Christmas, Snow Pictures And Some Finds

It's hard to believe that tomorrow night is Christmas Eve.  My family has its Christmas gathering on Christmas Eve and this year my cousin and his fiancé are hosting the dinner. This past Friday we had snow falling, giving us more of a Christmas feel.

We went for a drive on Friday and I got these snow pictures down the road from our place.

This is an old schoolhouse down the road from our place which is a heritage building which we've booked for our wedding and reception.

This one Pyrex bowl is my only Christmas pattern piece in my collection.  We don't find many Christmas pattern pieces in our travels. This is called the Golden Leaf pattern.

This shelf in my Hoosier has some vintage family ornaments and some Coca - Cola ornaments from my dads collection.

I had to take one shelf of paperweights out of my cabinet.  This is a small group of them.

The fiancé likes to fish so when I saw these fish napkins I brought them home washed and ironed them and wrapped two of his gifts in them.

This picture of my mother would have been taken in the early 1950's.

I hope you and your family have a wonderful Christmas and the happiest New Year.

Thanks for visiting.

Denise

Road Trip And Local Finds

A week ago Friday we were in Kamloops, British Columbia and had time to stop by some of the secondhand stores.  Some of the finds in this post are from that trip.

The three yellow  Pyrex bowl set is the Butterfly Gold 2 pattern and the white and aqua set is the Butterprint pattern.  The casserole dish is the Town And Country pattern and found at another store.

This single bright cheery green mug caught my eye, it was made in England.

I'm not sure but I'm guessing this may be a cookie jar.  It's marked either 620 copyright U.S.A. or 626 copyright U.S.A. I'm not sure if it's a zero or six.

I'm not sure what purpose this dish serves it may just be a decorative piece on the back it's signed C.A.

Back to my local secondhand stores I found this teapot and mug.

This bag is so me it just said buy me buy me so I did.

The warm sunny weather we've been having this month made me think of this picture.  I can see my grandmother in it, who everyone else is and how she knew them I have no clue.
