Signs of the Season ~

Photos from out and about town this afternoon.

"Christmas waves a magic wand over this world, and behold, everything is softer and more beautiful." ~ Norman Vincent Peale




"Our hearts grow tender with childhood memories and love of kindred, and we are better throughout the year for having, in spirit, become a child again at Christmas-time." ~ Laura Ingalls Wilder






"Christmas is not a time or a season but a state of mind." Calvin Coolidge, 1927




Until next time,
Cindy

    Yes, it's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!! NOt at my house, though. I still haven't decorated. And I still haven't decided if I am going to put up my big tree, which will undoubtedly freak out my little beagle, or if I should just use a small table-top tree. Better decide soon, huh?

    Have a wonderful week.

    Love,
    Patti

    I saw that quote by Norman Vincent Peal on another blog recently, and I liked it so much that I wrote it down. LOVE THE SANTA!

    Seeing all of the evergreen clippings makes me want to put up the Christmas tree around here. I can almost smell it! The wreaths are beautiful. Thanks for sharing, and if you have time to stop by my site I would love it
