Deffinately no snow.<br />The wreath reminds me of gathering pine boughs with my father for the wreath. The best I do now is for familar sents is to cook with lots of cinnamon.<br />Enjoy the month.Terryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05451605281445624471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3188526489767830724.post-61301580283775089382011-11-29T12:19:40.420+02:002011-11-29T12:19:40.420+02:00Wir kennen hier keine Umzüge/Paraden für Weihnacht...Wir kennen hier keine Umzüge/Paraden für Weihnachten. Dafür sind jetzt die Weihnachtsmärkte (meistens in kleinen geschmückten Holzhäuschen) aktuell. Es ist immer sehr interessant zu lesen, wie in anderen Ländern Adventsbräuche gehandhabt werden. Dein Türkranz ist sehr, sehr schön! Wir haben dieses Jahr Misteln an der Tür hängen, als kleiner Willkommensgruss (aber nicht alle werden darunter geküsst ;-) !).<br />Herzliche Adventsgrüsse<br />BarbaraBarbarahttp://bitzlis.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3188526489767830724.post-8404830148506182302011-11-29T02:06:27.778+02:002011-11-29T02:06:27.778+02:00What a lovely parade, Ulla!

We have a similar parade that takes place after dark - lots of dogs, but no pigs ;>) I like that yours is in the daylight - much warmer than when it is below 20F at night! I noticed you had no snow yet this fall - I'm thinking both you and Mr. K are okay with that! Lovely wreath! I would love to know how to make them myself!<br />Cheers!Candacehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15520872958009985226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3188526489767830724.post-86471564433022420212011-11-28T14:33:20.579+02:002011-11-28T14:33:20.579+02:00I guess it's quite unusual for you not to have...I guess it's quite unusual for you not to have snow by now. Parades are a great way to start the holiday season. Those Irish Wolfhounds (I think that's what those big dogs are) could pull Santa's sleigh! Your wreath is lovely and I'll bet is smells of Christmas.Abby and Stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12082914470199247665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3188526489767830724.post-15275397758472207572011-11-28T00:45:18.929+02:002011-11-28T00:45:18.929+02:00Our Santa Claus parade was last weekend and my you...Our Santa Claus parade was last weekend and my youngest son went with his girlfriend who is from a small town. It was a mild day and great for the little ones. I haven't seen the parade in person for years but yours looks lovely. The door wreath is quite striking against the dark door. <br />I really have to get a move on to get a couple of stockings done - one for little Luc.Doloreshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00013261733996949731noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3188526489767830724.post-37481075357891536442011-11-27T21:30:20.927+02:002011-11-27T21:30:20.927+02:00Oh Ulla, thank you so much for your post.

I have been so disgusted with Christmas for so long because some people have expressed a dislike for their gifts... there is so much pressure to please, and I've been wiped out. (Halloween is my delight. Everybody is so happy with their "gift" and actually pleased with all my work to please them, that I really have just given up on Christmas, until your blog.) Your sweet hometown parade, the pig and dogs and the traditional blanket... I might have to start liking Christmas again. Focus on the fun doings and not so much on pleasing others. Thank you so much!<br />Hugs!Terrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08927552672720816359noreply@blogger.com
