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

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!
