Christmas Home Tours and More

Beloved, Will you be Home for the Christmas Holiday? Merry Christmas! Look what a ribbon bow on a wreath can do for an old chair.

Every year I look forward to Christmas Open Houses in the area and this year was no exception. My husband and I went to see four houses, and a Historic Millinery Shop in Alma, Kansas.

Out of respect for the owners' privacy I didn't photograph the interiors of the houses. Sally who was manning the Millinery Shop preserved by the Alma Area Foundation was asked if I could take pictures of what the Millinery Shop was displaying for the 2009 Christmas Home Tours.

She didn't mind. Very gracious. Smile, Sally, Smile. Remember the Hallmark Movie 'Sarah, Plain and Tall'? Sally's quilt was used in the movie. Now that's cozy.

Please join me inside this quaint building.

After we finished our tour we headed over to The American Legion Building for an evening meal of Chilli with Dessert and Drink. It was very good. Visited good 'ole Santa. Took a drive to see the night lights then went back by the Millinery Shop to see it in the dark. Found Alma to be very charming.

Thanks for joining me today and I hope that you have a blessed day,
