Running into another blogging friend!

Yesterday I happened to be off both jobs, so I finished up some crafts that I have been working on.

I will share those pictures later. I had to take a break, I get frustrated stuffing body parts, so I decided

to ride over to Jean of "Prim Crafts" Shop. She always has the best prim goodies and really reasonable

prices. I was wanting everything. But told myself I would only get one little treasure. She had a Santa

with tea light that I fell in love with. Well it just so happend that Jean came to her booth, we were

talking about her little prairie doll and soldier journal that she has listed on her blog. Both totally

awesome by the way. That journal looks soooo authenic and the prairie doll the cutest!

 Well what did Jean do, put took the price tag off of the prairie doll and gave her to me, she

said she was going to hang it on my door anyway. I could have just cried. I am so fortunate

to have such awesome prim friends. I love her Jean. I feel so blessed to live near Jean,

I feel like her and I have known each other for years. She is the sweetest and most caring, talented

person!! If you ever get the chance stop by her shop or visit her blog.

Meeting a fellow blogger!

I was fortunate enough to attend the Christmas craft show at explo land in Fishersville, Va.

It was awesome, so many wonderful prims. I was thrilled to be able to meet, Tina of "The Burlap Owl"

her prims are awesome, but so much better even in person. I bought me a snowman girl and one of

her dolls. This is my Christmas gift to myself. He He Tina, is a lovely talented lady, it was wonderful

to meet her. I wanted to buy so many things, but after all the pondering, decided on something from Tina.

Some Christmas Decor

I have been soooo busy, I have really been neglecting blogging. But I don't have time with working two jobs.

I have been doing a little crafting, but everything is laying there half finished. I miss stopping by your blogs

and leaving comments. But I do read them and smile and think of my prim friends often.

Here are a few photo's of my decorating and then off to work. Have a wonderful day!

Happy Thanksgiving!

I have been really sick this week and it is my year to have Thanksgiving dinner, my sisters and I take turns.

Well finally last evening I started feeling a little better, so my turkey is in the oven and I am ready to roll.

 I want to wish all of my prim friends a wonderful and safe Thanksgiving Day.

 I have so much to be thankful for my religious freedom, my family, my jobs, my home, and my prim friends,

this is just naming a few things, I could go on and on and  on.

  My daughter is the most awesome mommy, I am showing a picture of a craft that she did

with Cole and Riley yesterday! Aren't these the cutest turkeys made out of apples.

Have a Happy Thanksgiving!!!!!

Anniversary!

November 17th. was Ronnie and my 32 Anniversary. Wow, where have the years gone, we grew up

together. He He We were both 20 when we got married, I had barely been out of the state of WV.

He was in the army stationed at Fort Belvoir, Va. We were married 3 months before we could save

up enough money for down payments and rent to get an apartment. And the first week, we ate a cheese gift

set that his grandma sent us for Christmas.  I was such a naive country girl when we got married, I remember

one time we were invited to a party.

  Well it was a party like I had never attended before. There was drinking and other things I won't mention,

but you have to rem. that was the seventies man.

 Well I looked at my husband and said that I didn't like that party , where in the world was the cake

and ice cream. He He Being in the army he had been exposed to the world more than I had.

  Now look at us, we have 2 grown children and 3 beautiful grandbabies!! I have so much

to be thank for for. We went from a roach infested pink appliances apartment to a home of our own,

nothing fancy but our part of the American dream.

 Well hubby sent me some flowers for our anniversary and we went to a little country inn for dinner, We had

a relaxing evening.

 Would I marry Ronnie again, yes I would in a heartbeat, do I have any regrets. Well yes I do,

I used to love the Bee Gee's,( you young girls won't know who I am talking about). They came

to D.C. for a concert when my hubby was in the army. We didn't have money to go to the concert, but do

I ever regret not going to see them. I should have borrowed the money. He He

And Ronnie I hope we have another 32 years together.
