Man, this week's This Is theme threw me for a curve. It took me all evening to figure out something that I could use, what a brain bender!
I could technically use something I got from the USA, since I'm from Canada, but that's just too easy! So, I thought and thought, before I finally came up with these:
Did you spot them?? They are wooden German decorative plates that my In-Laws bought while living in Germany during my Mr's infancy and young childhood. They bought them years ago, and have passed them along to us.
Sorry I don't have a close up of them,they are currently packed away, awaiting their trip up to Canada and these were the best two shots i had of them in my Flickr pool.
Can't wait to see what everyone else came up with!

Hi there chick, thanks for visiting my blog.. sorry you didn't win Coffee Sluts' competition! I was thrilled to win, it's only the 2nd thing I have ever won in my life. AND I don't even know what I won! too funy! Hey my 2 cents worth in relation to potty training: once you start you shouldn't EVER go backwards, or you will undo all the progress you have made. I have raised (still am!) 8 kids... so know a WEE BIT about it! lol
Those are great pictures, that is a really beautiful faily photo of you guys. How nice of you in laws to gie thoose to you, how fun to own something that had a life before it came to your home!
I love things that are passed down, you're lucky to have them :-)
Wow. I'd have to do some real thinking to come up with something... I could do Hawaiian, but I don't think that would count... ;-)
awww so nice of you ILs to pass those treasure to you :) it's ok amber, that you're not able to take close up photos of the ornament. in my opinion, the photo of the ornament as a background to your family photo is just perfect :)
