 |  We were visiting our good friends Mike and Carol Tinney in Georgetown, TX.  The lights in the downtown area were lovely.

                          |  There is a constant stream of deer that roam their (Bill Jr. & Lexa) property.
 |  So fun to see them when they have their young ones with them.

                          |  A little Christmas fun using what you have to decorate for Christmas.  I keep a supply of little trees and use them in different fun ways.
 |  This is the tiny little truck on the cake stand in the photo on the left.  The little vehicles were a great estate sale find.

                          |  Fun way to use collections.  This Santa is one of many I have in my collection of Santa's.
 Over the years I have accumulated a very large collection of Santa's.

                          |  Our "sweet, sweet Melissa" making a fashion statement.   Note the gold bow on her ankle as well as the pink antlers.  Pink is definitely her color of choice.

                          | March 2017 An adorable  "Fairy House" arrived via US Postal Service.  Beverly Lynton, my dearest friend assembled it.  She reduced a photo of Melissa and tucked it into the branches.  The small branches,  leaves and twigs,  crayons,  colored pencils form the structure of the house.  On the other side there is a a tiny picture of a speckled  hen I painted long ago glued to a dried leaf. There is a tea bag  with the string and label intertwined in the twigs.  Two tiny poster beds complete with a tea bag mattress and pillows came with the house.  What an imagination.  Love it! She has a note written on the bottom.  It told Lissa to sprinkle cookie crumbs. Fairies would come and move in.  Fairy dust (tiny glitter) is sprinkled all over the  little structure. |  |

                          | News Flash.... We have a new member in the Della and Company Family... Maxi.  Mom said I could tell you about her.  She belongs to Melinda and we have only seen photos of her.  I think she is beautiful.  So glad she is.  A handsome guy always likes a good looking friend.  Beau |
