"Soon it will be Christmas Day!"..... 

Its been a long month of sickness and health frustrations. Although these problems are still not over, this Christmas season is distracting me. Christmas time is my favorite time of year. Even more special this year because I have a house to decorate. No more apartment for me. My husband helped haul out all the Christmas decorations...bless his heart! There is nothing like decorating the Christmas Tree as a family. Peppermint Hot Cocoa, Christmas music, peanut butter m&ms and memories: What could be better?

Even our 3 birds joined in on the fun.

I even had a chance to get my husband to photograph one of my favorite Cabled Scarfs, I made at the beginning of the year. The pattern is called an Irish Hiking Scarf. You can find the pattern on Ravelry. The pattern was actually very easy to understand and make, but looks like it was complicated. Definitely an impresser of a scarf. I ended up making it a short scarf to keep it from being bulky in my jacket, kind of like a scarflet. I even found this great scarf pin by Brittany Needles. There's nothing like wearing something you have made.
