Peacocks for the new year!

Well, I will be taking Pammie into the new year. She will be absolutely fabulous in 2009! She received some new friends in December, some of which need to be named still. The ones that were named were wonderful and inspiring!
I received many Peacock things for Christmas. My favorite peacock item so far is my peacock notepaper. It's so pretty! I love writing little notes, so the pretty paper makes it always fun!

I just want to wish everyone a happy start to the new year. For me, 2008 was a year of realization on many levels. There were great times and not so great times, as every year brings that. No matter what, we should all remember that things get bad sometimes, but they always get better. I will spend this final night of 2008 remembering the bad and the good, but will be leaving the bad in the past. That's what we have to do sometimes to prepare ourselves for the really good that is about to come. Again, we just have to be patient for those really good things!

My hopes for 2009 is a year of good beginnings. I wish the best to my peeps!
Peeps remember: Peacocks rock the flock!

Pammie at Christmas!

Pammie has inspired my Christmas decor!

I am decorating my mantle in black feathers with peacock feather accents.

I purchased peacock ornaments from World Market and my Grandmother gave me one. :) Peacock feathers will adorn the big green tree too.

I made a bouquet of brown and blue peacock feathers for my dining room table. I have very tall ceilings, so the bouquet is very tall! I stuck some white branches in the bouquet too.

Tommy said the decor isn't very "Christmasy", but I said "Red and green are just the media's traditional colors they came up with to represent Christmas.....I am not traditional, therefore I do not believe Christmas has to be just red and green." :)

There are trees all over the house. I feel Christmas is going to be good this year.

I've got to run....more decor to put up! :)
