I hope all of you had a wonderful Thanksgiving Day. Although it was just my family of four and my mother-in-law at home for The Big Dinner, we had a very nice time together. My husband is an only child and I come from a very large family -- last Christmas there were about 64 family members at my brother's house. Such a huge contrast from my husband's family of two!
I am especially happy and looking forward to Christmas this year. I haven't felt this way since my mother passed away four years ago. (She was admitted to the hospital on Christmas Day and passed away on New Year's Day.) Since that time, the holidays have been very sad for my family and me. Also, six years ago, one of my best friends died of cancer on Christmas Eve. On New Year's Day this year, my 18 year old nephew also passed away. With all that, the holidays have been something of a dark cloud, but this Thanksgiving, I was so thankful that God has eased the pain and made it easier to deal with and has made me realized how blessed I am to have such a loving family.

By the way, I don't know how many of you go shopping on Black Friday, but I'm debating whether or not I should go -- I've never, ever gone shopping the day after Thanksgiving, but I'm actually considering it this year. So, if any of you have suggestions or stories about it, let me know. Thanks and have a safe weekend!

Adela, I am so glad to hear you are looking forward to the holidays this year. May God be with you and Bless you this holiday season!
I love your Marshfellows! This one is so cute! I can't wait to see what you draw next with your tablet.
Take care!
Adela -- I am so excited that you are going to make Marshfellows available. I LOVE them!! I think you've found a whole new creative outlet--digi stamps! :-)
I am thanking the Lord that He has brought you comfort. May your holidays be filled with much love and joy!!
Blessings and Hugs!
I LOVE this card!!! What a cute / Fun image!!! I love the colors, she is so yummy and perfectly sweet!
I DID NOT go out today. I never do,. This year my dog has been sick and we were at the vet all day. They were going to have to du surgery, but she started not being able to breathe and her heart slowed. After a few other tests and draining the fluid built up in her, she is home and hopefully will stay well.
I have been wanting a tablet (which and where did you get yours ... email me if you want ... I have been searching, but not sure what to get)
This is too cute. Love the MarshFellow snow ma'am. Can't wait to get it.
This is so cute!
