Red And White Part Two

Let it Snow
Let It Snow
Let it Snow.
And snow it did.
Six inches of the white stuff fell.
The river was foggy and the freighters were
blowing their horns.

Unfortunately I did not enjoy it,
as yesterday I had to drive my mom 
to my great aunts funeral.
My gramma B's last sibling passed away.
Auntie Clara as we called her was 101 years old.
She was the last of her generation.
My mom is now the oldest of the next generation.
She is 83.

Auntie Clara was a fun full of life person.
She lived through many many firsts.
From horse drawn carriages to cars.
Seeing a man land on the moon.
Computers, cell phones and even television.
Fast food restaurants, freeways and airplanes.
So many things were invented during her life.
We will miss your smile Auntie Clara.
Until we meet again.

Back to my red and white themed room.
Part Two
{the decor}

Quilts.

Stacked in our pumpkin pine cupboard.

I love rescuing quilts.

If they are either red/ white

or blue

They usually come home with me.

Next is my lil' vignette.

{not sure where that purple line came from}

A candy cane candle in front of a
White Christmas song sheet.

Vintage enamel gasoline numbers.
These were the numbers used for gasoline prices;
before the digital signs came into being.

Taking center stage with a tiny mini white lighted tree,

and Santa pillow.

Here's hoping Santa does stop here
on the 25th.

Post Snowy Blessings To All!
