Everyone and their dawg is posting tree photos these days. I think everybody put up and decorated their tree yesterday. That's what we were up to.
All the lights and ornaments, oh my goodness. Just what I need now that there is nothing colorful in the garden to photograph. I'll try to keep the tree photos to a minimum over the next month but here is my favorite find from today's downloads.
Other FIMBY finds from this past week:
Mama Speak: A reflection in my Season's Mirror. My very own mother's contribution to Sharing the Season. It's a pleasure to read my mom's blog and see her through a different lens as a writer, life traveler, blogger, friend and not just "my mom".
Homeschool: Ever find yourself wondering "should I homeschool?"</i> I like how Lori at Camp Creek Blog answers that question. And no, it's not a finger shaking "yes you should" but a thoughtful answer to a question many families ask.
Urban Homestead: Book Review: The Green Beauty Guide by Julie Gabriel I hadn't heard of this book before. Based on this review it looks like a good read. I make all my beauty care products (except the Burt's Bees make up I rarely use) but I'm having problems finding/making a good conditioner for the girl's hair. I hope this book can help me.
Neighborhood: I'm stuck on this one this week. Our own family has been very community minded of late and I'm excited to share our Advent Conspiracy contribution on a future blog.
Gallery: I loved these light painting Christmas tree photos and tips from Laura at Dolce Pics. I tried it this weekend. Let's just say I need more practice.
Love pretty crystals! We are getting our tree on Sat.
thank you!! i hope it wasn't finger-shaking at all. ;^)
My wife loved the Green Beauty Guide, and even wrote the review for it on my site. If you don't have a copy, she highly recommends it to anyone concerned about that stuff. As for me, well, no beauty guide will help! ;-)
