Loved your post!
The snowman cupcake is darling. Would like to make some of these.
May you have a terrific new year!
God bless you and may the new year be pleasant,

Enjoyed seeing your lovely Christmas decorations. I know I must pack mine away, but I hate to. I will miss the coziness they provide during Michigan's wintry days. Enjoy Florida's warm sunshine, and best wishes for a Happy 2013!

Never easy to take down, but I was glad to have things back in order - a bit sparse but when the creativity strikes me I shall finish that very fun 7th layer of design!
I absolutely adore your Goodnight, John Boy" truck your friend made you - how thoughtful, what fun things all around it, love that black Bible.
So cute.
Enjoy The Sunshine State.
Happy New Year!!
The house looked beautiful and classic. Love seeing all of your old things.
I just loved seeing your Christmas decorations. Thanks for sharing.
Its always sad in a way to pack up all the Christmas decorations. Loved seeing all your lovely decorations. We are leaving for northern Florida tomorrow for a few months, hoping for lots of sunshine and warm weather! Happy New Year!

Fun looking at all your beautiful Christmas decorations. Sitting Santa is a jolly old soul.
Green with envy! - the Walton truck is perfection, and wonderfully constructed by a very talented lady.
Your exquisite clock and painting make a most compatible pairing.
Tick-tock-'Goodnight, Dame Ruthie.' :)
Lovely photos, and I am absolutely in love with those stockings! (Ideas for next Christmas!)
Hi Ruthie,
Thank you for visiting my blog.
Yes I had visited your blog before but did not leave message. You three girls look very young, do not look like you are at 65.
I love your Christmas decoration especially the homemade stockings.
Keep the tea party alive!

P.S. I am from Hong Kong (China)
Lovely blog. Raising my Devonshire Lace teacup to you and yours for many happy teatimes ahead...Cheers
Love the tree, stockings, santas and of course, the Walton truck. It's always a little sad to put away the treasures of Christmas. But they'll be back for another year and will be just as lovely again. Thanks for sharing.
It's all great! Can't pick what I love the most.
Thanks for sharing.
Linda
