~Trip to Northern California-Wisteria-Santa Cruz & Big Basin Redwoods State Park~

I wanted to share photos with you when we traveled up to 
Northern California.
We found a new store with everything we love.
~Antiques and Gardens~
Wisteria is in Soquel, California.
With brick paths guiding you throughout the property.
They have lots of wonderful vignettes
for outdoor and indoor displays.






I fell in love with this beautiful vignette!
There also was a house on the land that had rooms with 
 collections of many different things.




We will definitely go back!!
When we were up there we took a drive through 
Big Basin Redwoods State Park.
It had just rained and everywhere we looked 
was this beautiful moss.
The trees were spectacular!!






It was a wonderful way to end our trip up to 
Northern California.

~Merry Christmas and Simple & Sweet Fridays #147~


Our family and our sweet Lab, Maggie would love to wish everyone, 
"A Merry Christmas". 
It will be a very special Christmas with 
our kids home. 
We've been busy cooking lots of Christmas goodies.
Sugar cookies with
lots of sprinkles!!
My favorite cookies are thumbprints.
My mother would make them every year.
So now it's our tradition to make them too!
Carly and Katie made peppermint bark.

Wrapped up in clear bags with red skate ornaments make a delicious gift for friends and family.
I made Christmas tags. 
Love the Santa Claus stamp I found.
Our Christmas tree this year.
Red and White wrapping paper with garland 
added for a festive look!!
Red and White mushroom salt and pepper shakers.
Red and White mushroom measuring spoons.
I bought some chocolate cookie mushrooms from World Market. 
I added some red fondant on the mushroom caps.
 White sprinkles on top.
A perfect addition to a delicious star brownie.
Wishing you all a Merry Christmas!!
Enjoy this special holiday with your family and friends!!

Can't wait to see your holiday creativity!!
