are perfect touches to your climate at Christmas. The deer are reminiscent of the vintage ones of the 40's and 50's and are really sweet. I hope you have some success with your computer tomorrow. That's a long drive and had better be worth it! Blessings. Pam

  8. the reindeer are beautiful, your window is lovely, enchanted forest kind of looking,
    Stay safe on the drive to the Sault, that highway is so unpredictable in winter, which I know you know first hand,

    It's funny, you love where you live, but most people wouldn't.
    People either love where they live or hate it. I love where I live too! hope you get the computer working.../files returned...

  18. Kimberly,

    Brrr........I remember those day of walking outside in snow 4,5,6,7,+ feet tall.

    I love your window setup, it pretty and festive at the same time.

    I've been to S.S.M. before when I was 16 years of age, a field trip with high school mates.

    Hopefully, Staples will recover your computer so it's up and working correctly.

  27. Hi, Hope you had good luck getting your computer programs restored… Scary!

    Your kitchen Christmas Window --and the SNOW --is gorgeous… Wish we'd get a little of that white stuff here.

    Thanks for your sweet comment about my 101 yr. old father-in-law dying. He lived an amazing life--and never once was in the hospital. That's an inspiration.

    Merry Christmas.
    Hugs,
    Betsy
