Having Withdrawal Symptoms...

I know it's been a while since I updated my blog, but I really have a good reason this time. My dad had a big nasty tumor removed from his brain the day after I got back from Canton and blogging just didn't make the schedule. Everything went well and he went home with 62 titanium staples in his head. He made me count them and take pictures -- which I won't post -- but if he had his surgery before Halloween, he would have won the prize for scariest costume! He tried to get the neurosurgeon to let him take the tumor home in a jar, but they said no. It was about the size of a small tangerine! All is going fine and he's just as ornery as ever!

So, let me try to remember Canton....... It was busy!! Everything was decorated for Christmas. We had lots of trees and tons and tons of vintage ornaments! I haven't had time to do much with the pictures, but here are a few shots from The Veranda.........































SEE YOU SOON!

Those family matters are way more important than blogging! Hope your dad recovers soon!

Glad to hear your Dad is okay. Your photos are beautiful and I'm in love with that love seat or maybe it's a couch... I want it - It would be perfect for my small front room!
