Such a lovely memory too that you share that brought back many happy memories of my skating days ( I was more a speed skater than a figure skater -ya know me, I don't do ladylike lol ) Love the crackle you have given the skates . It makes me think of the delicate cracks you'd see in the ice as you skate. The christmas foliage is glorious and those red laces - yes everyone had to have fancy or bright coloured laces - seal the deal . Congratulations on your worthy win at Frilly and Funkie . <br />hugs xA Pinkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04380869190533330025noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2495705429220655535.post-53763538116972126942017-12-29T23:30:18.094+00:002017-12-29T23:30:18.094+00:00Beautiful Anne.

Your Christmasy floral spray is gorgeous. Your memory is similar to mine but I had to borrow skates and we didn't have a pond but a skating rink that someone made in the yard at the local elementary school. I was terrible at it and could not wait to go home and have hot chocolate - that was the best part.

This is made even more special when you know the story of your first pair of skates, what a lovely image to go with a stunning creation!<br /><br />Well the family arrived on the weekend and the Christmas festivities have begun. Between the holiday madness and taking care of two sick baby squirrels, I will barely have a moment to spare until after New Years. I love the holidays but oh boy, things can pile up and it can be exhausting. Wouldn't trade it for anything though. lol.
