The cup and saucer ... Fill it to the brim with fresh java please :)

Donna K. Weaver said...

I like the bears. I'm a sucker for bears and mooses. My hubby bought some deer decorations a few years ago but our teenaged boys thought it was funny to always have them humping. We don't put them out anymore. lol

Mary said...

There's no place like Whole Latte Life for the holidays ... I'm loving that cup, too. But the horse is pretty spectacular. I can't choose 1, love em all :)

Beth said...

A beautiful display, but I think the snowflake is especially pretty.

Joanne said...

Donna - Polar bears at Christmas work, somehow. Your bear vote is duly noted!

Mary - Thanks for the festive jingle to accompany our holiday lights tour :)

Beth - It is, very delicate ...

One Minnesota Writer said...

These are gorgeous! I'm especially fond of the bears.

Julie said...

Another vote for the bears. I love all of them though, such pretty photos.

Janet, said...

Somehow I knew you would choose the cup and saucer. I can't choose betwixt and between them, I like them all.

Mary Aalgaard, Play off the Page said...

The cup is the most unique. Love it! But, if I have to pick a fave, it's the horse. Cheers!

Carol Kilgore said...

The snowflake is my favorite.
Happy Weekend!

I like the simplicity of the snowflake (well, I thought it was a star til I read the other comments) but I bet I know who has the coffee cup and saucer.

Joanne said...

One MN Writer - Another vote for the bears!

Julie - Thanks, and the bears are taking the lead ...

Janet - Glad you enjoyed the Whole Latte Life festivities :)

Cafe Fashionista said...

Ooh, I love them all! What unique light displays! :)

Joanne said...

Mary - Put some jingle bells on it and it'd be music to my ears, jingling all the way.

Carol - Happy Weekend to you, too :)

Ellen - I like to think of the snowflake as winter's star ...

Anita said...

Oh man it's a close toss up for me...I love the horse, but the cup and saucer and is unique. Guess I will go with the cup and saucer!

Wendy Paine Miller said...

Am I the only horse vote?

Em-Musing said...

Gotta love the coffee cup...it's unexpected.

Valerie said...

Oh Joanne-that cup and saucer is perfect for you!

I love them all too, but I think my favorite is the snowflake. One of the best things about winter are walks at night in the falling snow:)

Joanne said...

Cafe Fashionista - Thanks!

Anita - It is unique, don't think I've seen one of those before in a Christmas display.

Wendy - No, you're the second so far ...

Joanne said...

Em-Musing - I'll second your vote.

Valerie - I agree. It just defines peace ...

Rosalind Adam said...

I'm not a fan of large displays, especially in front gardens and so I'm going for the star. Yesterday, down our street, a giant illuminated Homer Simpson in Santa outfit appeared. I'm making no further comment!!

Christina Lee said...

My vote is for the cup!!!!

Andrea (Andee) Beltran said...

I'm tied between the polar bears and the cup...I need to find one of those cups for my front yard!

susan said...

I have to agree with Ros about light displays though I can admire the cheekiness of them and the unexpectedness of them [so it is the cup..] but I also worry about light pollution and carbon footprints...sad eh? !

Delisa said...

Hi Joanne, I think I like the horse the best. It reminds me of a beautiful horse statue that is in front of the Hyde Art Museum in Atlanta. I liked the snowflake too. I just finished knitting a pair of gloves and I am embellishing them with crocheted snowflakes. I am going to use a very fine thread in hopes of being able to make them very detailed. I was thinking of using a different snowflake on each glove, since "no two snowflakes are alike". :) Your blog is always such a treat Joanne and I always look forward to reading your inspiring words. I hope you are having a wonderful friday afternoon and that a lovely weekend awaits! Delisa ;)

Joanne said...

Rosalind - Only subtle, softly illuminated displays here at Whole Latte Life for your viewing pleasure :)

Christina - Mine, too!

Andrea - Hm, I need to find one for my kitchen ;)

Joanne said...

Susan - I too like the unexpectedness of some of them. This cup and saucer is bringing lots of smiles :)

Delisa - I like the idea of different snowflakes, keeping the spirit of their individuality going ... And thank you for your kind thoughts.

Nancy said...

I absolutely love the coffee cup. It's so different. All of the lights cheer me up. Thanks for sharing and for visiting my blog.

Sarah Forgrave said...

I'm with you, Joanne...I love the coffee cup, especially if it's filled with a latte. :)

Carolynn said...

Very cool! I think I'd have to go with the polar bears - very seasonal.

Linda said...

The horse! The horse! I want one now.

Melissa Marsh said...

Oh gosh. I like 'em all! The polar bears are pretty special, though.

Melissa Marsh said...

And the horse! Love him, too!

Joanne said...

Nancy - Happy to provide the cheer today :)

Sarah - Definitely. The best!

Carolynn - The bears and cup are running neck and neck.

Joanne said...

Linda - I'll be expecting to see one soon on your blog :)

Melissa - Love your enthusiasm for the Whole Latte Life light display!

Stina Lindenblatt said...

Our local zoo has an amazing light show. I haven't been in years, but maybe I'll have to take the kids this holiday season. :D

I love the polar bears one.

Claire M said...

My favorite? I think I'll go for the snowflake. Quite festive!!

Margaret said...

In honor of you, the coffee cup.

Hilary Melton-Butcher said...

Hi Joanne .. I rather like the bears, then I saw the horse .. and thought that too .. but the cup and saucer for you - full of frothy Christmas java .. Love Donna's comment - cheers Hilary

Joanne said...

Stina - Sounds like a treat for kids of all ages :)

Claire - Aren't they? There were lots of snowflakes where I took this, so it looked very pretty ...

Joanne said...

Margaret - Thank you. A coffee toast to you in return ...

Hilary - Okay, the cup wins. Full of frothy Christmas java clinches it. Unless there's an onslaught of new votes that change my mind.

Journaling Woman said...

ohhh, I can't choose. I can tell you the snowflake is my least favorite, but that's all I can commit to.

Colette Martin said...

All very nice! I am a fan of bears, so that gets my vote.

Liz Fichera said...

The horse! Wait. The coffee cup. No. All of them! I think the lights are my favorite part of Christmas.

Cheryl Wright said...

The cup and saucer. DUUUHHH!

Joanne said...

JW - Well okay. Three out four for faves isn't bad!

Colette - They are cute, in a Christmas-y way :)

Joanne said...

Liz - Yay for Christmas lights :)

Cheryl - I know, I know. I didn't even have to ask, did I?

Jen said...

I love the Christmas Snowflake! Now, I'm just hoping for a White Christmas!

Joanne said...

Jen - Me, too! Let's wish on that snowflake-star :)
