Happy Boxing Day
Happy Boxing Day to all my Canadian friends and family. We boxed up all our Christmas goodies and headed back to the Daisy Patch today. It was good to spend Christmas with my mom.
She constantly amazes me. She hasn't lost her touch when it comes to cooking all our favorite things. Naturally, we did our part to keep her happy by eating them...(the sacrifices one makes for one's mother! ha!)
It's nice to be back home again though to our own little nest and most of all to our own bed!

I'll be home for Christmas.
Over the river and through the woods,
to grandmother's house we go.....
We are hitting the road today to drive to Virginia
Beach to spend Christmas with my mother. All the gifts are wrapped and I'm looking forward to
a quiet Christmas with family.
A special shout-out to daughter Becky for updating the daisy patch. I really like the new look! What a lovely surprise. Thank you so much.
We wish you joyful anticipation, excited reunions, safe journeys, comfort food, and the blessings of the heaven's greatest gift.
"I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is Christ the Lord." Luke 2:9

Sunday Seven....snow flurries
Sunday Seven....Scattered Flurries1. Wednesday we had snow for the first time this season. I love snow especially if I'm at home and can watch it from my warm snuggly nest and not have to drive in it. Unfortunately I had both a doctor's appointment and a dental appointment so was going to have to drive in the slippery stuff.
2. Having just written our Christmas letter I was able to remind Mr. Wonderful that I had totaled the car in February and been hit by a car in May just walking.....was he really sure he wanted me to drive in the snow? Amazingly he decided that he would be happy to drive me to both appointments and held my hand going down the stairs too! (What a good guy he can be with just a little prompting!)
3. For those of you who have noticed that I haven't been around much....my living room has been converted into Advent Ribbon central. We call our home "The Nest" and now with little bits of paper and ribbon everywhere it looks like I'm nesting!
4. Saturday we were able to send out 800 boxes of clothing and blankets to Romania through Operation Blessing. Mr. Wonderful is pretty sore today from all the lifting.
5. We heat our home with an outside wood burner. It has been so nice to be toasty warm and not have to worry about the cost of heating oil.
6. We don't have a fireplace so Mr. Wonderful has been putting on a DVD of a crackling fire with Christmas music. It is relaxing and no mess to clean up.
7. I'm pretty much through with Christmas once I got my Advent Ribbons mailed. I still have about 300 prayer letters to mail but at least it's written and printed.
Hope your homes are warm and bright and that you have special people in your life that add color and fun. Dim the lights, cue the Christmas music, put the fire DVD on play, and snuggle up with your sweetie and a hot cup of coffee with peppermint mocha creamer!

What the Holidays mean to you!
| What The Holidays Mean to You |
 For you, the holidays are about emotional connections and bonds. You are happiest being around those you love. You celebrate the holidays in a minimalist style. You are likely to only give one great present and decorate your house with a few special items. During the holidays, you feel magical. You love all of the decorations and how happy people are. You like to sit back and take it all in. You think the holidays should be nostalgic and sweet. The holidays bring out your inner child. Your best holiday memories are warm and intimate. You remember special moments more than gifts or parties. |
