Every Christmas Needs A Cow

Hi everyone!

Just popping in with a teeny weeny post to show you a very sweet little cow I happened upon not too long ago.  I am sorry for the pictures...a bit blurry, but time is short these days and this fella is just so darned cute that I thought I could get away without editing.  I promise he will appear in some "fancier" pics soon.

He is currently holding court on my kitchen peninsula.  He is an old Breyer cow. Actually, he is a bull, but somewhere along the line - in his life before me - his horns must have met a terrible fate, as they are both missing! 

 That should have been reason not to buy him, but he has such a sweetness about him.  I was willing to take a risk.

Thanks for stopping by and indulging my bovine love!

Christmas Comes to the Man Cave





Hi everyone!  Just checking in to show you some of the "man cave" décor this year.  We do a lot of entertaining this time of year, and the man cave is the main destination with it's three TV's, comfy furniture, and a bar that seats twelve or more!  (I keep telling ya folks - we are from Wisconsin!)

Anyway, I try to keep things somewhat rustic down there.  This year I picked up some wonderful vintage toys that I am using in my vignettes.  I added the awesome Tonka truck I won on EBay and the toy mailbox.  My dad was a mail carrier, so it is a sentimental piece for me.  (I have another vintage mailbox I used this Christmas you can see here.)

A closer shot of the truck.  I placed it on a tree round that my daughter received as a souvenir from a lumberjack show when she was little.  (in fact, one of the lumberjacks at the time was Sean Duffy, who appeared on one of the first seasons of the Real World and is now a WI State Senator).

 Hopefully I will have more of this room to show later!!!

Thanks for stopping by,
Jane
