What is it that they say about having to kiss many frogs before finding your prince? I always thought I was lucky not to have to do that. You know, find someone to share my life with by the process of elimination. But then I remembered that's sort of how Guy found me (he was a loooooong-time bachelor before I came along) and I decided I should probably shut up. And also? Count my lucky stars.

This little guy came via an ornament exchange. Love those!

Starfish Santa. Purchased in Monterey, CA during our fabulous California vacation this past summer. I love Santa. And Monterey.

I will leave you with this one word meme that I'm borrowing from Jerri Ann. You should head on over to her million and one blogs for a BIG CHRISTMAS GIVE-AWAY EXTRAVANGAZA. Seriously, she's giving away a bunch of good stuff or so I've heard. Go check it out.
