It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas

This week in Denver we have been having winter weather.  Beginning Monday night it started snowing and yesterday we had a record low.  Today it is a balmy 3 degrees with more snow.  So when I look out the window of the shop I can't help but think of Christmas.  I am sitting at my desk right now looking at the Sam's Club gift catalog and wish that somehow I could have the sleigh and nutcracker they have.  The only problem is how I could sneak them past my husband.  They are both pretty big.  I think that he would notice them and realize they are new.  Yes sometimes I have to sneak things into the house without him knowing and if he says something I always say I have had that for years.

So here is what I wish for this Christmas.  The sleigh measures a whopping 46.5" X 24" X 23.25".



Now for the nutcracker.  I would like to have two of these.  He is only 6 feet tall.


I just don't think I could get these past him.  He always says that I have too much stuff.  I don't agree with him.  I always say there is room for more.

  1. Ha! My hubby is usually pretty good but just so I don't stress him out, I OFTEN say "I've had that for years"! You are right though, you might have a problem sneaking something that big into the house but they are magnificent and I'm sure you NEED them!

    1. Most of the time he doesn't care but he might with not like me getting them since they are so big.
      But I would sure love to have them.

    1. My husband never goes in my craft room that is in the basement. That is where I hide things for awhile before I will put them out.

  4. I think you and I would get into a lot of trouble together if we lived close to each other! I can see why you would want two of them..of course you'd need two. I'd don't think I'd be able to slip this by my husband though. My friend refers to me as " Little Miss Holiday" he says I have too much crap! That's why we are just friends..ha ha

    1. I agree with you that we would get into trouble together. Sometimes you just can't help yourself. Everything is so pretty in the stores that you just want to take it all home. Right now I have tons of bags hidden behind the bed in the basement since I am doing a new scheme for my main tree and that nutcracker would fit right in.
