Ray bought me a digital camera for Christmas - a Canon Powershot - and it's RED! Here are some pics from Amazon - isn't it pretty? ;-) I had to order a Brown Microfiber Vera Bradley "Tech Case" to put it in - sure hope it fits. If not, guess I'll just have to use it for something else. :-)
OH, and he also bought me jewelry - RUBIES, my favorite! Very pretty set with ring, earrings & pendant. He bought it in Nov. (we were in Myrtle Beach) but I didn't get to wear it until Christmas Eve. It's so pretty!! See.....
(sterling silver & lab created stones, but that's perfect for me, I don't spend big $$ on jewelry!)
I have been stitching on a UFO/WIP, Lizzie Kate's ABC Lessons while listening to Diana Gabaldon's "Voyager". I finished part 1 last night & am very anxious to get back to it tonight. I have the first four books on audio... each is over 30 hours - that's A LOT of stitching time! ;-) On the stitching subject, I usually start some "big - new" project in Jan. I THINK this year I'm going to concentrate on finishing up some of my wonderful UFO's. I really do like them, just kept finding other things to stitch on. Hopefully I can finish one or two by the end of January. WISH ME LUCK!
OH, I took down my Christmas tree/decorations this afternoon & (gasp) vacuumed the living room, kitchen & everything else with ceramic tile, and our bedroom. For those that don't remember, I fell in Sept. while vacuuming and hurt my knee REALLY badly. It's still sore if I kneel on it, and I promise you today while I was vacuuming, it started to hurt. I know, it's probably all in my mind, but it really did hurt! LOL And speaking of why I'm telling you I took down my tree - I counted the stitched ornaments. I only had 119 or 120. I got mixed up & not sure if I counted one of them or not. SO..... think that's enough or should I keep at it? ;-)
Thanks for stopping by & Happy Stitching!!!

ONLY 119 or 120?? Wow! I have 6!! I wish I had so many, because I won't deviate from my purple themed tree until I can fill it with stitched ornaments! A ways to go! I have given away most of my ornaments to my children as they flew the coop!
Have a very Happy New Year!
Hugs,

You should be good and tired if you took down your trees today!!! I believe you when you say 120 ornaments!! Beautiful ones at that!!! It must have been an electronic Christmas..you got the nice camera, Nicole got the cool notebook and I (and DH) got a new big screen for the den! Hope your knee gets better!!! Hey to hubbie for me!

Love the jewellery. It's gorgeous.
120 ornaments? Wow! That's insane (in an impressive sort of way~)
119 or 120....well gee, hmmm...

I love your power shot, Katie has one and she loves hers!
And your ruby set is gorgeous...did you know that July birthdays are rubies. Hmmm know anyone with a July birthday?
:)
Lucky girl with the gifts :o)
120 ornaments - amazing! Did you stitch them all yourself?
120 stitched ornaments? Wow! I think you should keep on stitching and/or collecting them! You can always add another tree - LOL!
I got a Canon Powershot for Christmas too! I got me a cheapie case from Wal-mart today- let me know if your Vera case works and maybe I'll upgrade. Mine is similar to yours but dh got boring silver..(LOL) and it's a A1100 IS.
Your jewelry is gorgeous!! Lucky girl!
I love your Christmas presents! Ray did a very good job! :) I can't wait to take my tree down. I think I'm going to do it tomorrow. I'm ready!!!
A red camera and rubies - both are gorgeous!
Please can you send me the link to the 2010 Pals retreat - I had trouble opening the one on your blog.
I think you should keep stitching the ornies - a second tree is always an option ;-)
Happy New Year Amy!
only 120???????????? LOL...I'm JEALOUS!!! :-) AND YEP, I'd def keep at it. you can always put up more than 1 tree when this one is so full it's about to fall under it's weight, LOL!!!
Hope the knee is better; been there done that with mine in Oct and it still hurts too.
