Friday is for the Dogs and it will soon be Christmas. Are all your pets ready for their presents?
Is this a real dog or is it a stuffed animal? It does look a lot like one of our dogs. So cute!
Maybe you are getting a new puppy for Christmas. Talk about cute! There is nothing like a baby.
And yet, there is nothing like the unconditional love of the old family pet that is always happy to see you with lots of kisses.
Especially when they know in their heart that you are Santa to them every day of the year. My hubby is the "Snackie Man." However, I have been known to sneak a bite of what I am eating to them from time to time!
I know that by now, your tree is up and decorated and there are probably presents wrapped under it... that is if you are putting a tree up this year.
This is a beautiful tree but there isn't much room under it for presents.
But Christmas is about so much more than presents. We celebrate the birth of the baby Jesus and give thanks for His sacrifice to forgive us for our sins.
Remember this Thursday to share His light, joy, love, peace, humility, kindness, and generosity with others when you look at the star on the top of the tree.
Taco Tuesday! Even Santa and the Reindeer like tacos. They are getting excited about their trip and then a vacation.
Do you put snow tires on and off all winter or do you leave them on? So glad we don't get that much snow.
I bet Santa is glad he flies above all the traffic. In DFW every morning there is FREE parking around the metroplex.
So if you are out and about this week please remember what this season is all about... sharing the love that Jesus has for every person and creature that He created.
Monday is a wonderful day! Did you buy the presents or wrap the presents? I know you probably did both.
I believe in Santa but only after at least 2 cups of coffee. Have you ever dressed up as Santa Clause?
Years ago, we would dress up for the Live Nativity for our church. It was always a fun time.
The month of December and Christmas is the best time of year for doing all kinds of things and making lots of memories.
I wore an elf hat just a week or two ago at our Ed Jones Christmas Dinner and got hugs from some of our clients. Whatever you do this week, share your love with others.
Good Morning! Next Sunday will be Christmas Eve. Can you believe it?
Will your house smell good every day between now and Christmas? I love the smell of my cinnamon essential oils!!!
Are they kids swinging from the wreaths yet? Or are they asking to open the wrapped presents under the tree?
Are your cards in the mail? I actually made mine this year with help from my friend Pam in Australia who sent me some giraffe designs. You should have seen me trying to get the paper in the copy machine the right direction to print it as a fold over card.
Are you getting snow already or do you want it to snow? I hope you get your wish and have lots of fun playing in it and making memories!
Why is Friday such a special day? Thursday is now Friday Eve! I like every day of the week. Each day has its own uniqueness!
The entire month of December is unique. There is shopping, decorating, wrapping, etc. every day is fun and special. I love giving all year long.
Jesus and His love is all year long after all. I love seeing the joy and surprise of an unexpected gift every month.
Is there something special under your Christmas tree already? I love the look of wonder on children's faces.
I am not a very good decorator though. I usually end up with a mess to clean up in every room. Christmas is a time for peppermint, cookies, candy, cakes and all deserts! Not for the pets but for husbands... oh that is every month too!
Middle of the week and we will be going to an early evening dinner tonight. I am getting excited now.
It is nice to get together for Christmas with others you don't see often during the year.
I love seeing the trees decorated all around town and the trees in people's windows in the evenings.
Do your animals get in trouble at Christmas? Are they on the naughty list or are they perfect like mine... not. I hope you and your family and pets have a very Blessed Wednesday. Sending you hugs too!
Sunday is upon us again and that means the weekend is half over already. Where did the first 1/3 of December go?
One day after we did the yard, the WIND blew most of the remaining leaves off the trees. Soon there will not be a leaf left and we still have 2 months of winter to come.
What a great month this is to celebrate though. A month to see excitement as children's eyes light up and also to celebrate Jesus' birthday.
Share the blessings of this month and Christmas every day with those you meet and remember to visit those that are lonely. Most of all, share your Love!
Saturday and I am having College Football Withdrawals! It will be about 4 weeks until my Texas Longhorns play. UGH!!!
Yesterday and today we had and will have warm temperatures but we also have 20+ mph winds on and off. Thank goodness they settle down at night.
I had a very busy week, especially for me. This time of year do you find people trying to be more kind or less kind? I try to take a deep breath and be more kind every day. Most days it works but some days it doesn't.
Some days things just don't go right, everything you do is a setback. So you just put on a smile. Somehow things get better and you laugh over the day you had.
So if you ever have a troubling day, look around and find something that makes you smile. I hope you have a great Caturday and Weekend being kind to everyone you encounter.
We made it to Friday again. In the blink of an eye Christmas will be over and it will be a brand new year. Today, I am sending you pictures of one of my favorite places that is beautiful all year round. We rode motorcycles down the coast of Oregon and around Crater Lake and back up to Portland.
Have you ever been there? It is a beautiful state to visit. Those are not my pictures as it was a long time ago. My pictures are somewhere on this computer though. Whatever you do, have fun and make great memories!
I am going to the Edward Jones Christmas dinner this evening. I am excited to see some of my favorite clients.
Yesterday we mowed (vacuumed) the yard and all the bags are now ready for pick up. We are supposed to be near 70 today but VERY windy. I am sure the yard will be full again.
The backyard cleans up nice. The poor plants are so confused with warm during the day and then mid 30's during the night. I think Saturday will be COLD north winds.
My orange climbing Rose bush that is over 20 years old is loving this weather. I hope you are enjoying your weather. I am sending you Blessings & Hugs!
My goodness, I miss knowing you were here and I was worried about you. So glad to see you are back. I always say a prayer for you when I come to your page. Blessings & Hugs! Pam
