Finding joy and vintage ornaments

Well, here we are only 8 days away from Christmas.  The girls are counting down and we are getting ready to celebrate.  In this busy season, I am trying to find a little bit of joy in each day.  It might be daily Mass or just a cup of tea before the the girls get home from school.  Whatever it is I am trying hard to find joy in the ordinary and be grateful for each day. Earlier this week I found "a lot" of joy when I pulled out my vintage ornaments and my bokeh board and spent some time taking  a few shots.  Okay, a lot of shots...

We are looking forward to TJ coming home this weekend and having a few weeks of down time.  We of course are looking forward to Christmas and New Years, as well as time with family.  Since we are a family of  Hawkeyes, we are also looking forward to the Rose Bowl.  Last time Iowa was in the Rose Bowl I was in college, how time flies.

Wishing all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
