Christmas Haul

JCW gave me a new camera in November and the excitement still hadn't worn off. I felt like I had already had a wonderful Christmas and it got even better when BLS gave me a new Hermes bangle.

Last year I bought JCW a quilted coat and he claimed he was between sizes but this year I took him to the store so there wouldn't be any discrepancies. I ended up getting a little treat myself...it was a Yoicks Christmas!

BLS surprised JCW by having his business school diploma framed and I found a print of the USS Constellation that I thought was just his style.

Our stockings were filled with favorites...one in particular was Rocking Chair Mix that we completely devoured.

Was Santa good to you?

    That bangle is gorgeous! Question- what is rocking chair mix? I've never heard of it before.

    Great pillow. You never cease to amaze me with the amount of class and style you bring to everything.

    Nothing like a Yoicks Christmas!! My favorite kind. Heading over there later today myself to exchange the Barbour JMOC got me for Christmas. Thought I'd like the Bedale but since I don't ride I don't need something so short. Think I'll get the Beaufort instead. That print of the Constellation is beautiful.

    Love the bangle and those stocking stuffers!! My favorite presents were my Moon and Lola monogrammed necklace, a Michael Kors tortoise bangle, and a faux fur vest--perhaps I need to do a post, hehe!

    Love the Hermes bangle, Barbour and the needlepoint pillow. Looks like Santa was great to both of you! I got a Concord watch, Gucci wallet to match the Vintage Web hobo which I posted on my blog. Never heard of Rocking Chair Mix?
