everyone dancing merrily, in the new old fashioned way.

christmas is here in belgium, has been for about three weeks... we're playing bing crosby, celine, and manhiem, using this holiday budget, getting a creative with our juletide decor, and hunting down the perfect gifts at every flea market stop. less than 7 weeks left folks! 

i am loving festive plaid. makes me wanna go thrift old christmas pajamas and sew something.


all pictures taken at sissy-boy. our favorite dutch store. beware if you click on the link-good tunes will play.

our christmas giving goal:

"We all enjoy giving and receiving presents. But there is a difference between presents and gifts. The true gifts may be part of ourselves--giving of the riches of the heart and mind--and therefore more enduring and of far greater worth than presents bought at the store."
