Christmas is creeping closer. Bytes put the lights on the back fence, we have a new super tall skinny tree in the living room, ingredients for candy making in the kitchen. AND now it is snowing!! Usually we have had at least one big snow by now — this may be “it” arriving late. We are battening down the hatches and putting the snow scoop by the door. Thanks for stopping by to share your great posts, wonderful ideas and smart projects.

Thank you for hosting this fun party! I’ve shared 66, 67, and 68. Off now to see what others have shared and leave some comment love. “Battening down the hatches” at Christmastime is one of my favorite things to do, too. It sounds like you’re ready. 🙂 Enjoy!
