Curling Iron Cozy

I made this curling iron cozy as a Christmas gift for my daughter Kelly to use for travel. I

I'm so happy with the way it turned out...just hope it fits HER curling iron!!

Disregard date on photos...someone didn't reset her camera data!

Sophie's surgery scheduled

Disregard the date on the photo. My camera...rather my camera's operator is in error!

Today I called the vet and scheduled our furry baby for her spay surgery.  Why is it that my head "knows" it's the right thing to do, but my heart hates for her to have to have this done.

Next Thursday, January 23, our little girl will have her surgery.  She will spend the night at the vet's and she won't like that, but as my brain tells me, it's the right thing to do.

Merry Christmas

May your Christmas be merry, 

May your heart be light.

May the good Lord bless and keep you this very night. 

Let the warmth of love comfort you,

As you share the magic of Christmas,

May your spirit be fresh and new.

Tonight, Rick and I are home alone, finishing up the things we need to before getting together with all the family tomorrow.  It's so much fun to be together, to watch the grand kids get excited with their gifts and the joy they get from being together with their cousins.

I am so fortunate to have such a wonderful family.

Merry Christmas.

 

Christmas is coming!

Here's a picture of part of our Christmas decorations.  We put these up and  Sophie was "helping" us!  We put up some more lights on the front of the house (to the left), but at this moment, we haven't taken more pictures.

Today Sophie and I were outside and she alerted me that Santa was untethered.  He was laying off to the left, all unhooked except for one tether.  Someone tried to steal Santa!!!

 

Thank heavens that Sophie let me know and saved Christmas!! 

She is truly a very smart girl!

(I'll bet she gets a really good treat in her stocking!)

How can you not smile when this is looking up at you?

Dance like no one is watching

This wall hanging was made for my daughter, Kelly...a gift for her birthday that was on October 17th. 

 

This wall hanging was made for my daughter, Jennifer.  Her birthday was November 19th. 

I hope they both enjoy them and think of me when they look at them.

Sweetest Dog Ever

This is Gracie.  We lost her to bone cancer back in January of this year. We still miss her so much.

We have moved on, we have a new puppy that we named Sophie Grace.

Sophie is a dear puppy, she brings us lots of laughter and a lot of work, but we will ALWAYS miss our Gracie.

We had Gracie for 10+ years and she was such a good dog.

I'll soon post some pictures of Sophie Grace, but this post is to honor and remember Gracie Lou Freebush Burdette.  She was a wonderful addition to our family and she will always bring a smile when we think of her.
