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!
Hello friend! Are things getting 'holiday' busy for you? Today I'm getting my back shots; with that pain relief I'll be able to start cookie baking by Thursday. 🍪
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
Monday is here and we are still remembering the memories we made over the weekend.
We had such a blessed weekend. It started when our neighbors came over for a visit in the backyard. Jessica was pushing Bennett who is 8 and his sister who is 2 in our swing. Their laughter was music to our ears.
Then our adopted family arrived. We had the best time together celebrating 3 birthdays! We went to eat Mexican Food and "visited up a storm". Of course, the Texas Longhorns winning was the cherry on top.
Meet our grandson, Will, who is 6'5" at age 17. Yes he is taller than his dad who loves to mess with him. Yes, I am short!
Yes, Will is taller than his 6' mom! She takes such good care of us and obviously her son too.
Our dog Carly, loves everyone. Will doesn't even fit on the couch. But a fun time is always had when we are all together. Will has learned to tell long stories just like his Grandpa (as I shake my head).
Yes, we are very sad as they drive off because they are about 2 hours away and we don't like to drive after dark any more. We are so thankful every time they come to visit us. Yes, we are...
Be Thankful every day! Tomorrow is a big day for a lot of people!
Thanksgiving!
Is everything ready? Is the food ready to cook? Are the vegetables cut up? Is the house clean?
Come on in as long as you are bringing something to eat and especially dessert.
Now you know that stuff doesn't matter. It is all about family and friends being together. Hey, as long as you are here, will you rake some leaves for me?
May this day bring blessings to you and all of your family and friends. Fategrandma/Pam
