Annie and Angel Mouse

This is my last Annie for 2011 ~

will be taking a small break until the new year ~

need to clean up the factory ~

refresh my mind and soul ~ take time to enjoy

this special season with my family and friends

God has blessed us with a new addition come July ~

thanking and praising God for a new grandchild ~

praying for a healthy baby girl

but will be just as thrilled with a brother for Dominic

Wishing all a blessed Thanksgiving ~

a holy Christmas ~

and happy New Year ~

special thanks and blessing to all my friends all over the world ~

May God bless you and yours this Christmas and New Year

Holidays

This is such a hectic time of the year ~

Thanksgiving and Christmas are approaching fast ~

I love the time spent with family ~

thanking God for the past year and welcoming the new ~

which brings me to my new Annie

Christmas "JOY"

This is one of my last Annies for the year ~

I have some orders to finish for Christmas ~

then I am looking forward to enjoying the holidays ~

Thank you all for visiting and for your comments ~

you are all a blessing

have a great week and God bless.

Electricity and HEAT!!

Saturday we had a early snow storm ~

it brought over a foot of snow and loss of power to thousands ~

we were without power for over 56 hours ~

also lost 1/3 of a beautiful 50 year old magnolia tree

~ part of a cherry and linden tree too ~

God was pruning our trees for us ~

I am thanking Him for electricity especially heat!

the worst part was being so cold

~ too cold to even sew by hand ~

wrapped myself in 3 blankets and wore mittens to read by candle light ~

the university where I work is still without power

so another praise to God ~ I can now stay home and sew

Thank you Lord!

Lesson learned this week

be thankful in all things ~ especially things taken for granted

God bless ~ thanks for visiting and keep warm!
