It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!

Got our Christmas shopping done at Eureka Bayshore Mall.

First stop, The Toy-Box; it's a cute child's store, I love it.
All kinds of goodies for the kiddies.
We got knights on horseback for our gallant grandsons,
and a tiny animal stamp set for a special boy.
I found 3 origami paper packs for VBS (July 2008).

The displays at the Mall are beautiful; one has white lights dangling from a sky-lite, at night it looks like icicles.

Visited my favorite shop, Baa Baa Sheepskins, it has a wonderful assortment of folksy, seasonal items and the scent of cinnamon and cranberries is awesome. Picked up small stocking-stuffers, those are always an added surprise.
Mervyns store is great for inexpensive, 50% off home-deco gifts. Hope Becky likes her stylish surprise. Also found some promised softies for her to mellow out in. Last stop, Dollar Store, bargains galore. Got Andy a slim candy mug with red cardinal motif. Muchas tonterias-lots of stuff for last minute treats.

All in all, a pleasant day-trip, the weather clear and cool, thank you God.
Lord willing, we'll go again after the holidays.


Best wishes & Enjoy the dishes.

Remember: Christmas comes but once a year, yet let us always keep Christ near.
