Some last minute roses

I have finished work for the year and are looking forward to spending some time with the family and pottering around the house. I cut back my roses recently but they are still producing some beautiful blooms which I had to display here for Christmas. I have done the last minute shopping and even caught up with a special friend for coffee. I love the build up to Christmas, everyone is excited and we are looking forward to santa's visit later this afternoon. He arrives in the local fire truck, lollies for the kids and a chance for the neighbours to get together. Hope the rain holds off.
Some how I think I will be posting over Christmas just can't help myself and always have something to share with you all.


 





A gorgeous venetian mirror star that was given to me last Christmas from Melinda from http://www.melsroseplace.blogspot.com/

Sandy, the mirror star is beautiful, as are your roses. They're perfectly set off by the shabby stool and the mirror.
Hope you have lovely weather over the next few days, and enjoy the time with your family.
