Header Competition # 11

The header theme this week by Tom from England is "Christmas". Mac, Tom, Darla and I have a little contest to show a new theme header each week. Go to the other sites to see their interpretation of this weeks theme.

Here is our family room Christmas display.

The tree is a more traditional tree.

Here is our living room tree. It has been flocked to give it a snowed on look.

What I decided to use for my header is Soccer Boy and his concert choir shirt, "Dear Santa, I was framed". I really think that it speaks of Christmas in a young ones heart.



I changed my mind and decided on the Carolina Wren photo. I got the ornament in an exchange and thought I would spice up my feeder. These are the best Carolina Wren photos I have ever gotten and was done today. I only had a few single bird photos before this.

    I loved the header photo of the ornament for the birds. How wild and crazy you are Tom. And your Christmas trees are so beautiful. Is that a homemade quilt under the one tree? You have a blessed Christmas celebration with your family. Joann

    How fun to see all the header possibilities. One of these days, perhaps I'll change mine but as I recall it took me a while to get them formatted to the right size.
    Hugs and blessings,
