Doll Houses

HAPPY PINK SATURDAY

 

 

Ringing In the New Year

 

 

This is such a cute Marx tin doll house from the 50's.

Love the pink color.

 

 

Look at all the furniture that comes with it.

 

 

I love playing with doll houses.

 

 

 

Sweet kitchen furniture.

I enjoyed Cindy's blog last week at http://artbookstea.blogspot.com/2012/12/snow-pictures-and-billy-jacobs-art.html 

 

I'm thinking about changing from blogger to typepad.

Blogger is going to drive me to drink.

I'm having trouble downloading photos even though I'm paying for added storage space every month.

Too much sugar for a dime!

Pink Saturday

Snow and Snowmen

That's the theme.

Whose woods these are I think I know

His house is in the village though:

He will not see me stopping here

To watch his woods fill up with snow.

My little horse must think it queer

To stop without a farmhouse near

Between the woods and frozen lake

The darkest evening of the year.

He gives his harness bells a shake

To ask if there is some mistake.

The only other sound's the sweep

Of easy wind and downy flake.

The woods are lovely, dark and deep,

But I have promises to keep,

And miles to go before I sleep,

And miles to go before I sleep.

Happy Pink Saturday and a Happy New Year

to you.

Winter Reading By The Fire

Now is the time to curl up by a warm fire and read a good book.

Holiday's are winding down and the weather has turned colder, it's time to hibernate for awhile.

I downloaded these two on my Kindle and they were both good reads.

Gladys Mitchell's Mrs. Bradley British mysteries are always good.

These are a few of the books I'll be dreaming over this winter.

Soon it will be time for the new seed catalogs to arrive.

I hope everyone had a blessed Christmas during these hard times.

It was good to visit with my grown sons and make new memories.

Ms. Wilma was so bad over the holidays, Santa almost passed her by.

She wouldn't let poor Huey P. Long sleep with us, she tried to bite him!

Jealous hearted little thing.

Huey is such a good grand-dog.

Happy New Year,

Dorothy and Wilma

Wilma Picked Our Christmas Cards

I just had to show you the Christmas cards I'm sending out this year.

They came from www.cafepress.com and they have dozens of

Dachshund Cards to chose from!

This one was Wilma's personal favorite.

The weather is finally turning a little cooler here in the South.

It's beginning to feel a lot like Christmas.

Happy Holidays,

Dorothy and Ms.Wilma 



Farther Along

Farther along we'll know all about it

Farther along we'll understand why.

Cheer up my brother

Live in the sunshine.

We'll understand it,

All by and by.

Deck The Halls

Happy Pink Saturday

This weeks theme is Deck The Halls at Beverly's Pink Saturday.

My table is ready for the Christmas Dinner.

My old rocking chair is waiting for me to curl up by the fire with a good book.

We're putting up another book tree at the library.

And these are some of my eBay finds this last week.

If my grandmother Lynch was still living I would give this to her,

she loved violets so.

These were Royal Doulton, I hope to find more pieces of this pattern.

I couldn't resist this necklace with the weenie dog.

(Wilma said I just HAD to get it.

She wanted one for herself!)

Homer Laughlin sugar and creamer will go good with my mixed matched pink dishes.

I would love to get the Haviland, but it is way pricey!

I also found this pretty Christmas fabric online,

it will be great for crafting.

These picks are adorable.

Christmas die cuts from Germany are interesting.

I plan to go see the Hobbit this weekend, if I don't have to wait in line too awfully long.

I did all my gift shopping online, free delivery,so I'm finished with that.

Then I'm going to sit by the fire and dream of snow and Christmas pasts.

I wonder how in the world my grandmother stayed warm in this old log cabin of hers?

One day I'll tell you about my old great-great aunt Mandy.

We are very blessed to have a warm house to live in and all the many other blessings we have.

Wishing you a very Merry Christmas,

from Wilma and Dorothy
