Welcome to Karins Kottage LInky Party- Christmas week!
I don’t know if you have noticed but I have been slacking on blogging lately. After returning from Europe at the beginning of December I have been under the gun. The day after we got back we had a family party! Then another party for the Young Women in my church. Plus getting everything ready for Christmas has been a trick!
I have realized that blogging takes a lot of time.
Balancing home life, church life and blogging life takes a lot of effort. I just wanted to let know how much I appreciate each one of you.
The fact that you come over and take time to read my blog makes me so happy!

I am a sucker for Christmas tree charcuterie tray. Look at all the goodness on this platter!

Karins Kottage Happenings
We have been busy with our family and having fun.
We held our annual Sugar plum fairy dinner with our grandkids and daughters and son in laws.
Then I held a fun Young Women’s church activity on how to make Christmas pancakes.
It was so much fun!
The girls really got creative in making their pancakes.
This was the winning pancake! Grandma got run over by a reindeer!
I hope you enjoy the party! I can’t wait to see what you will be sharing this week!

Karin, thanks so very much for featuring my holiday tablescape and the generous comments you made about it! Blogging is a lot of work, and frustrating at times too. I don’t know how you do all you do with the Italy project, grandkids, church volunteering, etc.! I struggle to keep up my blog and I don’t have near as much as you to juggle. Wishing you the happiest of holidays!
Debbee You are the best! It is taxing at time for sure. At times I think I need to take a long break and then I come back and start posting again. I have been at this for over 12 years now which is kind of mind boggling to me. I really appreciate all your support each week. I hope you have a wonderful Christmas in every way.
Hugs,
Karin
Thanks so much Karin! You have been a busy gal, I’m sure your Christmas will be very Merry!
Hi Jenna! Merry Christmas my friend! I hope yours is the best Christmas yet!
Hugs,
Karin
