A CAMP RUNAMUCK CHRISTMAS

Christmas is two days away!   It's coming so fast this year.  Hunter is ready!  Sitting on the table instead of the couch.  

The house is decorated.  

A miracle already happened-- Hunter and Cinnamon were in the same bed!

Hunter also explored decorations he could get to. Who is that Santa.  

I listened to YouTube videos like "Christmas in Oxford" and it's so relaxing.  Callie wanted to be in the picture. 

The Christmas Star was the first thing I put up.  It's 60 years old.  

So many memories come with Christmas.  This tree skirt was made by my sister years ago.   It's a sweet memory of her.  

Sometimes, I just put on the gas logs and sit a minute-- that's all, since I'm joined by multiple dogs on the couch.  Hunter thinks I'm there just to play.   So much for relaxing.  

Lady Jicky has sent me things from Australia, so I have a kangaroo section.  Koalas, too. 

She sent this big koala that has a prominent place.  I love it because it reminds me of Melinda and our sweet friendship for a very long time.

Hunter and Cinnamon again-- he loves her.  He wants to play with her.  She does NOT feel the same way.  He's the pesky puppy.

I have wreaths all over.  I put decorative scarves or table runners behind them.  

This one is made with the bottoms of very large pinecones from very long ago.  It's a favorite.  

This picture reminds me of Starlight.  

Look closely-- this is my first Peke as an adult-- it's Kubla Khan of Monterey Bay-- Kubie.  

Starlight of course, holds a main position.  

Poinsettias and wreaths and ornaments are all over.  

The red hanging ornaments were my mom's-- 💕

The china hutch was my grandmother's.  

  Must Love Pekes: MAKING CHRISTMAS TREE SNOW

I put homemade snow on the tree each year-- my grandmother's recipe.  She died before I was born, so it's even extra special.  I remember stories of her every Christmas.  And look closely, the Pekes are pulling the sleigh in the window. 

Paddington and Piper helped me supervise.  They were so good. 

By the end, Hunter had used the office couch...

And then Callie took over.  They are resting up for a nice winter's nap.   Share pictures of your home at Christmas.  🎄🎄  MERRY CHRISTMAS!
