Welcome to December & Small Business Saturday!

Blessed Sunday all! Yesterday was "Small Business Saturday" and so my sister Aurora Skye and I ventured out to support the local businesses in our area. This first stop was one of our favorite places around this time of the year - "Murdough's Christmas Barn" ...

Their tree displays are always so BEAUTIFUL! All of them have themes to showcase their many, many diverse ornaments which are placed in baskets in front of the trees ...


Some smaller trees ...

A table for their on-sale everyday items ...

While shopping at another one of our fav stores, "Gem on Penn", we ran into Mr. & Mrs. Claus ... πŸŽ„πŸŽ…πŸŽ„πŸŽ…

A couple of pics of The Sinking Spring VFW's Christmas tree this year. The lights are really cool because they change between the white lights and the colored ...
We have lost so many small (and some long-time big businesses) the last few years, we are happy to see the ones still standing. We are always trying to do our part to help keep them going. 
Have a great rest of the weekend everyone!

  2. The Christmas tree displays are beautiful. When the Eldest lived in Western PA and we visited around Christmas time, she took us to a garden store called Kraynak's which had hundreds of themed trees. People came from all over to walk through their display.
