Joyce and her lovely daughter, Annie, invited friends and bloggers to a Breakfast Christmas cookie exchange on Saturday morning. Here is "our" Joyce and Sue...she has on the apron you made her.
Here are some of the girls and Annie is in the middle with the black turtleneck
Annie and Joyce had some wonderful breakfast eats, coffee and a cocoa bar set up. They were wonderful hostesses and they gave each of us gals scarves which was really awesome. Who doesn't love a scarf.
I don't have a picture of all the yummy cookies but they were placed all around the kitchen and we went around putting one package of each one in our container and then went around again and kept doing that until all the cookies were gone. It is pretty nice not to have to make several different kinds of cookies, but there are some (at least in my family) that seem to be favorites that are a must.
That is Kelly (Sandie's daughter), me, Joyce and Sandie. Kelly,me and Sandie have on the scarves that we were given. Joyce was busy as our server...should we have tipped her????
Lovely Tree and Nutcrackers on the built ins on either side of the fireplace.
They even have "The Elf on the Shelf" book, wish that was around when our girls were small. That Elf would have come in handy.
I took this picture to show the cabinets and the lovely blue color they were painted. Personally I like them. Personally I am in awe how brave Annie was to paint them a color and not stay neutral...like the person who is blogging right now. I have thought of it but that is as far as the process has gone. Believe it or not I had thought about a barn red and antique them but now I am thinking a pale gray and they are white at my house which in all honesty is probably what they will remain. I just keep thinking about the humongous task it would be...and my brain goes into a contorted state...I have heart palpitations and sweats, so until I can get my body under control...the cabinets will remain white.
Jay took me and when he came back to pick me up and I was putting our goodies in the car...this is what I saw
I asked him what these were for and he said to read the cards...
Clever man.
PS- I have another post coming this afternoon so please come back.

Hey it looks like you went to the same cookie exchange I talked about on my post today! And who is that gorgeous woman in aqua - teehee.
We had a lot of fun didn't we? It was so good to see you.
And those flowers - you are a blessed woman! That was a gift.

Wow! Your husband is so romantic. You are a cute couple! Thanks for attending the cookie swap. It was so nice to see you. Thanks for the flower pin and spreader. Both of which have been used already.
