Holiday Traditions
One of my fondest memories was tracking up into the mountains to cut down a Christmas tree with my husband on our first Christmas together. We carved our initials in a nearby tree. For a close up view click here.

Thank you Bonny and Jules for your well wishes. I am so glad to feel like I am back in the land of the living again. Still tired but returning to my normal self little by little.

that is a wonderful memory and illustration!
This is really cute! How did you do the plaid pants, and hat, and scarf, though? This would make a great Christmas card for next year, too!
This is very cute maggie. I, too, love the tartan. The colours he is wearing are very similar to the formal dress of the staff that work at Edinburgh castle in Scotland - purplish hues with the green. In fact your illustration reminded me of when I lived in Scotland, before I moved to the USA. I like your story as well. So romantic. Enjoy your new years and thanks for stoppping by my blog.
What a great memory - and nice illustration. Happy new year!
