show and tell sunday


since i'm such a slacker and didn't decorate or bake or anything else that all of you super moms did, i figured i would just show you my mom's beautiful decorations (well a little of them, this would be a novel if i showed all of them)



some wonderful yummies:


and the piece d'resistance:



i LOVED the ornaments hung from the ceiling over the fireplace. it was simply gorgeous! and yes, those are stockings for her children the youngest is 26 y/o. i love that we still get to "see what santa brought us" lol

i tried to place on limit on the number of presents (10) my mom was allowed to buy for us, but it didn't work too well. i think we all ended up with at least 15-20 each. here is the aftermath:


a couple of funny t-shirts:


i think this one won the funniest and most dead-on award:


gotta keep this short so my leg doesn't start hurting again. more later...
