PEACE .... my wish for everyone this Christmas ....

YAY ... YAY ... and one more time YAY !!!  { jumping around doing the happy dance } ..... finally handed in my first essay for Uni.  That certainly has made my day.  Everything seemed to be on hold while I got that done.  No one at home could talk to me .... I was off in another world.  Well at least I had my nose buried in books.  Oh well, now that's over I can breath a big sigh of relief { Phew } and take a breather before the next assignment, which isn't far away.  Don't know how I'll go, but Que Sera Sera.  It's all a learning curve.  It can only go onward and upward from here.

Dark mulling clouds .... 
Friday Evening ......
Continuing all over the weekend ...
Right about now I thought I might need to get the ARK out the front of the house ...
well just in case ....


Didn't see Noah anywhere about .... but I do have 2 cats ....
It came pelting down .....





Then all was quite on the Western Front and I put the ARK back in the garage.




I still didn't like the look of the clouds











Then today out came this beautiful Rainbow










Perfect after all that rain









Just to add to the festive cheer and keep in the spirit of Christmas we've added these additions to our decoration tally




This little duck is so cute.  Miss 20 purchased this as a gift for my niece and nephew.  When you put it in the water it has a sensor on the bottom and flashes, various different colours. 










Very cute.



Then we bought this guy.
Now I'm positive the department manager saw us coming
and we had signs on our heads reading 
"SUCKERS"
yeah well that was us.
Miss 20 saw him sitting in the supermarket on the shelf near the main counter and fell in love with him .... but then she falls in love with anything cute and fury.

Well even I thought he was cute when we noticed that on his foot it said
PRESS HERE 
and when we pressed his foot 
he started singing.
Yep, he found a place in our house.
But this is my favourite Christmas purchase this year
I just love it.
I have wanted a nice nativity for a long time.  I look each year, but never seem to have the money when Christmas comes around.
But then I found this
with the word
PEACE
written on it 
and I just love it.


... and it even lights up ...
And that's my wish for Christmas for everyone 
PEACE
