Warmest thoughts and best wishes for a joyful holiday season #Giveaway


As the year comes to an end I like to take some time to reflect on the what this year has encompassed. There have been many joys and some heartaches, this year has also shown me how fragile life really is. I am grateful for all the new friends I have made and saddened by ones that have passed. I lost two very special people in my life this year and while it is extremely hard to deal with I know in my heart that they are watching over me and we will meet again.



On a lighter note, I will be running a giveaway to thank you for being a loyal follower so be sure to enter and invite some friends as well.

Wishing you and your loved ones peace, health, happiness and prosperity in the coming New Year.

    We celebrate Christmas this time of Year!!😍 We do have many traditions! My favorite is collecting mistletoe with the kids! We bag it up all pretty & let the little ones sell them for a dollar each to earn money for Xmas presents & to buy blankets tots & food for a couple local shelters! We've celebrated this tradition for over 35yrs! Its the Best!!😍

      My kids would be so jealous, we do open a few from family members on Christmas Eve I make them wait until Christmas Day to open the majority of their presents.
